OVENS
Ovens are the workhorses of the bakery and pastry shop and are essential for producing
the bakery products. Ovens are enclosed spaces in which food is heated, usually by hot
air. Several kinds of ovens are used in baking.
A. DECK OVENS are so called because the items to be baked either on sheet pans
or in the case of some bread freestanding are placed directly on the bottom, or
deck of oven. This is also called STACK OVEN because several may be stacked
on top of one another. Breads are baked directly on the floor of the oven and not
in pans. Deck oven for baking bread are equipped with steam ejector.

DECK OVEN
RACK OVEN
2. MECHANICAL OVEN The food is in motion while it bakes in this type of oven. The most
common types are a revolving oven, in which his mechanism is like that of a Ferris wheel.
The mechanical action eliminates the problem of hot spots or uneven baking because the
mechanism rotates throughout the oven. Because of its size it is especially used in high
volume operations. It can also be equipped with steam ejector.
3. CONVECTION OVEN contains fans that circulate the air and distribute the heat rapidly
throughout the interior. Strong forced air can distort the shape of the products made with
batter and soft dough.

OTHER BAKING EQUIPMENT
Dutch oven is a thick-walled (usually cast iron) cooking pot with a tight-fitting lid. Dutch ovens have
been used as cooking vessels for hundreds of years. They are called “casserole dishes” in English
speaking countries other than the USA, and cocottes in French, They are similar to both the
Japanese tetsunabe and the Sač, a traditional Balkan cast-iron oven, and are related to the South
African Potjie and the Australian Bedourie oven.

SPECIFICATION OF TOOLS
Kitchen tools make cooking easier. There are different kinds of kitchen tools, utensils, small
appliances and cookware in the market. Each has a different use and function.
A. Knives
Sharp, quality knives are important in the kitchen. They cut better and are easier to work with than dull
knives. Select knives that are light, comfortable and balanced in your hand. It is necessary to have the
following knives in your kitchen:
1. Paring Knife is helpful for peeling fruits and vegetables.

2. Serrated Knife is ideal for cutting bread.
3. Chef's Knife is useful for most cutting and chopping jobs.
B. Cutting Boards
Always keep your counter tops clean and scratch-free. It is important to have separate cutting boards
for meat and vegetables to prevent germs and cross contamination. Cutting boards are made of many
different materials from wood to plastic.
C. Measuring Cups/Measuring Spoons
Measuring cups is a necessity in the kitchen and of various sizes which come in glass, metal or
plastic. An angled measuring cup is easy to read when measuring liquids. Measuring spoons are also
important for determining the correct amount of dry or wet ingredients.
D. Spoons and Whisks
Long-handled, wooden or plastic spoons are necessary for mixing and stirring. Other useful spoons
are slotted spoons for draining, ladles for serving soups and gravies, and pasta spoons for keeping pasta
separated. Whisks are useful tools for mixing sauces, pancake batter, and whipping egg whites. An
electric hand mixer is important for mixing cakes and whipping potatoes.
E. Tongs and Spatulas
Tongs are useful for many jobs including turning food and come in a variety of sizes. Spatulas come
in different materials like metal or plastic and their purpose is to slide under food like burgers, cookies or
pancakes.

34
34
F. Mixing Bowls
Mixing bowls are essential in every kitchen. A variety of sizes is useful for mixing ingredients and also
for serving food. These come in many colors and materials from stainless steel, to plastic or colored
glass.
G. Colander
You need to have at least one colander for draining liquid from canned or cooked vegetables and
pasta. Use it for washing fresh fruits and vegetables. It's a good idea to select a colander with stand, so it
doesn't sit in the liquid which is draining in the sink.
H. Miscellaneous Tools
A grater for shredding, shaving and zesting is a versatile tool to have in the kitchen. Also, useful is a
can opener, bottle opener. A potato masher and vegetable peeler are always part of a well-stocked
kitchen. A kitchen timer is important for timing recipes accurately. A meat thermometer will assure the
proper temperature for food safety.
I. Safety tools of and equipment
The safety of tools and equipment is not only the concern of the management, but of the workers who use
the equipment as well. Proper maintenance and safety of tools and equipment are important for the
following reasons:
1. Good quality of service. Modern equipment has built-in controls, thermometers and timing and
regulating devices. A breakdown of these devices may affect the quality of the food being
prepared and caused slowdown in production and service.
2. Sanitation. Mechanical function of equipment like the refrigerator and freezers encourages the
development of disease causing bacteria. Negligence of their cleanliness leads to the growth of
food-borne bacteria.
3. Fire prevention. Grease and dirt that gather in stove rims and hoods are fire hazards. Daily
inspection of grease collecting equipment will minimize the danger of fire.
4. Safety. Most food service accident happens in the kitchen. This is due to lack of knowledge and
training of food worker in the use of tools and equipment.
5. Less cost of production. Expenses will be minimized if tools and equipment are in good
condition.
Safety measures in the use of tools and equipment.
1. Store knives, choppers and cutting blades in designated places. Label them.
2. Repair broken tools and equipment immediately.
3. Check wiring of electrical equipment regularly. Report kitchen equipment that are not functioning.
4. Handle fragile tools or those tools made of glass with care. Those with breaks should be
discarded.
5. Store tools and equipment in a clean dry place. Do not keep them when wet.

TYPES AND USES OF CLEANING MATERIALS/DISINFECTAN T
Disinfection does not necessarily kill all microorganisms, especially nonresistant

bacterial spores; it is less effective than sterilization, which is an extreme physical and/or
chemical process that kills all types of life.
1. Natural Cleaning Materials

39
39
a. Vinegar
Vinegar is a great natural cleaning product

as well as a disinfectant and deodorizer. Mix a
solution of 1 part water to 1 part vinegar in a clean
spray bottle and you have a solution that will clean
most areas of your kitchen. Don't worry about your
kitchen smelling like vinegar. The smell disappears
when it dries. You can use it in the kitchen for
cleaning the stove top, appliances counter tops,
and floor. Improperly diluted vinegar is acidic and
can eat away tile grout. Never use vinegar on
marble surfaces.
b. Lemon juice
Lemon juice can be used to dissolve

soap scum and hard water deposits. Lemon is
a great substance to clean and shine brass and
copper. Lemon juice can be mixed with vinegar
and or baking soda to make cleaning pastes.
Cut a lemon in half and sprinkle baking soda on
the cut section. Use the lemon to scrub dishes,
surfaces, and stains. Mix 1 cup olive oil with ½
cup lemon juice and you have a furniture polish
for your hardwood furniture.
c. Baking Soda
Baking soda can be used to scrub surfaces in much the same way as commercial
abrasive cleansers. Baking soda is great as a deodorizer. Place a box in the refrigerator and
freezer to absorb odors. Put it anywhere you need deodorizing action.

40
40
d. Bacteria-free sponge and some muscle
Sponges are great scrubbers which help to disinfect your kitchen by cleaning away
the food debris that bacteria thrive on. To keep your sponges disinfected, wet them down
and place them in the microwave and heat for one minute each.
e. Borax.
This common household product is another natural cleaning powder, and like baking
soda (but stronger) acts as a kitchen disinfectant and stain remover. Borax is also used to
kill mould and mildew spores while removing their stains making it great for mopping floors.
f. Tea tree oil
This natural, essential concentrated oil from the tea tree is a natural disinfectant
which removes mould and mildew while also working to remove build-up from dirty kitchen
surfaces. It’s completely non poisonous and perhaps a bit more expensive than other
natural cleaning products but worthy due to the aromatic fragrance that will freshen up areas
as well as clean them.
Other uses of disinfectants

1. Use a plain, liquid, vegetable-based soap or rub a sponge with bar soap. You may
add a few slices of lemon to the water to help cut grease and make dishes smell like
lemon.
2. Use soap, water, and borax or sodium carbonate monohydrate (washing soda).
Wash large surfaces with a solution of one-half cup borax dissolved in one gallon of
hot water.
3. Oven Cleaner

41
41
 If there are spills, wipe away along with any grease after each meal. Periodically
clean with baking soda and water.
 Remove baked grease or spills by scrubbing with a nonmetallic metal brush using
a paste made of baking soda, salt, and water.
 Another option is to mix two tablespoons of liquid dish soap, two teaspoons of
borax into two cups of warm water. Apply and let sit for 20 minutes and then
scrub.
 Do not use any abrasive cleaning materials on self-cleaning ovens.

HAZARD AND RISKS IDENTIFICATION AND CONTROL
There are lots of things that may affect the health of a person, such as his environment,
his lifestyle, etc. There are many who are not aware that work is an important determinant
of health. It can influence health in a positive or in a negative way. Are you comfortable at
work? How safe is your workplace? Do you think that you are giving all you have for your
work but it seems that it never is enough?
These are just some of the questions that you need to ask in order to assess whether
your workplace is healthy or not. A place that is safe, healthy and work-conducive entails
more productivity. In fact, with a healthy workplace you will be doing more work with less
effort.
Hazards and Risks in the Workplace
Hazard is a term used to describe something that has the potential to cause harm or
adverse effects to individuals, organizations property or equipment. Workplace hazards can
come from a wide range of sources. General examples include any substance, material,
process, practice, etc that has the ability to cause harm or adverse health effect to a person
under certain conditions.
Types of workplace hazards include:

1. Safety hazards: Inadequate and insufficient machine guards,
unsafe workplace conditions, unsafe work practices.
2. Biological hazards: Caused by organisms such as viruses, bacteria, fungi and

parasites.
3. Chemical
hazards: Solid, liquid, vapor or gaseous substances, dust, fume or mist

56
56
4. Ergonomic hazards: Anatomical, physiological, and psychological demands on the
worker, such as repetitive and forceful movements, vibration, extreme temperatures,
and awkward postures arising from improper work methods and improperly designed
workstations, tools, and equipment.
5. Physical hazards: Noise, vibration, energy, weather, electricity, radiation and

pressure.
6. Psychological hazards: Those that are basically causing stress to a worker. This
kind of hazard troubles an individual very much to an extent that his general
wellbeing is affected
What are examples of hazards?

Workplace Hazard Example of Hazard Example of Harm Caused
Thing Knife Cut
Substance Benzene Leukemia
Material Asbestos Mesothelioma
Source of Energy Electricity Shock, electrocution

Condition Wet floor Slips, falls
Process Welding Metal fume fever
Practice Hard rock mining Silicosis
What is risk?
Risk is the chance or probability that a person will be harmed or experience an

adverse health effect caused by a hazard. It may also apply to situations with property or
equipment loss. For example: The risk of developing cancer from smoking cigarettes could
be expressed as "cigarette smokers are more likely to die of lung cancer than non
smokers”.
Factors that influence the degree of risk include:

• how much a person is exposed to a hazardous thing or condition; and
• how the person is exposed (e.g., breathing in a vapor, skin contact), and how severe
are the effects under the conditions of exposure.
Risk assessment. Risk assessment is the process where you:

 identify hazards;
• analyze or evaluate the risk associated with that hazard; and
• determine appropriate ways to eliminate or control the hazard.

What is an adverse health effect?
• A general definition of adverse health effect is "any change in body function or the
structures of cells that can lead to disease or health problems".
The following are adverse health effects.
• Bodily injury
• Disease
• Change in the way the body functions, grows, or develops
• Effects on a developing fetus (teratogenic effects, fetotoxic effects)

OSH INICATORS
Occupational safety and health (OSH) is a cross-disciplinary area concerned with

protecting the safety, health and welfare of people engaged in work or employment. The
goal of all occupational safety and health programs is to foster a safe work environment. As
a secondary effect, it may also protect co-workers, family members, employers, customers,
suppliers, nearby communities, and other members of the public who are impacted by the
workplace environment.
Management Commitment
There is commitment to achieving high standards of OSH performance through

effective safety management.
1. The employer identifies his general responsibilities regarding occupational safety

and health laws.
2. Everyone in the organization understands the general requirements of occupational

safety and health laws.
3. The employer is actively involved in OHS management.
4. A competent person in the organization coordinates safety management activities.
5. There is occupational safety and health policy that is up- to- date.
6. Everyone in the organization knows about the occupational safety and health
policy.
7. Adequate resources are provided for all aspects of OHS management.
8. All employees have sufficient time to carry out specific tasks related to occupational
safety and health.
9. All employees are accountable for safety and health in their area of of
responsibility.
OSH signs or symbols in the workplace

61
61
Safety signs are the alert signs that help in indicating various hazards ahead. These
labels help in reducing accidents at workplace and on road side. It is a process of
providing information or instructions by means of placing required signboards.
Different types of hazards required different types of safety labels. There are several
safety labels available in the market. All that is need is to figure out the right label as per
requirement.
Safety Signs consist of words, messages and a pictorial symbol with variety of
shapes, size and colors. Each label color is standardized and reflects a specific
meaning.
Sign colors defined :
• Red color reflects immediate hazardous situations that will cause death or other
serious injuries like Danger signs and Fire symbols.
• Orange Color represents a potentially unsafe situation that could cause serious
injury and indicated by warning signs.
• Yellow color used to alert against unsafe practices, which if not avoided, may
results in minor or moderate injuries like Caution Signs.
• Green color indicates the emergency egress location, first aids and other safety
equipment.
• Blue color is used to convey safety information.

PERSONAL HYGIENE AND PROPER HANDWASHING
Personal hygiene are health practices and habits which enable one to stay physically
healthy. This means keeping oneself clean to avoid transfer of harmful bacteria especially in
food preparation.
Ways to achieve personal hygiene.
1. Regularly wash and cut your hair to keep a neat appearance. If you have facial hair,
you can save money by maintaining it yourself with a set of quality clippers.
2. Visit the dentist at least once a year (twice a year is optimal). Though you are
brushing every day, your dentist will correct any dental problems you have.
3. Bathe every day before work, or every night before you go to sleep. This will help
you cleanse/remove body odor.
4. Wear deodorant or antiperspirant

daily if you tend to sweat heavily.
Some people can actually get
away with not wearing deodorant,

66
66
but most people, especially those who have heavy duty jobs or work in warm
climates, benefit greatly from it.
5. Scrub your hands with soap and water before you handle any food especially when
you have just come from the toilet, after touching your hair or other parts of your
body, and after your hands cover your mouth or nose when you cough or sneeze.
Be sure to clean under fingernails where dirt and bacteria tend to accumulate.
6. Trim your nails; especially if you work in the food service .This will help keep your
hands much cleaner and prevent the spread of the germs to the food.
7. Keep hand sanitizer and facial tissues near your work desk. If you do not work on
your desk, put travel sizes of these items in your pocket. Sanitizer and tissues will
come in handy when you're ill and can also prevent the spread of germs resulting
from touching items such as money and computer keyboards.
8. Use a separate towel or cloth for drying dishes, wiping countertops, and wiping
hands.

67
67
9. Avoid working with food when you have an open cut, sore, boil, or infected wound in
your hands. Pus and other liquids secreted by the wound contain millions of harmful
bacteria that can cause food poisoning.
10. Keep hands out of food as much as possible. Otherwise, wear disposable gloves.
11. Avoid smoking while preparing or handling food as ashes may drop into the food.
12. Wear suitable clothes at work. Do not wear clothes with long sleeves when working
with food. Wear also comfortable and clean shoes. Be sure aprons are always clean.
Proper Hand washing

68
68
Washing is the single most effective way to prevent the spread of infections.
"Germs" (a general term for microbes like viruses and bacteria) can be spread casually by
touching another person. You can also catch germs when you touch contaminated objects
or surfaces and then you touch your face (mouth, eyes, and nose).
"Good" hand washing techniques include using an adequate amount of soap, rubbing
the hands together to create friction, and rinsing under running water.
The following are different situations where people can pick up "germs".
• Hands are visibly soiled.
• After using the washroom (includes changing diapers).
• After blowing your nose or after sneezing in your hands.
• Before and after eating, handling food, drinking or smoking.
• After touching raw meat, poultry, or fish.
• After handling garbage.
• Visiting or caring for sick people.
• Handling pets, animals or animal waste.
Ensuring that employees wash their hands properly after using the washroom is very
important in reducing disease transmission of stomach "flus" (which really is not a "flu" or
influenza) and other gastrointestinal infections. Using soap and lathering up is very
important (rinsing hands in water only is not as effective). Use comfortably warm, running
water. Hands should be washed for a minimum of 15 -20 seconds - longer if the hands are
visibly oiled.
What is the right way to wash your hands?
• Wet your hands with clean running water (warm or cold) and apply soap.
• Rub your hands together to make lather and scrub them well; be sure to scrub the
backs of your hands, between your fingers, and under your nails.
• Continue rubbing your hands for at least 20 seconds.  Rinse your hands well
under running water.
• Dry your hands using a clean towel or air dry

PHILIPPINE OSH STANDARD
OSH Standards are mandatory rules and standards set and enforced to eliminate or
reduce occupational safety and health hazards in the workplace. It aims to provide at least
the minimum acceptable degree of protection that must be afforded to every worker in
relation to the working condition and danger that may arise by reason of his occupation
The provision of OSH Standards by the State is an exercise of the police power, with the
intention of promoting the welfare and well-being of workers. All establishments, workplaces
and other undertakings are covered, including agricultural enterprises whether operating for
profit or not, except:
• residential places exclusively devoted to dwelling purposes;
• those directly engaged in land, sea and air transportation, except their dry dockers,
garages, hangers and maintenance, and repair shops and offices; and
• the activities of a lessee regarding the safety of the mining claim or lease, including
mines safety, mineral conservation and pollution in establishments or work places
falling under mining industry.
The Secretary of Labor and Employment, through the Regional Director or other
authorized representative enforced the OSH Standards
These are the duties of the employers and employees in relation to enforcement and
compliance with the OSH Standards in the workplace.
• Adopt administrative policies on safety in accordance with the provisions of the

Standards.
• Report to the Regional Director or his/her duly authorized representative the policies
adopted and the safety organization established.

EFFECTS OF HAZARDS IN THE WORKPLACE
The effect that occupation may have on a worker's health is dependent on the
exposure (expressed quantitatively) to relevant agents, and on host factors. Taking a history
is often very important in identifying relevant exposures and linking them to ill-health. The
concept of "cumulative exposure" i.e. a quantitative measure of the intensity of exposure
and the duration of exposure is important, since generally it is the main determinant of risk.
Health may be harmed by occupational exposures in many different ways, and practically
any organ system can be affected.
Some examples follow - (starting with the lungs and skin, the organs of first contact for
most chemical occupational exposures).
Asthma e.g. from glutaraldehyde in health care workers, (the image shows a hospital
radiographer loading film processing chemicals, through a closed system, since emanations
of sulphur dioxide or of glutaraldehyde can cause asthmatic symptoms). Other causes of
asthma may include flour, or other agents in bakeries, or di-isocyanates in twin-pack spray
painting.
• Allergic alveolitis (e.g. Farmer's lung from fungal spores)
• Pneumononiosis (e.g. silicosis caused by inhaling quartz)
• Cancer (e.g. from asbestos inhalation)
Musculoskeletal
• Tenosynovitis and similar conditions
• Back pain from manual handling
Nervous and Mental

76
76
• Peripheral neuropathy (e.g. caused by lead or n-hexane)
• Nerve deafness induced by noise
• Mental ill-health (e.g. caused by stress, or by chemical exposures such
as mercury)
Blood/Marrow
• Anemia (e.g. caused by lead, which may impair the synthesis of normal
hemoglobin). A plastic anemia may be caused by high exposures to benzene
• Leukemia (a cancer of certain white blood cells) caused by benzene.
Genitourinary and Endocrine

• Kidney damage caused by some solvent exposures, or by cadmium
• Bladder cancer e.g. caused by beta naphthylamine, or compounds of similar
structure (generally aromatic amines, with an aromatic group in the 'para' position to
the amine)
• Infertility caused by some chemical exposures e.g. male infertility caused by DBCP
(dibromochloropropane). A range of chemicals have been implicated in the potential

77
77
for endocrine disruption and/or effects on reproduction such as phthalates, glycol ethers,
and organophosphates Liver
• Hepatitis (e.g. toxic from some chemicals or viral e.g. in health care workers)
• Cancer (e.g. Vinyl chloride monomer causing angiosarcoma)
Workplace Stress
Stress can be associated with severe physical and/or psychological effects, such as sleep
disorders; fatigue; chronic aches and pains; depression; changes in sexual activity; conflict with
family, friends, and co-workers; weight gain or weight loss; greater susceptibility to injury; immune
system depression; and greater vulnerability to illness and disease.
This is a serious health and safety hazard that can have devastating effects. Stress occurs:
• when there is a poor match between workplace demands and a worker’s degree of control;
• as a result of demands that are placed upon mind and body;
• when employees are exposed to staff shortages, harassment, bullying, noise and other
hazards;
Stress is largely caused by poor work organization factors such as:

• lack of control and conflicting work demands;
• lack of decision-making participation;
• lack of training and direction; unclear work responsibilities;
• privatization, outsourcing, downsizing, mergers, staff cutbacks, and restructuring; and 
overwork and poor work shift schedules.
Cutbacks, privatization, and downsizing have contributed to a heightened sense of job insecurity.
All of these factors cause or compound workplace stress.
The Generalized Stress Response is the phrase used to describe a variety of physical reactions
to stress:
• increased metabolism;
• blood pressure;
• cholesterol and fatty acids in the bloodstream;
• decreased protein synthesis;
• faster blood clotting;
• increased production of stomach acids, blood sugar for energy;
• localized inflammation;
• tensed up muscles; and
• sweating to cool muscles.
Stress affects the physical and psychological health of a person. But it also spills out of the
workplace, negatively affecting members’ family lives. The cumulative effects of stress can be
devastating.
Major outcomes of stress are:

• Psychological disease and social behavioral changes (e.g., depression, anxiety, Heart
disease
• Various physiological outcomes (e.g., headaches and migraines, impaired digestion,
ulcers and diabetes).
• Personal and family life conflict.

78

• Work – related musculoskeletal disorder.
• Burnout
• Synergetic (combined) effects of stress and other diseases (i.e., stress can make worse
other diseases and disorder.
• Critical incident stress.

SAFETY REGULATIONS IN THE WORKPLACE
Safety regulations in the workplace need to be in place in order to assure the

workers that they are cared for.
The four industries wherein maximum workplace mishaps take place are:
1. service industry;
2. construction and building industry;
3. retail stores; and
4. manufacturing industry.
It is absolutely essential for a worker to be aware of the safety regulations in the

workplace. Every organization should have a system for safety. This system should revolve
around the following safety regulations and guidelines:
On Job Hazards
The safety regulations in the workplace should keep

job hazards on top priority.
• The floors have to be checked for tripping hazards.

• All the walkways should be well-lit and in case
there are blind spots, all the employees and
workers should be aware of them. This could help
avoid untoward collisions and accidents.
• Cords and wires should be secured away from the
walkways and the corridors. All electric wiring should be covered with appropriate
material.
• Fire safety regulations and electrical safety regulations should also be made.
Health Hazards
Worker-spread illnesses pose a great risk the health of

the entire workforce. It is required by the management to advise
all the workers to stay home if they are sick as a part of
workplace safety regulations This policy should not be altered
and the leave taken by the employees during such a time should

84
84
be a paid leave. This will make sure that they don't come to work for the fear of losing their
salary for the day. Good hand washing and disinfecting toiletries should be available at the
workplace for the workers.
Chemical Hazards
Chemicals should be rightly labeled to avoid any

detrimental mistakes. Mixing of the wrong chemicals can cause
a terrible chemical reaction which could be hazardous to all the
employees. There should be measures to taken to ensure that
only chemicals that are safe be kept together and stored
together. The supervisor should have full working knowledge of
the chemicals to ensure that no mistakes happen due to
ignorance or negligence. The worker should be guided on the
proper chemical storage procedures.
Reporting System
To ensure the best safety regulations in the workplace, there

needs to be a reporting system in place. Injuries, illnesses and
accidents on job should be reported in time. All illnesses should be
reported as well. This is to ensure that the organization has the
medical records of the employee in case of an emergency. The
Occupational Safety and Health Department Administration (OSHDA)
has come up with several safe ways to maintain this system.
Reference to OSHDA should be made while developing the reporting system and putting it
in place.
Whistleblower
Being a tattletale is not by choice of most employees. However, in case the behavior
of certain employees is not safe or hazardous, it should be reported to the appropriate
authorities. This can help increase the safety standards of the organization on the whole
and work as a great safety regulation in a workplace. In fact, this whistle blower system also
ensures complete attention of the employees. This can assure that they report any accident
or hazardous incident to the management in time. It fosters a no-negligence environment
that thrives on participative behavior.
Most organizations make sure that these health and safety regulations in the
workplace are put into use. However, in the absence of professionalism at work, it becomes
a little difficult to get the right results.

CLEAN AIR ACT
The Clean Air Act is the name of any of several pieces of legislation aimed at
reducing smog and other types of air pollution and less damage of the ozone layer.
Philippines: Clean Air Act
The Clean Air Act outlines the government’s measures to reduce air pollution and
incorporate environmental protection into its development plans. It relies heavily on the
polluter pays principle and other market-based instruments to promote self-regulation
among the population. It sets emission standards for all motor vehicles and issues
registration only upon demonstration of compliance. It also issues pollutant limitations for
industry. Polluting vehicles and industrial processes must pay a charge. Any individual,
enterprise, corporation or groups that installed pollution control devices or retrofitted its
existing facilities to comply with the emissions standards in the Act can apply for tax
incentives of accelerated depreciation, deductibility of R&D expenditures or tax credits on
the VAT of the equipment and are exempt from real property tax on the machinery or
equipment used to comply. It also establishes a R&D program for air pollution reduction
mechanisms and technologies. It bans incineration and smoking in public places. At the
local and municipal levels, governments are allowed to set emission quotas by pollution
source, and the development of recycling programs is encouraged.
The Food Processing Concept (FPC) Clean Air Act
It has been developed for use in large variety of baking and cooking processes. The
system provides the perfect combination of vapor extraction and cleaning. The FPC Clean
Air Act is able to reduce vapor pollution from the emission by 80%. The pollution from the
vapor emissions is transformed into biodegradable residue, which benefits the environment,
your employees and neighbors and your profits. The unit has variable ventilators that pulls
out the vapor released in the cooking process, so that the working area can be kept free
from any irritating and greasy air.
The FPC Clean Air Act can be used in a combination with a variety of food
processing equipment including:
• oil fryers
• hot spiral oven
• hot air tunnels
• grill markers
• infrared ovens
• open flame system
• belt grill systems
• steam tunnels

ELECTRICAL AND FIRE SAFETY CODE
Fire safety refers to precautions that are taken to prevent or reduce the likelihood of a
fire that may result in death, injury, or property damage, alert those in a structure to the
presence of an uncontrolled fire in the event one occurs, better enable those threatened by
a fire to survive, or to reduce the damage caused by a fire. Fire safety measures include
those that are planned during the construction of a building or implemented in structures
that are already standing, and those that are taught to occupants of the building.
Threats to fire safety are referred to as fire hazards. A fire hazard may include
situations that increase the likelihood of fire or may impede escape in the event a fire
occurs. Fire safety is often a component of building safety.
Key elements of a fire safety policy
• Building a facility in accordance with the version of the local building code.
• Maintaining a facility and behaving in accordance with the provisions of the fire code.
This is based on the occupants and operators of the building being aware of the
applicable regulations and advice.
Examples of these include:
• Not exceeding the maximum occupancy within any part of the building.
• Maintaining proper fire exits and proper exit signage (e.g., exit signs pointing to them
that can function in a power failure)
• Compliance with electrical codes to prevent overheating and ignition from electrical
faults or problems such as poor wire insulation or overloading wiring, conductors, or
other fixtures with more electric current than they are rated for.
• Placing and maintaining the correct type of fire extinguishers in easily accessible
places.
• Properly storing and using, hazardous materials that may be needed inside the
building for storage or operational requirements (such as solvents in spray booths).
• Prohibiting flammable materials in certain areas of the facility.
• Periodically inspecting buildings for violations, issuing Orders to Comply and,
potentially, prosecuting or closing buildings that are not in compliance, until the
deficiencies are corrected or condemning it in extreme cases.
• That sprays fireproofing remains undamaged.
• Maintaining a high level of training and awareness of occupants and users of the
building to avoid obvious Maintaining fire alarm systems for detection and warning of
fire.
• Obtaining and maintaining a complete inventory of fire stops.

89
89
• Ensuring mistakes, such as the propping open of fire doors.
• Conduct fire drills at regular intervals throughout the year.

90

Common fire hazards
Improper use and maintenance of gas stoves often create fire hazards.
Some common fire hazards are:
• Electrical systems that are overloaded

resulting in hot wiring or connections, or
failed components
• Combustible storage areas with insufficient
protection
• Combustibles near equipment that
generates heat, flame, or sparks
• Candles
• Smoking (Cigarettes, cigars, pipes, lighters,
etc.)
• Equipment that generates heat and utilizes
combustible materials
• Flammable liquids
• Fireplace chimneys not properly or regularly
cleaned
• Cooking appliances - stoves, ovens
• Heating appliances (wood burning stoves, furnaces, boilers, portable heaters) 
Electrical wiring in poor condition
• Batteries
• Personal ignition sources - matches, lighters
• Electronic and electrical equipment
• Exterior cooking equipment – BBQ
FIRE SAFETY TIPS IN THE WORKPLACE
Here are some basic safety tips that will help ensure you protect your
staff in case the worst ever happens and you experience a fire.
1. Anything that is capable of burning should be
considered a potential risk. Any flammable item
should be safely stowed away in an area that is well
ventilated so as to minimize the risk of ignition. These
may include things like paper, chemicals or waste
materials.
2. A working ventilation fan should be present as this will

help staff escape more safely in the event of a fire due to the smoke and fumes being
cleared quicker.
3. Adequate emergency lighting should be installed and battery powered torches

present for staff so as they can find their way out if the power blackens out the

91
91
building. Never use a naked flame such as a lighter as this could ignite further
fires during escape.
4. Do not leave unwanted rubbish or items such as waste paper or boxes to

accumulate in the workplace as this represents a serious fire hazard as well as
potentially blocking escape routes.
5. Ensure that all staff are aware of the fire escape routes and install fire alarm if
you don't already have one. If the office has one in place already make sure it is
tested regularly each year by a qualified fire alarm engineer and that none of the
detectors are covered, blocked or been painted over.
6. A major cause of office fires is due to a short circuit at the plug or in electrical
machinery such as computers or heaters. Ensure that any unused power socket
is switched off and have your sockets tested annually to make sure they are in
proper working condition. Never ever plug multiple plugs into a power socket as
this increases the risk of an overload and potential short circuit. Electrical fires
can be very dangerous and so you should also provide the correct type of fire
extinguisher for such a hazard. A CO2 extinguisher is especially designed for
this very purpose.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY TIPS
When doing electrical work or using electrical equipment, you should practice safety to
avoid electric shock.
• Shut off power to the circuit you’re working on and verify it’s off (treat all electrical as
having power even after shutting off power).
• Wear rubber gloves.
• Wear rubber shoes with rubber soles.
• Use tools with insulated handles.
• Keep yourself dry.
• Keep the area around you dry.
• Wear safety glasses.
• Never handle electric switch with wet hands.
• Always report frayed electrical cords and ungrounded electrical cords.

WASTE MANAGEMENT
Waste management is the collection, transport, processing or disposal, managing and

monitoring of waste materials. The term usually relates to materials produced by human
activity, and the process is generally undertaken to reduce their effect on health, the
environment or aesthetics. Waste management is a distinct practice from resource recovery
which focuses on delaying the rate of consumption of natural resources. The management of
wastes treats all materials as a single class, whether solid, liquid, gaseous or radioactive
substances, and tried to reduce the harmful environmental impacts of each through different
method.
Proper waste management plays a very important role especially in the kitchen where foods
are being prepared and cooked.
Waste management procedures and techniques
1. Waste avoidance is engaging in activity that

prevents generation of waste. Waste
segragation is the process of dividing garbage
and waste products in an effort to reduce, re –
use and recycle materials.
2. Waste reduction is the minimization of wasteful consumption of goods.

93
93
3. Re-use is the process of recovering
materials intended for some purpose
without changing their physical and
chemical appearance.
4. Recyling is the treatment of waste materials through a process of making them suitable
for benificial use and for other purposes.
5. Composting is the controlled decomposition of organic matter by microorganism mainly

bacteria and fungi into a humus like product.
6. Waste disposal refers to the proper discharge of any solid waste into or any land.
Waste Disposal
Aim: To ensure proper management and disposal of waste.


Determine whether the waste is characterized as hazardous waste or
not.
• Pick up free characterized waste tags, containers, and guidelines from the prescribed
locations:
• Ensure that containers holding hazardous wastes are compatible with wastes, and are
in good condition, do not leak, and are closed when wastes are not being added
or removed.
• Mark containers with the words “Hazardous Waste.”
When the container is full

94
94
• Once the container is full, complete a characterized waste tag, specifying the contents,
and attach to the waste container.
• Limit accumulation of waste to the amount mentioned on the container.
To schedule waste pick up pickup: .
• To schedule a hazardous waste pick up, call the transportation supervisor of the

1. EVACUATION
The Contingency Plan must include an evacuation plan for facility personnel where
there is a possibility that evacuation could be necessary situations which would warrant
partial or complete evacuation are as follows:
• explosions resulting in airborne debris including container fragments and hazardous
waste;
• spills or chemical reactions resulting in toxic fumes;
• fire when it cannot be contained and is spreading to other parts of the facility, or when
fire could generate toxic fumes; and
• all incidents where necessary protective equipment is not available to emergency
response personnel.
The evacuation plan must ensure the safe egress of facility personnel. The
evacuation plan must indicate a recognizable signal to start evacuation, evacuation routes,

97
97
and alternate evacuation routes (incase primary exit routes are blocked by releases of
hazardous waste or fires)
Individuals involved in the evacuation should be trained and instructed in responding to

likely emergency situations. They should be familiar with the location and use of:
1. fire alarm calls points

2. fire exits
3. firefighting equipment like the fire extinguisher
2. DECONTAMINATION
Decontamination is the process of removing or neutralizing harmful materials that

have gathered on personnel or worker and/or equipment during the response to a chemical
incident. Many stories are told of seemingly successful rescue, transport, and treatment of
chemically contaminated individuals by unsuspecting emergency personnel who in the
process contaminate themselves, the equipment, and the facilities they encounter along the
way. Decontamination is of utmost importance because it:
• protects all workers especially hospital personnel by sharply limiting the transfer of
hazardous materials from the contaminated area into clean zones;
• protects the community by preventing transportation of hazardous materials from their
work to other sites in the community by secondary contamination; and
• protects workers by reducing the contamination and resultant permeation of, or
degradation to, their protective clothing and equipment.
Avoiding contact is the easiest method of decontamination -- that is, not to get
the material on the worker or his protective equipment in the first place. However, if
contamination is unavoidable, then proper decontamination or disposal of the worker's outer
gear is recommended. Segregation and proper disposal of the outer gear in a polyethylene
bag or steel drum is recommended. With extremely hazardous materials, it may be
necessary to dispose of equipment as well.
Physical decontamination of protective clothing and equipment can be achieved in some

cases by several different means. These all include the systematic removal of contaminants by
washing, usually with soap and water, and then rinsing. In rare cases, the use of solvents may
be necessary. There is a trend toward dry decontamination, which involves using disposable
clothing (e.g., suits, boots, and gloves) and systematically removing these garments in a
manner that precludes contact with the contaminant. The appropriate procedure will depend on
the contaminant and its physical properties. A thorough work-up of the chemical involved and
its properties or expert consultation is necessary to make these kinds of decisions.
Care must be taken to ensure that decontamination methods, because of their physical
properties, do not introduce fresh hazards into the situation. Additionally, the residues of the
decontamination process must be treated as hazardous wastes.
DECONTAMINATION OF PERSONNEL OR WORKER
Personnel should remove protective clothing in the following sequence.

98
98
• Remove tape securing gloves to suit.
• Remove outer gloves turning them inside out as they are removed.
• Remove suit turning it inside out and avoid shaking.
• Remove plastic shoe cover from one foot and step over "clean line." Remove other shoe
cover and put that foot over the line.
• Remove mask. The last staff member removing his/her mask may want to wash all
masks with soapy water before removing suit and gloves. Place masks in plastic bag
and hand over the clean line, and place in second bag held by another member of the
staff. Send for decontamination.
• Remove inner gloves and discard in drum inside dirty area.
• Close off dirty area until level of contamination is established and the area is properly
cleaned.
• Personnel should then move to a shower area, remove scrub suit and place it in a
plastic bag.
• Shower and redress in normal working attire.
Note: Double bag clothing and label appropriately.
Using personal protective equipment and clothing (PPE)
PPE can protect you from hazards associated with jobs such as handling chemicals or
working in a noisy environment. In food preparation this is the cooking outfit which gives
protection to the worker against different hazards that may be encountered during cooking.
These are the following:
• Hair covering/ hairnet – prevents hair from falling into food product
• Facial mask – barrier to airborne contamination during sneezing, coughing and talking
• Aprons – reduce risk of contamination and help maintain cleanliness.
• Gloves – reduce risks of contamination.
• Pot holder – protects against burns when taking hot items on top of the stove.

Self-Check 3.5
A. Write true if the statement is correct and false if the statement is wrong.
_____1. Decontaminating the PPE can be done by just washing and rinsing with water
only.
_____2. Evacuation is not necessary in cases of spills or chemical reactions resulting
in toxic fumes.
_____3. Avoiding contact is the easiest method of decontamination -- that is, not to get
the material on the worker or his protective equipment in the first place.
_____4. Double bag clothing and label appropriately is necessary to avoid
99
99
contamination.
_____5. The residues of the decontamination process must be treated as
nonhazardous wastes.
B. Give 5 personnel protective equipment and clothing (PPE). Give their uses.

Good luck!

OPERATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH PROCEDURES,

PRACTICES AND REGULATIONS
Occupational health should aim at: the promotion and maintenance of the highest
degree of physical, mental and social well-being of workers in all occupations; the prevention
among workers of departures from health caused by their working conditions; the protection of
workers in their employment from risks resulting from factors adverse to health; the placing and
maintenance of the worker in an occupational environment adapted to his physiological and
psychological capabilities; and, to summarize, the adaptation of work to man and of each man
to his job.
The main focus in occupational health is on three different objectives:
1. maintain and promote workers’ health and working capacity;

2. improve working environment and work; and
3. develop work organizations and working cultures in a direction which supports health
and safety at work and in doing so also promotes positive social climate and smooth
operation and may enhance productivity of the undertakings.
Safety procedures, practices in the workplace contribute to:
1. low rates of accident;

2. good employee morale;
3. employee satisfaction;
4. reduction of insurance and other operating cost; and

102
102
5. reduction of losses of employees due to disabling accidents.
Some health and safety procedures and practices
A. Personal hygiene practices

1. Keep your hands always clean and nails cut short.
2. Wear comfortable clean clothes.
3. Use of PPE when working.
4. Remove jewelries especially when working with food.
5. Use gloves when hands are thoroughly washed.
B. Good housekeeping practice.

1. Keep the area clean. Plan and implement a program of regular cleaning of the
equipment and all other areas.
2. Eliminate the possible breeding of flies. Screen the house and use effective
insecticides whenever necessary.
3. Exterminate rodents. Prevent their increases by not leaving food and dirty dishes on
the table or in the sink. Keep foods likely to be eaten by rats in rodent-proof
containers.
C. Observance of safety precautions. The observance of safety precaution to promote work

efficiency and to avoid accident is important. Accidents are caused either by people
themselves, by unsafe environment, or defective equipment. Accidents are caused by
people are due to haste, distraction or failure to observe safety regulations.
Carelessness causes slips, falls, burns and bumps and the destruction of things in the
workplace. Accidents in the laboratory area are caused by contact with exposed
electrical tools or kitchen equipment and short circuits.
Workplace safety checklist
OSH requirements mean that managing risk in the workplace is more than a priority. It is a
fundamental issue of effective workplace management. Occupational safety and health risks
exist, even though they may not be as apparent as the obviously dangerous machines or
situations that you would normally find in a warehouse or factory or industry.
Check the guide below for some of the OSH responsibilities for the workers to ensure
their personal safety.
1. First Aid. The requirement for a first aid kit or a trained first aid person will
depend on the number of people in the workplace. Where 25 or more people are
located in a workplace on you need to train a first aid person. There is also the
requirement for a first aid kit, register of injuries book and a notice specifying
who to contact in the workplace if first aid is required. A first aid room is only
required where there are 200 employees in an office workplace.
2. Ergonomics. Ergonomics is crucial in offices yet commonly overlooked. A

workstation has correct ergonomics if the alignment of the computer screen,
keyboard, person and chair is in a straight line, with no twisting of the head or

103
103
body. The height of the screen, keyboard and chair will also be important for
good ergonomics. A footrest and document holder may be required, depending
on the situation.
3. Fire control. Sources of ignition and combustible materials should be separated

to avoid potential fires. Fire equipment should be available and unobstructed,
with some employees trained in its use. The complexity of your evacuation
system will depend on the size of the business, number of floors involved and
number of people to be evacuated.
Sources of ignition include heat sources (photocopiers, computers, printers,

portable heaters) and electrical sources including damaged electrical cables and
piggy-backed double adaptors. Cleaning cloths in cleaners' cabinets can also be
sources of heat, depending on the chemicals used and how the materials are
stored.
4. Emergency Evacuation. Have a documented evacuation procedure, which has

been communicated to all employees, and has been practiced as an evacuation
drill at least once each year. The evacuation procedure should differentiate
between bomb threat and other types of emergencies, as the procedure will vary
slightly. Your office area will have a different procedure to other parts of the
business if you are part of a high rise office block while other areas are in an
industrial estate.
Determine an assembly point, and keep a record of people's names to

determine who might be left in the building. This will be useful for the emergency
services if a rescue is required. Consideration should also be given to first aid
provision at the assembly point and the identification of a person who is trained in
first aid should anyone be injured.
Also include in your procedure the method to be used to contact the emergency services,
for example whether you will contact them before or after you evacuate the building.
5. Electrical Hazards. All electrical cables should be periodically inspected for

integrity and replaced if damaged. The practice of 'piggy backing' double
adaptors should be eliminated as this can create a fire risk. If there are
insufficient power points, a power board is a safer option. Alternatively, you could
have an electrician install more power points. Electrical switchboards should be
checked to ensure that neither combustible materials nor flammable liquids are
stored nearby.
6. Chemical Safety. You have legal obligations even if your office keeps very small
quantities of dangerous chemicals. These include addressing hazardous
substances requirements in the OSH Regulation 2001. This requires you keep a
register of hazardous substances, copies of material safety data sheets,
precautions in place to prevent injury to anyone using the chemicals, and
assessing whether control measures (gloves, glasses etc.) are sufficient. All
containers must be labeled with the product name, and any hazards associated
with it, for example flammable, corrosive, poison etc.
104
104
7. Housekeeping. Untidy offices with materials placed in boxes or in piles on the
floor create a hazardous environment - not only a trip hazard, but could indicate
that there is insufficient storage space, insufficient time for storing materials, or
just poor management of the work area.
Many workplaces have difficulty finding a temperature setting that all workers find
comfortable. The recommended range is 22 to 26 person's egress from the workplace, as
well as leading to injury if a person is constantly moving around a cluttered work area.
8. Temperature. Many workplaces have difficulty finding a temperature setting that

all workers find comfortable. The recommended range is 22 to 26 person's
egress from the workplace, as well as leading to injury if a person is constantly
moving around a cluttered work area.
Set the temperature at 22 or 23 degrees and make adjustments from that point.
Check that the air conditioning reaches all areas in the office, and that windows receiving
substantial quantities of sunlight are not causing problems.
9. Manual handling. Whenever staff are required to lift, shift or move heavy items,
for example moving stationery supplies in and out of cabinets and
printers/photocopiers, or moving quantities of mail, computers, printers and other
office furniture, there are manual handling procedures that should be used to
avoid injury.

A. Write the letter of your answer.
_____1. The following are the causes of accident except for one. Which one?
A. people themselves
B. organized work area
C. defective tools and equipment
D. unsafe environment
