D1 : Define Team • Facilitator • Tan Seng Hin (FA Manager) • Leader • Oh Siew Khim (FA Assistant Engineer) • Member • Teresa Jee Meng Goak (FA Technician) • Lee Sui Lan (FA Technician) • CK Wong (Vendor)
D2 : Describe The Problem • Annual review of FA lab activities • Through JSA & PSO • Identify new potential hazards • New potential hazards identified on one activity • “Clearance of condensed corrosive oil on RIE machine” • Identified during PSO • Hazard identification & risk assessment (HIRA) found the risk to be high
Oil mist from RIE machine pump Up to acid exhaust Corrosive oil mist (ph2 level) condensed from exhaust every few weeks Transparent pipe to check accumulation of oil valve Oil accumulated Extension pipe Valve to discharge oil Installed a valve and extension pipe for clearing accumulated oil D2 : Describe The Problem Connected to acid exhaust • Background Reactive Ion Etch (RIE) machine
Job Safety Analysis (JSA) D2 : Describe The Problem • Procedure to clear accumulated corrosive oil • Place chemical bag over pipe • Open valve to discharge oil • Wait for oil to fully discharge and stop dripping • Close valve & clean pipe • Background
3 potential hazards identified D2 : Describe The Problem Peer Safety Observation (PSO)
Prolong bending during clearance resulting in backache (ergonomic) Oil drip on floor if chemical bag torn by sharp object resulting in slip & fall D2 : Describe The Problem
Improper closure or faulty valve resulting in corrosive oil substance dripping on floor (environmental pollution) Power cable Corrosive oil substance contact with live wires resulting in electrocution Slip & fall hazard resulting in physical injury D2 : Describe The Problem
Need immediate attention !! D2 : Describe The Problem Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment
D2 : Describe The Problem • Team Goals • Reduce the risk ofelectrocutionfromcriticalto low. • Reduce the risk ofslip & fallfrom mediumtolow. • Reduce the risk ofbackachefromhightolow. • Timeline : 12 June 2008

Method Material Environment Machine/ tool Man D4 : Verify Root Causes Method Material Wrong material Potential hazards on condensed oil mist clearance activity Procedure not updated Environment Wrong PPE No safety communication PPE, pipe, bag Incorrect safe work procedure Dim lighting Unreliable Inferior quality No safe work procedure Space constraint PPE, pipe, bag clearance bag Confuse safe work procedure Procedure too manual No PPE Did not follow safe work procedure No warning signs Do not know safe work procedure Reliability Low working height Did not use PPE Parts wear-out Did not attend safety training Capability (old injury, physical built) Machine/ tool Man
Design engineering control solution Review material used in new solution D4 : Verify Root Causes • Depend much on administrative control • Personnel constant monitoring of procedure • Constantly holding on to chemical bag during clearance • Ergonomic (Low working height) • Constant exposure to corrosive oil • Constantly ensuring oil do not drip or leak onto floor during clearance • Need to ensure valve is properly closed • Need to monitor functionality of valve • Unreliable material used • Chemical bag possibly torn by sharp object

Movable pipe fit into facility pipe and to waste bottle Waste bottle Flooring D5: Choose and Verify Corrective Action Idea 2 Idea 1 Fit into facility pipe. Movable funnel Waste bottle Combining idea 1 and 2 : Movable pipe that fit into facility pipe and ability to slide in and out of waste bottle. • Corrosive oil flow direct into waste bottle • Personnel has no direct exposure to oil • Any leak is contained within the piping into the bottle.
At the same time, cover over facility pipe • Adapt idea 4 safety cabinet design : • Concealed on all sides for double protection • Contain any unforeseen spill within cabinet. Movable pipe insert through hole with shoulder resting on surface of cabinet to prevent sliding down Flooring D5: Choose and Verify Corrective Action Idea 4 Prevent direct contact with corrosive oil Safety cabinet design
