30. Case: Unsafe Working Environment Usijali Inc. is a factory that produces popular commodity products in Kenya. The owners of the establishment enjoy a near monopoly status in the market. At one stage Usijali Inc. had machinery that had seen better days. Most of the machinery and rotating equipment was uncovered and thus exposed workers to extreme danger of serious accident risks. Incidentally some of the employees operating the machinery equipment wore long hair. Some others wore flowing loose garments. None of the employees used Personal Protection Equipment (PPE). One night, an employee on night shift came to work but was under alcohol influence. While at work the employee dosed off and his loosely handing clothes were caught up in the rotating machinery of the factory. The accident would have been fatal had it not been for quick reaction quick reaction of his co-workers who pulled him off the machinery before he could be crashed. He survived with serious injuries on his hands and face. Respond to the tasks on the next slide: 27th June '11 28 Session 8
