Kugenzura ingufu ziteza akaga: akaga katunguranye

Umukozi arimo gusimbuza itara ryo hejuru mu cyumba cyo kuruhuka. Umukozi azimya itara. Abakozi bakora ku ngazi ya metero eshanu batangira gusimbuza itara ryo hejuru. Umukozi amaze kurangiza guhuza amashanyarazi, umukozi wa kabiri yinjiye mu cyumba cyo kuraramo cyijimye. Kubera ko atazi akazi kari gukorwa ku itara ryo hejuru, umukozi wa kabiri yahinduye itara kugira ngo acane itara. Umukozi wa mbere yakubiswe n'amashanyarazi gato, bituma agwa ku ngazi. Mu gihe cyo kugwa, umukozi yaramburaga ukuboko kwe kugira ngo yitegure kugwa, bituma ukuboko kuvunika. Imvune yasabaga kubagwa, maze umukozi arara mu bitaro ijoro ryose.

Nubwo ibintu byabanje ari ibintu by’ishingiro, uburyo bwo gufunga no gufunga bugaragaza neza ingaruka zishobora kubaho iyo ingufu ziteje akaga zitagenzurwa. Ingufu zishobora guterwa n’amashanyarazi, ingufu za mekanike, ingufu z’umwuka, ingufu za shimi, ingufu z’ubushyuhe cyangwa izindi ngufu. Iyo zidagenzuwe neza cyangwa ngo zirekurwe, bishobora gutuma ibikoresho bikora mu buryo butunguranye. Muri uru rugero, umukozi utanga urumuri yagombaga kuba yarashyize uruziga ku cyuma gihagarika uruziga ku ruziga maze agatangirainzira yo gufunga no gufunga (LOTO). Ingufu zitangwa kuri solitaire breaker zishobora gukumira imvune iyo switch y'urumuri ifunguye. Ariko, kuzimya umuriro kuri circuit breaker gusa ntibihagije.

Iyo abakozi bo hanze bakora ibikorwa biri mu rwego n'ishyirwa mu bikorwa ry'iri hame, umukoresha uri aho n'umukoresha wo hanze bagomba kumenyesha buri wese uburyo bwo gufunga cyangwa gufunga. Ni ngombwa kandi gushyiraho ibikoresho bikoresha uburyo bwiza nk'imfunguzo cyangwa ingufu zo mu bwoko bw'ijambo ry'ibanga kugira ngo igikoresho cyo kwimura ingufu gikomeze mu mwanya mwiza kandi hirindwe ko imashini cyangwa ibikoresho bikoreshwa.

Ibisabwa na OSHA bijyanye n'amahame ngenderwaho yo kugenzura ingufu ziteza akaga biboneka muri 29.CFR.1910.147. Aya mahame asaba abakoresha gushyiraho politiki ya LOTO mu gusana no kubungabunga imashini n'ibikoresho, iyo gukoresha imashini cyangwa ibikoresho mu buryo butunguranye cyangwa gutangira, cyangwa kurekura ingufu bibitswe bishobora kwangiza abakozi. Abakoresha bagomba gutegura gahunda no gukoresha uburyo bwo gufata ibikoresho bikwiye bifunga cyangwa gushyira ku bikoresho ibikoresho ku bikoresho bitandukanya ingufu, no guhagarika imashini cyangwa ibikoresho kugira ngo hirindwe ko abakozi batangira, batangira, cyangwa barekura ingufu mu buryo butunguranye kugira ngo hirindwe ko abakozi bakomereka.

Ikintu cy'ingenzi muri gahunda ya LOTO ni politiki yanditse. Byongeye kandi, amahame asaba abakoresha gushyiraho uburyo bwo kugenzura ingufu, bivuze ko uburyo bwo kuzimya no gusana ibikoresho bigomba kwandikwa. Urugero, niba icyuma gikonjesha gikeneye gusanwa, inzira yo kuzimya umuriro igomba kuba ikubiyemo izina/aho igice cy’icyuma gikonjesha giherereye hamwe na nomero y’igice cy’icyuma gikonjesha mu gice cy’icyuma. Niba sisitemu ifite amasoko menshi y’ingufu, gahunda yo kugenzura igomba kugaragaza uburyo bwo gutandukanya amasoko yose y’ingufu. Mbere yo gutangira akazi ku mashini cyangwa ibikoresho bifunze cyangwa byanditse ku rutonde, abakozi bagomba kwemeza ko ibikoresho byakuweho kandi bizimye.

Ibindi bintu by'ingenzi bigize gahunda ya LOTO birimo amahugurwa y'abakozi no kugenzura buri gihe inzira za LOTO. Amahugurwa arakenewe ku kazi kandi agomba kuba arimo amahugurwa mu kumenya amasoko y'ingufu ziteza akaga, ubwoko n'ingano y'ingufu ziboneka mu kazi, hamwe n'uburyo n'uburyo bikenewe mu gushyira ingufu mu mwanya wazo no kuzigenzura. Iyo urwego rw'akazi ruhindutse, gushyiraho imashini nshya cyangwa impinduka mu mikorere bishobora kuzana ibyago bishya, hakenewe andi mahugurwa.

Igenzura rya buri gihe ni igenzura rya buri mwaka ry’izi nzira kugira ngo harebwe niba inzira ari zo zikora cyangwa hamenyekane impinduka cyangwa ibikosorwa bigomba gukorwa kuri izo nzira.

Nyiri terminal cyangwa umukoresha agomba kandi gusuzuma amabwiriza ya LOTO y’umukozi. Ba rwiyemezamirimo bo hanze bagomba gushyira mu bikorwa amabwiriza yabo ya LOTO mu gihe bakorana n’ibikoresho nk’amashanyarazi, HVAC, lisansi cyangwa ibindi bikoresho. Igihe cyose abakozi bo hanze bakora ibikorwa bikubiye mu rwego n’ishyirwa mu bikorwa ry’amahame ya LOTO, umukoresha uri aho n’umukoresha wo hanze bagomba kumenyesha buri wese uburyo bwo gufunga cyangwa gufunga.
