Road Safety

This gone week, we witnessed the news of the tragic death of Mr Gopinath Munde in what looks like a minor car accident. And you know what? Nothing would have happened to him if he were wearing a seat belt (in the rear seat where he was sitting)...

We take these small things so lightly...never realise their potential impact on our lives and those of our near and dear ones.

-If you dash a car head-on at a speed of 20 kmph, the impact is equivalent to falling from 1st floor of a building on your chest! That will easily break your ribs, putting you on bed at least for a week.

-If your speed is 30 kmph, the impact is equivalent to falling on your chest from the 2nd floor. It will send you to an ICU.

-On a news program last night an expert on the subject said that if you dash at a speed of 60-which is so common!-the impact is that of falling from 11th floor! No chance of reaching a hospital...

Let' buckle up while sitting in a car-even in the rear seat. And put on our helmet when biking. please do not say "I am only going to the corner of the street". Or, "I drive very slow". A crippling, even fatal, mishap can occur at any speed, right outside our home...

Take care, and educate those around you.

Best Ever First Aid Manual (Booklet)

Dear Friends

Health & Safety is one of the critical factor as far as Human v/s workplace is concerned. Being a Lead auditor of ISO 14001 (Environment Management System) as well as OHSAS 18001 (Health & Safety Management System),  Vijay K Saini  keep on updating himself as well as the community around for the new and unknown know how in the Health & Safety Domain.

Vijay stumbled upon a unique booklet compiled on the subject of first aid  titled as "FIRST AID Made Easy"   by  Mr. Nigel Barraclough  (SR Para CertEd)  under the banner of  Forest Stewardship Council (https://ic.fsc.org/index.htm)  copyright 1998  (ISBN-l 3:  978-0-9552294-0-4
ISBN-l 0: 0-9552294-0-5 )

This is the best ever  FIRST AID MANUAL  I have come across in my 20 years career.  This manual explains almost all first aid situations with visuals and  words in such a way that First Aid can be learnt on its own by going through this Manual.

Since I am not the copyright owner of this manual so I can not give it for downloads  but making this available for viewing citing the proper owner information given above - for making the subject and know how worth it. Thanks Nigel for a nice piece of work.
