Ringkasan Draf Peraturan

Draf Peraturan Keselamatan dan Kesihatan Pekerjaan (Jentera Berbahaya) 20XX

Selari dengan perkembangan semasa teknologi masa kini pelbagai penemuan baru
telah dihasilkan dalam usaha untuk terus memperbaiki aspek kehidupan manusia.
Dalam konteks pembangunan industri pelbagai jenis bahan dan jentera pengeluaran
baru telah dihasilkan untuk meningkatkan produktiviti sesebuah organisasi.

Mengambil kira perkembangan ini dan masalah semasa yang berkaitan dengan
penggunaan jentera-jentera di sesuatu tempat kerja atau pun di tempat-tempat awam,
Jabatan Keselamatan dan Kesihatan Pekerjaan telah mengambil inisiatif untuk
membangunkan satu draf peraturan bagi tujuan ini. Draf iniyang dinamakan sebagai
Peraturan Keselamatan dan Kesihatan Pekerjaan (Jentera Berbahaya )20XX dan
bertujuan untuk menangani isu-isu keselamatan berkaitan dengan penggunaan suatu
jenis jentera. Peraturan yang dibangunkan ini merangkumi jentera berbahaya
sepertimana berikut :-

¾ Dandang Setim
¾ Pengandung Tekanan Tak Berapi
¾ Pengandung Tekanan Berapi
¾ Lif Penumpang
¾ Eskalator, Walklator dan Dumbwaiter
¾ Lain-lain mesin angkat

Peraturan ini di bangunkan adalah gabungan semua peraturan sedia-ada seperti

Peraturan Dandang Stim dan Pengandung Tekanan Tak Berapi, Kilang dan Jentera
1970 dan Peraturan (Lif Penumpang Elektrik dan Barang) Kilang dan Jentera 1970
serta menyediakan kehendak baru bagi jentera mesin angkat. Peraturan ini adalah
dicadangkan untuk diwartakan di bawah peruntukan Akta Keselamatan dan Kesihatan
Pekerjaan 1994, dan Peraturan ini turut merangkumi kehendak-kehendak teknikalnya
yang relevan dengan perkembangan teknologi semasa.

Peraturan ini terbahagi kepada 12 bahagian yang mana seterusnya di perincikan

didalam 46 kehendak-kehendak. Kehendak-kehendak am yang berkaitan dengan
kesemua jentera-jentera berbahaya tersebut telah dikenalpasti dan memasukkan
kehendak-kehendak khusus untuk sesuatu jenis jentera berbahaya sepertimana yang
dinyatakan di atas.

Secara amnya fokus kawalan Peraturan ini merangkumi perkara-perkara berkaitan

dengan rekabentuk, pembuatan, pengubahsuaian, pembaikan, ujian dan pemeriksaan,
pengendalian dan penyelenggaraan jentera-jentera berbahaya termasuk keperluan ciri-
ciri keselamatan yang perlu diadakan.

Kehendak tersebut pula adalah samada dalam bentuk kehendak am bagi jentera
berbahaya atau kehendak khusus untuk jenis suatu jentera tersebut. Kesemua
kehendak tersebut telah dikenalpasti dan dimasukan sebagai peruntukan dalam
Peraturan ini.

Kewajipan sebagai pemunya, penduduk atau ‘duty holder’ terhadap mana-mana jentera
berbahaya juga telah dikenalpasti. Perekabentuk, Pembuat dan Pembekal juga
mempunyai kewajipan mereka yang tertentu dalam usaha memastikan jentera-jentera
bahaya ini direkabentuk, dibina dan dibekalkan kepada pengguna untuk digunakan
dengan selamat dan tanpa risiko kesihatan.

Kesimpulannya adalah diharapkan kehendak-kehendak peraturan ini dapat membantu

pihak pemunya, penduduk atau ’duty holder’ mana-mana jentera berbahaya di dalam
mengurus dan memastikan keselamatan dan kesihatan semasa pengendalian mana-
mana jentera berbahaya di tempat kerja mereka masing-masing ataupun
penggunaannya di tempat-tempat awam.
