Lesson 1Struck-by hazards: falling tools/materials, moving equipment, crane lifts, suspended loadsThis part looks at struck-by dangers from tools, materials, and machines. It covers falling things, moving vehicles, crane jobs, hanging loads, and controls like barriers, watchers, and no-go areas in South Sudan construction.
Identify overhead work and drop zonesTool tethering and material securing methodsVehicle and equipment travel path mappingCrane swing radius and load path controlsSpotter roles and communication signalsLesson 2Fall hazards: unprotected edges, scaffold gaps, openings, floor openings and stair voidsThis part details how to spot and group fall dangers on active sites. It deals with edges, holes, scaffolds, floor and stair gaps, and checks exposure time, worker jobs, and needed fall protection setups in local contexts.
Identify unprotected edges and leading edgesLocate floor, roof, and shaft openingsScaffold gaps, access points, and platformsAssess fall distances and exposure durationSelect guardrails, covers, and PFAS optionsLesson 3Electrical hazards: live conductors, temporary power, incomplete installationsThis part deals with electrical dangers from temp and permanent systems. It covers live wires, temp power, unfinished setups, lockout tagging, and checking cords, panels, and power spread in South Sudan sites.
Identify exposed and energized componentsTemporary power layout and load managementInspection of cords, GFCIs, and panelsLockout tagout coordination with contractorsControls near water, metal, and wet tradesLesson 4PPE and human factors: missing eye protection/gloves, fatigue, language and supervision gapsThis part looks at PPE use and human factors that affect danger exposure. It covers missing or wrong PPE, tiredness, stress, language blocks, supervision quality, and ways to build safety culture in diverse South Sudan teams.
Match PPE to task, hazard, and environmentIdentify non use and improper PPE practicesRecognize fatigue, stress, and distraction signsAddress language and literacy limitationsSupervisor presence and role modelingLesson 5Housekeeping and access hazards: congested routes, blocked emergency exits, trip/slip surfacesThis part focuses on cleaning and access dangers that cause many hurts. It covers material crowding, blocked exits, bad lighting, trip and slip floors, and how to enforce clear, safe paths on South Sudan construction sites.
Define minimum clear widths for access routesIdentify blocked exits and egress obstructionsManage debris, offcuts, and loose materialsControl mud, ice, and slippery walking surfacesLighting and visibility in corridors and stairsLesson 6Systematic hazard listing from project context: falls, struck-by, tools, materials, fire, electrical, housekeepingThis part explains how to make a structured danger list from project papers and site walks. It covers usual construction dangers and how to group them by job, place, trade, and stage for ongoing risk check in local projects.
Review drawings, specs, and construction scheduleIdentify task, trade, and location based hazardsClassify falls, struck by, caught between, other typesUse checklists and prompts without losing judgmentPrioritize hazards by severity and likelihoodLesson 7Environmental and site-specific hazards: underground parking risks, confined spaces, ventilation and hazardous atmospheresThis part focuses on dangers from the site body and surroundings. It covers underground parking risks, tight spaces, air flow limits, bad air, and how to watch changing weather conditions in South Sudan environments.
Underground parking layout and traffic patternsConfined space criteria and entry decision makingVentilation needs for fumes, dust, and exhaustDetection of oxygen deficiency and toxic gasesWeather, temperature, and visibility impactsLesson 8Interaction and coordination hazards: multi-trade sequencing, inadequate exclusions, permit conflictsThis part looks at dangers when many trades, permits, and work areas overlap. It covers order fights, poor no-go zones, permit clashes, and ways to work safe same-time jobs on multi-contractor South Sudan sites.
Map overlapping trades, tasks, and time windowsIdentify conflicting permits and work authorizationsDesign and enforce exclusion and buffer zonesCoordinate crane, hoist, and delivery interfacesUse daily coordination and pre task meetingsLesson 9Material handling and storage hazards: unstable stacks, improper stacking, inadequate signageThis part deals with dangers from moving, lifting, and storing materials. It covers shaky stacks, wrong racking, hand lifting risks, machine overlaps, and signs to control entry and loading in South Sudan warehouses.
Assess manual handling and overexertion risksStacking height, stability, and dunnage useRacking, shelving, and pallet storage checksSegregate materials from walkways and edgesSignage for capacity, no stacking, and accessLesson 10Fire and hot work hazards: welding near combustibles, hot work permits, fire watch needsThis part covers fire and hot work dangers on construction sites. It explains fire starts, burnable loads, hot work permits, fire watch jobs, and working with building systems and local fire rules in South Sudan.
Survey combustible materials and fuel sourcesIdentify welding, cutting, and grinding locationsHot work permit workflow and documentationFire watch roles, duration, and equipmentCoordination with alarms and suppression
