Geringuillo Do you know this machine? Crane, a machine used to lift and lower materials from or going a high building.  But what if this machine becomes a threat to people? x  Is this classified as a man-made hazard or a man- made disaster? x Learning objectives: 1. Understand the meaning of disaster; 2. Differentiate hazards from disaster; and 3. Describe the effects of disaster on one’s life. Hazard Is a dangerous phenomenon, substance or dangerous chemicals, x human activity or condition that may cause loss of life, injury or other health impacts, property damage, loss of livelihoods and services, social and economic disruption, and environmental damage. Hazard In short, this is something that has a potential to cause harm to people, x property, or the environment.  In short, this is something that has a potential to cause harm to people, Hazard property, or the environment. x Risk The chance or probability of that hazard causing harm or damage to people’s property or the environment. Example of hazard  x Classification of Hazard Man-made and Natural  Physical Hazard Chemical Hazard Ergonomic Psychosocial Hazard Hazard Classification of Man-made Hazard Physical Hazard Any hazard that comes from environmental factors Excessive exposure can affect the nerves, blood vessels, muscles and joints of the hand, wrist and arm causing Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS). Physical Hazard Constant loud noise Continual exposure to noise can cause stress, anxiety, depression, high blood pressure, heart disease, and many other health problems. Physical Hazard Electrical: frayed cord If a cord becomes frayed, the live wire can be exposed. This is dangerous and can leave you vulnerable electric fires.  Chemical Hazard Any hazard that comes from a solid, liquid or gas element, compound, or mixture that could cause health problems or pollution. Any hazard that comes from a solid, liquid or gas element, compound, or mixture that could cause health problems or pollution. Chemical Hazard Cleaning product Cleaning products that contain corrosive chemicals can cause severe burns if splashed on the skin or in the eyes. products that contain bleach and ammonia can cause severe lung damage or death.. Any hazard that comes from a solid, liquid or gas element, compound, or mixture that could cause health problems or pollution. Chemical Hazard Pesticides Examples of acute health effects include stinging eyes, rashes, blisters, blindness, nausea, dizziness, diarrhea and death. Examples of known chronic effects are cancers, birth defects, reproductive harm, immunotoxicity, neurological and developmental toxicity, and disruption of the endocrine system. Any hazard that comes from a solid, liquid or gas element, compound, or mixture that could cause health problems or pollution. Chemical Hazard Welding fumes Both acute and chronic health risks are associated with welding fume. Occupational lung disease, including lung cancer, is the most common health risk, but welding can also affect the eyes and skin. There is also a significant risk from asphyxiation when welding in confined spaces.  Ergonomic Hazard Hazards that can create physical and psychological stresses because of forceful or repetitive work, improper work techniques, or poorly designed tools and workspaces. Hazards that can create physical and psychological stresses because of forceful or repetitive work, improper work techniques, or poorly designed tools and workspaces. Ergonomic Hazard Repetitive motion Fatigue or tiredness in muscles and /or joints is your body's way of telling you to change your pattern of working. Doing the same motion over and over or using certain types of positions or grips can cause pain and inflammation. Hazards that can create physical and psychological stresses because of forceful or repetitive work, improper work techniques, or poorly designed tools and workspaces. Ergonomic Hazard Poor posture Poor posture can throw your spine out of alignment and cause muscle pain in the back, neck, and shoulders. Hazards that can create physical and psychological stresses because of forceful or repetitive work, improper work techniques, or poorly designed tools and workspaces. Ergonomic Hazard Poor lighting From the workers' perspective, poor lighting at work can lead to eye-strain, fatigue, headaches, stress and accidents. On the other hand, too much light can also cause safety and health problems such as “glare” headaches and stress.  Psychosocial Hazard Aspects of the work environment and the way that work is organized that are associated with psychiatric, psychological, and or physical. Aspects of the work environment and the way that work is organized that are associated with psychiatric, psychological, and or physical. Psychosocial Hazard Stress Stress can play a part in problems such as headaches, high blood pressure, heart problems, diabetes, skin conditions, asthma, arthritis, depression, and anxiety. Aspects of the work environment and the way that work is organized that are associated with psychiatric, psychological, and or physical. Psychosocial Hazard Bullying Any form of bullying Aspects of the work environment and the way that work is organized that are associated with psychiatric, psychological, and or physical. Psychosocial Hazard Sexual Harassment Sexual harassment is a known workplace hazard that can cause psychological and physical harm.  Classification of Natural Classification of Natural Hazard Hazard Earthquake in Turkey Geological Hazard Geologic hazards are generally caused by the movement of the plates in the Earth's crust or the arising magma from underneath. Earthquakes occur when there is a sudden slip on a fault. Volcanic eruptions, on the other hand, happen when magma rises to the Earth's surface. Another examples: landslide, tsunami, Geological Hazard Biological Hazard A living or once-living organism that have a potential to poses a threat to human health. Biological Hazard Blood or body fluid, fungi, bacteria Biological Hazard Extreme events associated with the occurrence, movement and distribution of water Hydrological Hazard Avalanche, flood and tsunami Hydrological Hazard This happens when there is an extreme temperature Climatological Hazard Drought and wildfire Climatological Hazard Meteorological hazards are caused by changes to the Earth's atmosphere, especially the weather. Meteorological Hazard Cyclone, storm, wave surges Meteorological Hazard Why cyclone, typhoon, and hurricane named differently despite that they are the same? It is because of the name differs based on where in the world the storm occurs. Question Disaster Is a serious disruption of the functioning of a x community or a society involving widespread human, material, economic, or environmental loses and impacts which exceeds the ability of the affected community or society to cope using its own resources. Disaster In short, it is associated with a large- x scale destructive events such as typhoon, earthquake, and volcanic eruptions.  To identify whether it is a hazard or disaster this is the easiest way to explain in example: x Typhoon is a hydrological hazard. But when a typhoon destroys properties and affects people and the country then it become a natural disaster.  To identify whether it is a hazard or disaster this is the easiest way to explain in example: x Earthquake occur under the sea can be identified as geological hazard. But when it create tsunami and it affects the community then it become a disaster. Expired foods are biological hazard. x When all of students experience vomiting, stomachache and worst death due to food poisoning then it is a disaster.  x COVID-19 is a biological hazard When many people are infected and affects people’s life and economy then it is a disaster. Let’s try! x Identify whether is it hazard or disaster. 1. Wet floor 2. Closed room. 3. Thousands of people trapped in a sinking ship. Let’s try! Identify whether is it hazard or disaster. x 4. Unleashed territorial dog. 5. The city fell in a sinkhole. 6. A twin-engine light plane crashed into the middle of a big shopping mall jammed with thousands of shoppers. Let’s try! Identify whether is it hazard or disaster. x 7. Traffic along Red-V road. 8. Horror movie for a kid. 9. Cold weather. 10. Famine Let’s try! Think of the probable risk/s on the following scenario. x 1. The electricity is still on during flood. 2. Bleach on the floor while a kid is nearby. 3. Phishing Let’s try! Think of the probable risk/s on the following scenario. x 4. Not drinking water for a day. 5. Experience bullying. 6. Ash cloud from a volcano. 7. Impending signs of a volcanic eruption in Mount Mayon. Let’s try! Think of the probable risk/s on the x following scenario. 8. Cut by a rusty metal. 9. Too much vitamin C intake. 10. House without foundation.
