Dear All,

Can anyone share any presentation, poster, or a short video explaining what "line of fire" is, how injuries can occur due to it, and how to identify and prevent working in the line of fire?

Line of Fire

"Line of fire" is a common term used to describe a situation where a worker is exposed to a hazardous condition, such as something potentially falling on their body or head. For example, a worker standing in a loading and unloading area under a crane load is said to be "in the line of fire." Similarly, any fire or welding sparks falling on a worker's body while they are working are also considered part of the line of fire.

A person standing in the middle of traffic is in the line of fire, as is a worker on a construction site where no cover net is provided. Additionally, if a worker is standing in front of a place where a chemical splash could occur and is not wearing protective body cover and a face mask, they are considered to be in the line of fire.

Hi Hansa,

Great to see your post after a long time here. You can use this NAPO film (https://www.napofilm.net/en/napos-fi...s/introduction) as an example of Line of Fire. The part showing in which the person is under the suspended load.
