About
Safety Observer app template 'NanoObserver' for use in measuring safe and healthy working conditions and behaviour with nanomaterials. A template for the free smartphone/tablet app ‘Safety Observer’ has been developed for use in proactive safety rounds in industrial and academic workplaces that work with or are exposed to manufactured nanomaterials (MN). The template can be adapted to a local context and language, and be used by students, workers, faculty, managers and OSH professionals. Safe and unsafe working conditions and behaviour regarding MN in a workplace are observed and counted, such as: 1) MN signage, marking and labelling 2) MN handling, storage and transport 3) Ventilation and filters 4) Personal protective equipment 5) Technical aids 6) Order and tidiness 7) Hygiene 8) Waste storage, recycling and disposal 9) First aid equipment. Comments and photos can be included in the observations with the app, and a final report, including a ‘safety index’, is automatically generated and made available in the app and sent to one’s email for immediate use in improving and reinforcing OSH initiatives.
