We are nothing after our death. Let us donate our body organs for the poor.

Be not afraid of anything. You will do marvelous work The moment you fear, you are nobody - Swamy Vivekananda

If you think safety is expensive, try an accident... - O.P.Kharbanda

Preventable accidents, if they are not prevented due to our negligence, it is nothing short of a murder - Dr. Sarvepalli Radha Krishna, 2nd President of India

Zero accidents through zero unsafe behaviors. Do not be complacent that there are no accidents. There may be near miss accidents (NMAs). With luck/chance, somebody escaped knowingly or unknown to the person. But, we can't be safe, if we depend upon the luck.

Safety culture is how the organization behaves when no one is watching.

We make No compromise with respect to Morality, Ethics, or Safety. If a design or work practice is perceived to be unsafe, we do not proceed until the issue is resolved. - Mission statement by S&B Engineers & Consultants Ltd. http://www.sbec.com/safety/

Explosion in the compressor of glass factory

In an explosion in a compressor in factory, 5 persons died. 

For preventing excessive pressure, atleast a safety relief valve will be used, set to release at a pressure above maximum allowable working pressure. In pressure vessels coming under SMPV rules, generally, two relief valves are used. These valves need to be tested every twelve months by competent person.

Also, the material of construction for valves shall be suitable for the service. 


Regarding air compressors, we find tyre repair many shops having along the road. Poor maintenance of such equipment are a hazard to passersby.
