1 Date SAFETY MEETING Topic: Punctures Cuts Presenter Accidents Reviewed: Changes in Safety Policies/Procedures Reviewed: _ Attendance (Signatures Required): _ Next Safety Meeting: Punctures and cuts are common on-the-job injuries. Punctures occur when objects such as splinters, nails, glass, and sharp tools such as scissors and knives pierce the skin and cause a small hole. Cuts occur when sharp objects, including knives, scissors, sharp metal edges, and glass slice through the skin superficially or into the deeper layers of fat, tendons, muscles, and even bone. The best way to deal with cuts and punctures is to avoid getting them in the first place. Wear appropriate clothing on the job such as sturdy shoes or work boots, long sleeve shirts, and long pants. Consider sturdy coveralls to protect your skin from sharp and flying objects. Wear personal protective equipment (PPE) appropriate to your job tasks such as gloves, safety glasses, work boots, gauntlets, and chaps. Follow safe work practices and know how to use your tools properly. Inspect, maintain, and replace your tools when necessary. Always use the correct tool for the job. Ensure that blades on cutting tools are sharpened; dull cutting surfaces can cause accidents. When working with sharp tools, always know where both of your hands are at all times. Practice good housekeeping with your sharp and cutting tools by sheathing and storing them properly. Place tools far back on workbenches and shelves, not against the edge where someone walking by might get stuck. If you have to pick up broken glass or metal shards, use a broom and a dustpan or pieces of cardboard. Never pick up broken glass with your bare hands. Dispose of sharp objects properly in rigid sided containers that will not get punctured and spill. Label these containers with the word Sharp to warn coworkers of the hazard. Never reach into a garbage can with your hands or try to tamp it down with your hands or booted feet in case someone has improperly disposed of a sharp object or even a syringe. To properly dispose of syringes, pick them up with tongs and place them into hard plastic medical waste containers. If you receive a puncture or cut on the job, notify your supervisor immediately. If you can, gently wash the area with soap and water. To stop bleeding, apply gentle pressure to the wound with clean gauze, cotton, or other absorbent material. When bleeding has stopped, apply an antibacterial ointment and a clean dressing to the wound. If you cannot stop the bleeding, if the wound is very large, or if you are impaled with an object, seek medical attention. Watch your wounds for signs of infection including fever, severe pain, redness beyond the wound edge, swelling, warmth, or pus drainage. Get medical attention immediately if you suspect infection. (Continued on back )...your partners in improving workplace safety..

2 If your wound was caused by stepping on a nail or other sharp object in contact with the soil, you may be exposed to the bacteria that cause tetanus. Consider getting regular boosters for tetanus every five to ten years. If your wound was caused by a needlestick, seek medical testing and treatment due to a potential exposure to bloodborne pathogens. Consider a Hepatitis B vaccination if you are exposed to potential needlesticks. Any way you cut it, puncture and cut wounds expose you to pain and potential infection, so avoid them through good work practices!

5 Date SAFETY MEETING Topic: Pinchazos y Cortaduras Presenter Accidents Reviewed: Changes in Safety Policies/Procedures Reviewed: _ Attendance (Signatures Required): _ Next Safety Meeting: Los pinchazos y las cortaduras son lesiones comunes en los sitios de trabajo. Los pinchazos ocurren cuando objetos tales como astillas, clavos, vidrios o herramientas filosas (como tijeras o cuchillos) perforan la piel y causan un pequeño agujero. Las cortaduras ocurren cuando objetos filosos, incluyendo cuchillos, tijeras, bordes metálicos filosos o vidrios cortan la superficie de la piel o con más profundidad llegando a tejidos grasos, tendones, músculos y hasta a huesos. La mejor forma de tratar las cortaduras y pinchazos es evitarlos. Use la ropa apropiada en su trabajo, tal como calzado resistente o botas, camisas de manga larga, y pantalones largos. Considere overoles resistentes para protegerse la piel contra objetos filosos o que vuelan. Use los equipos de protección personal (PPE, por sus siglas en inglés) apropiados para las tareas que hace, tales como guantes, anteojos de seguridad, botas de trabajo, guantes reforzados (gauntlets) y chaparreras. Cumpla con las prácticas seguras de trabajo, y conozca cómo usar sus herramientas correctamente. Inspeccione, mantenga y reemplace las herramientas cuando sea necesario. Siempre use la herramienta correcta para cada tarea. Asegúrese de que las cuchillas de las herramientas de corte estén afiladas; las cuchillas sin filo pueden causar accidentes. Al trabajar con herramientas filosas, siempre esté consciente de dónde tiene las manos en todo momento. Practique el buen orden y aseo con las herramientas filosas metiéndolas en sus fundas y guardándolas debidamente. Coloque las herramientas en la parte trasera de los anaqueles y bancos de trabajo, no cerca del borde donde alguien que pasa pueda lesionarse. Si usted debe recoger vidrios rotos o esquirlas metálicas, use una escoba y recogedor, o un pedazo de cartón. Nunca recoja vidrios rotos con las manos. Deseche los objetos filosos debidamente en recipientes con lados rígidos que no se puedan perforar ni causar derrames. Rotule estos recipientes con la palabra Sharp para advertir a otros trabajadores del peligro. Nunca meta las manos a un bote de basura ni trate de apisonar la basura con las manos o las botas en caso de que alguien haya tirado objetos filosos a la basura o incluso hasta una jeringa. Para desechar debidamente las jeringas, recójalas con pinzas y colóquelas dentro de un recipiente de plástico rígido para desechos médicos. Si usted sufre un pinchazo o cortadura en el trabajo, notifique a su supervisor de inmediato. Si puede, lávese suavemente el área con agua y jabón.

Si no se logra parar el sangrado, o si la herida es muy grande, o si tiene un objeto metido en la herida, procure atención médica. Observe que la herida no presente indicios de infección, incluyendo fiebre, dolor fuerte, enrojecimiento alrededor de la herida, inflamación, calor o pus. Procure atención médica de inmediato si sospecha que tiene una infección. Si la herida fue causada por pisar un clavo u otro objeto filoso en contacto con la tierra, usted puede haberse expuesto a la bacteria que causa el tétanos. Considere recibir un refuerzo a su vacuna contra el tétanos cada 5 a 10 años. Si la herida fue causada por una aguja hipodérmica, procure atención médica para hacerse análisis y recibir tratamiento contra posibles agentes patógenos presentes en la sangre. Considere recibir una vacuna contra la hepatitis B si usted está expuesto a pinchazos de posibles agujas hipodérmicas. Sin importar cómo sucedan, las heridas por pinchazos o cortaduras lo exponen a dolor e infección potencial, así que se deben evitar cumpliendo con las buenas prácticas de trabajo!
