SOP Cordless Concrete Vibrator
Workplace Health and Safety has conducted a comprehensive job safety analysis for operating a cordless concrete vibrator with risk control measures developed for identified hazards per WHS hierarchy of controls.
WHS consultation with employees on health and safety matters to identify potential hazards with operating a concrete vibrator and ensure cordless tool safety
WHS consultation and participation processes ensure adequate health and safety communication
Pre operational checks on equipment per concrete vibrator safety checklist, e.g. inspect cordless concrete vibrator and equipment, and cordless battery and charger are free from damage such as battery leaking fluid
Cordless battery charging when using a cordless charging station shall be based on a concrete vibrator manufacturers recommendation
Cordless tools and equipment, e.g. cordless concrete vibrator identified as damaged shall have an out of service tag placed on it with procedures for reporting faulty equipment in the workplace implemented
Safety guarding must be fitted to a concrete vibrator for protection where there is an exposed nip point. Only remove equipment guards for cordless tool storage
Do not alter or modify a cordless concrete vibrator, e.g. concrete vibrator handle removal will affect tool safety
Inspect concrete vibrator needle for signs of wear and damage per vibrator safety checklist, replace if necessary and dispose of a damaged concrete vibrator needle appropriately
Concrete vibrator operation per cordless concrete vibrator SOP focuses on WHS issues and the implementation of control measures to reduce risks
Personal decontamination procedures to be implemented where exposure to silica has taken place, e.g. correct method for removing PPE
Potential environmental hazards in the workplace, e.g. confined space and working at heights
Work at height on ladders, aluminium mobile scaffold and elevated work platforms when operating a concrete vibrator
Hazardous chemicals and hazardous products used in connection with using a concrete vibrator
Hazardous manual tasks in connection with compacting concrete using vibrator
Vibrator PPE, e.g. personal protective equipment clothing, ppe ear protection, protective hand gear, work safety boots, eye protection safety glasses
Health and safety training for workers, e.g. tool safety training
Workplace housekeeping per housekeeping policy and procedures
Legislative and regulatory requirements for compliance with WHS legislation, e.g. work health and safety regulations, managing electrical risks at the workplace code of practice and power tool safety standards
Monitoring controls, e.g. assessment and review the effectiveness of control measures
Tasks and activities in connection with operating a cordless concrete vibrator
Concrete Vibrator Safe Operating Procedure
How to Use a Concrete Vibrator
Cordless concrete vibrator SOP shall assess the risk of high-risk activities with operating a concrete vibrator.
High-risk work activities that may expose workers to WHS hazards are likely to include but not be limited to:
Plant and equipment used in the work task, e.g. cordless concrete vibrator
Pre start inspection of cordless concrete vibrator
Change concrete vibrator needle
Cordless battery charging using a cordless battery charger
Other hazards with using a cordless concrete vibrator
