State why and when health and
safety control equipment,
identified by the principles of
protection, should be used
relating to types, purpose and
limitations of each type, the work
situation, occupational use and
the general work environment, in
relation to:
– collective protective
measures
– personal protective
equipment (PPE)
– respiratory protective
equipment (RPE)
– local exhaust ventilation
(LEV).
In order to ensure the safety and health of workers it is important
that various protective measures must be used so that highest
security and safety of workers is ensured. Some of the effective
measures that can be taken in a construction organisation are:
Collective protective measures: Using warning signs, training
the employees in accordance with usage of tools and equipments,
taking seminars to inform new employees regarding safety
measures, informing about the method to use, use of handrails etc.
The purpose of these measures are to reduce the risks which can
occur at the sites so that safety of workers can be maximised. The
limitations of using this measure can be workers not paying
attention to warning signs and instructions.
PPE: These are the tools which help in protecting an individual
from a hazards like steel toe boots to protect feet from getting
injured, ear defenders to protect ear drums, hard hat to protect
head, goggles to protect eyes, gloves to protect hands from injury
etc.
RPE: Various equipments can be used to prevent respiratory
system from harmful gases and dust like dust masks, self
contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) along with training the
employees so that they can use the equipments efficiently.
LEV: It is an engineering control system which runs on power
and helps in reducing dust, mist, fume, gases etc. which can be
hazardous to the respiratory system.
All the above mentioned measures can help in protecting workers
from any injuries or accident which can occur t the site of work so
that better health conditions can be maintained in organisation.

– collective protective
While moving, handling and storing resources it is important that
various measures are taken like risk assessments so that the risks
associated with resources can be determined and appropriate tools
can be used like PPE, RPE and LEV so that the workers can be
protected from any injuries. PPE consist of steel toe boots, hard
hats, gloves etc. so that injuries can be prevented. RPE can also be
used so that dust during storing resources can be prevented from

Describe how and when the
different types of fire
extinguishers, relevant to the
given occupation, are used in
accordance with legislation and
official guidance.
While storing the resources in workplace fire can occur due to
various reasons and different types of fire extinguishers can be
used depending on the cause of fire:
ABC powder fire extinguisher: These extinguishers are the most
commonly used type and sprays fine chemical powder and can be
used for fire caused by paper, wood, flammable solids, paint,
petrol etc.
Thus this fire extinguisher can be used during the storage of the
resources in Wood Occupation. The fire extinguishers must be
used as per the legislations and official guidelines so that only the
people who are trained in using them can make use of them in
case of occurrence of fire so that the safety of self and others can
be maintained. Thus can also help in following effective
procedures which are related with the use of effective tools which
are required to be used in a given situation.

While moving, handling and storing resources it is important that
various measures are taken like risk assessments so that the risks
associated with resources can be determined and appropriate tools
can be used like PPE, RPE and LEV so that the workers can be
protected from any injuries. PPE consist of steel toe boots, hard
hats, gloves etc. so that injuries can be prevented. RPE can also be
used so that dust during storing resources can be prevented from
entering respiratory system. LEV can be used so that dust, mist,
gases at the storage sites of resources can be reduced. Thus these

Describe how to calculate
quantity, length, area and
wastage associated with the
method/procedure to install first
fixing components
While installing first fixing components calculations regarding
quantity, length, area and wastage can be done by following
effective procedures or methods so that effective records can be
maintained which can be taken for future reference. Also this can
help in limiting the wastage of resources and also the
constructions can be done as per the requirement of the customers
so that highly effective structures can be made available to them.
It is also important that measurements tools must be used by the
workers so that the construction can be done in proper dimensions

and following the requirements of the client so that effective
construction can take place. Also training must be given to the
workers regarding the use of tools so that effective calculation can
be done and construction can be made more effective. The
materials which is used in installing first fixing components like
partition, frames, ceilings, roofs, floor installations etc. must be
calculated as per the designs and area which needs to be covered
so that the materials which are ordered are in sufficient quantity so
that these instalments can be done efficiently. Correct calculations
are important so that budgets do not get exceeded and sufficient
quantity of material can be procured from suppliers.

Explain why the disposal of
waste should be carried out
safely in accordance with
environmental responsibilities,
organisational procedures,
manufacturers’ information,
statutory regulations, and official
guidance.
It is important that the waste related with installing first
components are disposed off safely so that environment pollution
can be controlled and the safety of flora and fauna can be ensured
which is also important as a part of the CSR policies of Wood
Occupation which can help in increasing the ethical actions of the
organisation. Also the manufacturer's information, organisational
procedures, statutory regulations and official guidance must be
followed while disposing off the waste so that safety of
surroundings can be ensured and interest of all the stakeholder can
be maximised. The disposal of waste can also help in ensuring
good housekeeping so that all the workers at site can be given a
healthy and safe environment. Also it help in minimising the risk
which can occur due to the wastage catching fire. Also managing
waste can help in reducing the chances of trips, slips and falls so
