Dear Friends,
In our factory, we do carry out a grinding operation with the help of Portable Hand Grinders. We all know that, “We should never use the Grinder without the guard”.
However, some times our operators remove the guards saying that while grinding the jobs which are having notches this guard prevents the approach of Grinder.
Till date this practice has not caused any injury.
Now, as a Safety Professional, I always have a concern about this unsafe practice.
We have given lot of thoughts on this. However, we could not arrive at a practical solution on this.
I urge upon all of you to help in this regard.
Regards,
Shashikant.

Dear Shashikant,
I can't believe this as a safety man - how you allow your worker to do an unsafe job. Yes, it's equal to putting your worker in an IDLH situation.
You should explain to your employees what the direct and indirect causes of machine guarding are. They are not educated; that's why our company appoints us to educate our employees - this is our job.
Direct causes:
- Losing his finger; it will never grow back.
- Losing his job; he can't work without a finger.
- Company accident rate increases.
Indirect causes:
- It reflects on the employee's family.
- It affects the employee's children's studies and future.
- Insurance, compensation, etc.
I have added only a few points of direct and indirect causes.
Note, it's for you, Mr. Shashikant:
If accidents happen, one day production will be lost for our company.
- Transportation charge (vehicle charge/operator charge)
- Medical charge
- Insurance
- Investigation time (During this time, you will do something for the company)
- Our HR time will be wasted (He works for employee insurance, ESI, etc.)
Mr. Shashikant, just think - it indirectly affects your company's economy. It's all controlled by 30 minutes of training; you can educate your employees within 30 minutes.
Just think, if 3 to 4 employees are injured due to inadequate machine guarding in one week, think about what's going to happen?

Dear Raghu,
What Mr. Shashikant says is a practical problem. You may not be facing the same issue in your plant. Therefore, I believe your response is not a solution to his concern.
I also sometimes face this problem. The workers and the engineers themselves have explanations and reasons to justify what they are doing. Sometimes, for grinding in odd locations, they say that the grinder guard is obstructing. In practice, this is a fact. I am compelled to allow the grinder to work without the wheel guard in place when the situation demands it. I advise him to take extra precautions. That's it.
What alternative arrangements can we, as safety professionals, suggest to them? Please come forward with your valuable advice.
@Shashikant, thanks for coming forward with this query.

Dear Dipil,
I disagree with your comment, Mr. Dipil. Then, why have we created the rule?
Every problem/query has a solution in the world. Everyone has reasons/explanations and tries to prove themselves right.
For example:
Last week in our project, some erectors were erecting the scaffold, almost 98% complete (I am not signed on TAG; it's still in progress). One of our GDAs visited our site; he knew me very well (as I had worked with him in a previous project). He pointed out that the scaffold bearer (scaffolding tied with the steel column of the building) was slightly bent. I quickly replied to him that our building's steel column is not straight, but the scaffolding is in PLUMB (Finally, it has been fixed). Everybody has explanations/reasons.
I have some ideas:
Suggestion box:
Write the problem/query on the DFAC (dining facilities) board with a suggestion box. Announce some good prizes/awards for the best three suggestions. You will see within a week that you will get the perfect solution. (Management should support you in this case)
(Even the workers and the engineers themselves can give some suggestions)
Mr. Dipil, just think for a minute if he loses his finger, THAT'S IT. "Follow/Obey the rule, whatever it is, NO Excuses."
Rules are created for US.
Waiting for your reply, Mr. Dipil!
Dear Seniors,
I am waiting for your guidance on this matter. Educate me if I am wrong.

Dear Raghu,
I agree with your comments. Every problem has a solution, and we try to find the best solution for some practical problems through this forum. In our plant, we have a suggestion scheme in place where a token gift of 500 Rs. is given for implemented suggestions and 100 Rs. for each suggestion received.
I believe there might be small diameter grinders and wheels available in the market that could serve the purpose of grinding in awkward positions with the wheel on. I will reach out to M/s. Bosch, and if I receive any solutions from them, I will share them here on the forum.
Raghu, the main point is that I have not delved deeply into this topic because it occurs only once in a while, perhaps 1 or 2%. However, as you mentioned, in this 2%, anything can happen. As a Safety Professional, we must prevent anything that is unsafe. But before taking action, we should have sufficient justification for why and the best way to perform the job safely.
I hope you understand the message I am trying to convey. Let's work towards reaching a common conclusion.

Dear Mr. Raghu and Mr. Dipil,
Thank you for sharing your views on this topic.
Dear Mr. Raghu,
It's not the case at all that our operators don't want the guard in place. Most of the operators are Diploma Engineers. They are very much aware of the Safety Rules and the Consequences of not following the safety rules, as we regularly educate and train them.
Again, time and money are not an issue. We spend a lot of time training and discussing safety matters. Even the top management supports us a lot.
We do have a suggestion scheme, but in this issue, it has not helped. We have brainstormed a lot on this topic. However, we could not arrive at a practical solution.
We have to carry out this operation once a week for 15 minutes, but as rightly said by both of you 'anything can happen during this period.' Hence, we are searching for a practical solution.
Dear Mr. Dipil, we have tried the pencil grinder as well. However, it has not served the purpose 100%.
Dear Mr. Raghu, rightly said by you – Every Problem Has a Solution. But Everybody Cannot Have the Solution for Everything. As a Safety professional, you have to suggest practical solutions to your employees.
That is why I have started this thread.
Thank you once again for your participation.
Let's hope for active participation from other members as well.

Dear Shashikant,
I have discussed with my technical team and also had a conversation with the supplier who is providing us with the grinders. I received the following common comment as below: "We have to select the right grinder for the job; it's not that we remove the guard to suit the grinder for the job."
So, I believe you should contact suppliers like Bosch and discuss your issue. Their technical team will visit and analyze the location where you are facing this difficulty. Then, they will provide you with advice on the appropriate type of grinder. Simply make the purchase and put it to work.
Please share your thoughts.
Dear Raghu: Great job! Let's maintain the momentum.
Dear TS: Thank you for your encouraging words. Please continue to participate and motivate us for active engagement.

I have a suggestion, Dipil Kumar.
I am not sure about Shashikant's location [the visit by any technical team could take a while if it's remote--my personal experience]. But if YOU are in a town/city where you can have easy/better access to the local representatives of companies like Bosch, etc., why not talk to them and get some e-brochures or website links of their relevant products and pass them on to Shashikant. To an extent, this could help him find a solution FASTER.

Dear All,
It's good to see more people getting involved in the discussions. Normally, none of the moderators were actively participating in the discussions under the forum title "Safety Health of your Employees." However, I request you to take a look at our discussions and provide your valuable feedback. This will surely help improve the forum day by day.
A lot of new members, especially Safety Professionals, are joining the forum. Hopefully, we will succeed in making this a reliable platform to find solutions to the queries of our forum members regarding Safety, Health, and Environment.
We are waiting for the response from Mr. Shashikant and the Bosch team through Raghu to conclude this discussion.
In the meantime, you can find great technical details on the Bosch website. Click the link below to browse through different types of grinders:

Dear All,
In my experience, this problem persists everywhere where grinding in corners has to be done. The guard obstructs the grinding in corner solution. Small angle grinders are available and those can be used in such locations. Skilled grinders shall be used with all PPEs.

Hello to all,
I am working as an HR professional in an athletics equipment manufacturing company. In my company, in the stitching department, tailors avoid using needle guards. They give the excuse that while stitching the turned corners of the fabric, the needle guard restricts the approach of their finger, which supports the fabric at the corner. Consequently, the stitching on the corners lacks a finishing touch. However, without the guard, there is a risk of injuring their fingers. A recent incident occurred, but the tailors are still continuing the same practice with the same excuse.
I need advice on how I can make them understand the importance of using the needle guard.

Vinex
