Monitoring Techniques

Introduction

The main purpose of this paper is to make discussion that how the monitoring techniques can helps in improving the health and safety in the workplace, and what human factors contribute in achieving these techniques.

Discussion

Accidents are the normal routine in the workplace. There are always many causes behind the accidents in the work place. The main problem is to understand and get a complete knowledge about the factors causing accidents. These factors could be either the defective design, poor maintenance, attitudes to health and safety in organization, inadequate training or supervision, poor work, planning and organization (Booth, 2009, p. 45). Thus, it is very necessary for the organization to understand these factors in order to maintain the health and safety of the individuals in the workplace. The main factor that can help in understanding these problems and issues is the monitoring techniques.

The main objective of the monitoring system is to provide information on the evolution of the phenomenon so that we can take action: we fear that acceleration is more or less brutal of the phenomenon (the break), which may endanger views human or exceeding the permissible limit of deformation on a book (Westphal, 2003, p. 415). The provisions included in surveillance include essentially control (visual or measuring instruments) the extent to which succeeded a recount and an interpretation that leads eventually to arrange security.

In order to manage the health and safety in an organization, it is necessary to make the supervision of the specific site. The site supervision includes:

a)the client monitoring (mayor of the municipality concerned, manager of the book ...), which decides threat of surveillance, defined objectives; finance the establishment and operation of the system.

b)the specialist geotechnical slope stability, which analyzes the phenomenon determines its evolution cinquefoil, carries out the control measures or their implementation, interpreting the measures, alert the security officer if necessary.

c)technical specialists to install the system, its maintenance, in site measurements to see whether they are very specific.

d)recipients of the alarm messages

Predictive maintenance and condition monitoring are two tools widely used by maintenance departments around the world as a powerful tool for increased productivity and competitiveness (Kleiman, 2001, p. 34). The selection of equipment to be included in these programs depends on an analysis of its criticality, its cost, its safety and environmental requirements, expected reliability and the impact of their failure. In industries such as power generation and petrochemicals, vibration analysis technique has historically been selected to monitor the condition of major critical components of rotating equipment.

Monitoring techniques are aimed at measuring physical variables that are indicators of the condition of the machine, and by analysis to make the comparison with normal values to determine if it is in good condition or deteriorating conditions. This strategy assumes that there are measurable and observable characteristics that are indicators of the condition of machinery. The main purpose of the monitoring techniques is to:

a)Detect conditions that can cause failure - (proactive)

b)Detect problems in the machinery - (predictive)

c)Avoid catastrophic failures - (predictive)

d)Diagnosing the cause ...
