Group Project Introduction: This report is based upon the current and potential problems observed during the visit of the city zone apartments at Liverpool Street, Auckland CBD. The observations done by the team to conduct the evaluation of the problem related to facility management. Our report discusses that organisation needs to properly facilitate the operations of the building. This report includes occupational safety aesthetic effects, Contingent liability and health issues. The major problems, which were analysed by the team during the visit, were ventilation problem in rubbish room, car parking and fire exits (staircase). The second problem is in the context of water seepage in the area of car parking. The major effected areas are floor of car parking, walls and celling’s. The third facility management problem of the building diagnosed by the team was security. The building does not have on site monitoring room, dead end signal in the car parking area and reflecting mirrors at the sharp turns in the car parking. The pictures, which have been clicked by the observation team during the problem finding, supporting all the problems and these pictures are being attached as evidence of proof with this report. The main aim of this report is to analyse the current problems, which are being faced by the city zone apartment users, and to provide with effective as well as recommended solution to these
required to prevent any accidents, they are reviewed by each member of staff and then once
This paper examines the implication to establish measures that provide safety and health directives concerning areas involving painting operations, gas and electric welding, cutting, brazing, or equivalent conflagration or spark generating operations towards safeguarding personnel and property in contrast to heat, developed gases and fumes, electrical shock, and radiation meant for all personnel responsible for ground work, managing, and accompanying painting, welding and cutting operations (Mroszczyk, 2012).
Health & Safety Assignment 2: Identifying Hazards Task 1 P3 There are multiple ways to sufficiently identify hazards in the workplace, some of these methods include:-Viewing the accident report book -Perform a risk assessment -Ask experienced employees -Ask employees to report hazards -Talk to the Health & Safety Manager Viewing the accident report book is a good way of identifying risks, it points you in the right direction in terms of danger and can highlight areas where most accidents are occurring, using this book can underline places to look for recurring hazards and so aid in identifying risks. Performing a risk assessment
This is why I feel there needs to be major changes in the way we educate the current and future construction workers so that they can truly understand and make sure to make construction safety one of there main focuses. One way of transforming the way construction safety is tough to others is by creating an updated and effect online platform construction safety platform which will educate employees in a very effective way. this online platform will not only go into detail in regards to previous and new construction safety procedures, but it will also make sure that each person who goes through the program comes out understanding all of the important construction safety tips. The first unique feature that the program will include is mandatory pop quizzes. These pop quizzes will come up throughout each safety chapter of the online program and will test each individual with specific questions based of off each of the specific chapters they are focusing on. Each chapter will have 20 pop quiz questions that will be asked throughout the chapter. These questions will later be tallied up for a grade. It is mandatory that you score a b- or higher on each of the chapters total pop quiz questions. If you do not do this, then you will be forced to have to go through the chapter again and be asked new questions. This process may seem difficult, but it will truly educate each and every employee who follows the online program since they will want to be focused and understand each of the
This week's question concerns liability and moral responsibility in consumer products. As the question is multi-part, the answer will be likewise. To begin, the first question addresses who should be liable for the voluntary actions of others. Specifically, if substantial information concerning the hazards of a product or service has been offered to the consumer, who is to blame if someone is injured? Similar to most questions derived from this course, the answer is "it depends."
The phrase hazard rate seems to jump right off of the page. In order to view this phrase in a medical sense, the dissection of both words should be accounted for. Hazard is defined as “an unavoidable danger or risk, even though often foreseeable” (Dictionary.com). Taking a step back, the term foreseeable seems to connect with at least one cause of Hypoxia. Notably abusing drugs to a point where someone overdoses, seem to be a foreseeable circumstance that is avoidable. Equally important, the definition of risk is as stated, “exposure to the chance of injury or loss; a hazard or dangerous chance” (Dictionary.com). Under those circumstances, if you combine both of those single definitions into a master definition, the creation of hazard risk

Contingent Liability is a condition that refers to the possibility of a future event happening and addresses the responsibility of the party liable should the event take place. In today’s real estate market both sellers and buyers may have contingencies stated in the terms and conditions for selling and purchasing a home. The most common contingent liability are guarantees to debt.
It has the responsibility to ensure that there is the potential risk of continuing hand in the management and ongoing implementation of risk control measures to curb their evaluation results. In addition, profitability continued to assess the performance of the property to ensure that the rent has been through professional management is still in the peak value guarantee. This minimizes the landlord rent arrears, can be used to settle down because of the possibility of cash flow from these obligations to pay debt. Comprehensive analysis of the risk and return profile of the display, it is possible to rent in this sense, since the building is located adjacent community facilities, such as hospitals, restaurants, shopping malls and even in the future to obtain a high market value. This is an indicator, it enjoys the benefits of security, so tenants willing to rent more space in this building, because they ensure its continuing operations. However, a potential threat to the existence of competition, it is possible to eliminate some of the facilities located in the business. This has been from the fact that they are located close to the rent, such as rent and other business operations may conduct business with the nature of this ongoing facility.This same drawing is a manageable risk property management can be used may
In the developed countries, most of the building quality are poor, ever under a lot of policy, standards and guidelines for indoor environment, Reinhard K.F. (1996). Also, he has mention that a healthy and comfortable indoor environment is important issues for our quality of life, which is affect our health, comfort, security and productivity. According to Baechler.M.C (1991), when people have some symptomatic, which are consists of a group of respiratory, general and skin symptoms. They may have a sick building syndrome (SBS), it caused by the building and services.
A company is liable for injuries caused by its product if it is shown that the product was defective or harmful. The party, that will be held liable, must have manufactured or sold the product and a causal relationship must exist between the product and harm. 78 A.L.R. 2nd 460 (originally published in 1961). In this case, Ford installed a seatbelt in its Taurus that, according to an expert, was defective and led to the plaintiff’s harm. In Indiana the Indiana Product Liability Act rules, in which a plaintiff must prove that the product arrived in a defective condition that made it unreasonably dangerous. Ind. Ann. Code § 34-20-2-1 (West 2015). Product liability may still apply to the manufacturer even if the manufacturer has used reasonable care or the user was not the one to buy the product. Ford installed seatbelts in the Taurus with the intent of providing a safety mechanism for the Taurus’ buyers. Although Ford used
In its most basic form, risk can be defined as the likelihood or possibility of the occurrence of harm. According to Hughes and Ferret (2009), "a risk is the likelihood of a substance, activity or process to cause harm." Similarly, Barnard (1998) identifies risk as the likelihood of an individual being harmed by a hazard. According to the author, walking (or running) across a wet floor can be regarded a risk. In the context of health, risk can be taken to be the likelihood of an individual or a number of individuals experiencing a health effect regarded adverse as a result of exposure to a hazard. Adverse health effects include but they are not limited to decreased lifespan, disease, or bodily injury.
As previously noted, we anticipate that the instances of car accidents will decrease with the use of HAVs. Nonetheless, car accidents are always a possibility and car accidents with HAVs pose the unique question, “Is the driver liable or is the manufacturer liable?” HAVs will ultimately develop into more autonomously functioning vehicles, operating without much human assistance. If such an autonomously functioning car were part of a car accident, the manufacturer 's liability would certainly increase. However, the first commercially available HAVs will involve the vehicle sharing the driving responsibility with the human driver. Establishing liability in this gray area is a challenge that Maryland will take on. Also, car insurance premiums will likely increase for the consumer, which is an important consideration because that translates to less disposable income in the pocket of the driver.
