Prevent Industrial Accidents: The Importance of Clean Floors in Engineering Industries

Safety Alert: Avoid Accidents from Unclean Floors in Engineering Units!

In a recent incident at a machining workshop in Pune, a machine operator slipped on an oily floor near a CNC machine and suffered a fractured wrist. The accident led to production downtime, legal penalties, and employee distress.

1. Slip and Fall Accidents

Spilled oil, coolants, or even condensation can make industrial floors dangerously slippery. Such conditions often result in falls that cause head injuries, fractures, or muscle strains.

2. Tripping Hazards

Debris, scattered tools, and loose or uneven flooring create tripping hazards, especially in high-traffic areas. These accidents can lead to serious worker injuries and downtime.

3. Dust and Metal Shavings

In environments with grinding, machining, or cutting, metal shavings and fine dust accumulate quickly. If not cleaned:

• They can clog or damage machinery.
• Cause respiratory issues when inhaled by workers.
• Lower the efficiency of operations.

4. Spread of Contamination

Contaminants on the floor can spread bacteria, oil, and chemical residues, increasing health risks and potentially affecting the quality of manufactured products.

5. Damage to Flooring

Continuous exposure to grease, chemicals, or heavy traffic can erode industrial flooring, making it unsafe and more expensive to repair.

Root Cause?

• Coolant & oil mist accumulation from CNC machines
• Lack of regular industrial floor cleaning
• No proper oil mist extraction system in place
