Utkir Umarov, MWH Senior HSE Project Engineer, recently authored an article in Health and Safety Middle East Magazine, in which he discussed planning for work site challenges.
“Work environments ranging from large petrochemical complexes to small retail stores present a vast variety of hazards, resulting in a nearly a million work-related injuries and illnesses every day across the world,” he said. “The International Labour Organization published this devastating statistic in 2009, and unfortunately, the situation is not getting any better. Exposure to hazardous chemicals is a frequent contributor to the above statistics.”
This article discusses chemical protective work wear used in workplaces during both routine chemical management and non-routine activities such as spill response, waste handling or rescue operation in case of emergencies.
Read his entire article in the March 2015 edition of Health and Safety Middle East Magazine.
