HLTOHS400A - Health & Safety Issues Dealing With Hazards

[Kubra]

I am really confused about exactly what to write and what to say for this answer. So please if anyone has a clue on what this is, it would be lovely to get some help, Thank you! It starts off with a case study,

Sandra is a supervisor at a long day care centre in suburban ADelaide. One afternoon, a room assitant comes to her to inform her about an OHS issue that she has identified- there is a leaking pipe in the kitchen where the cook prepares the childrens meals. water is leaking into a cupboard where dry foods are stored and also onto the floor next to the cupboard.

NOW THE QUESTION IS:

research the health and safety issues that may be associated with this hazard, and then in reference to this chapter, detail the process of steps Sandra should take in relation to this issue. How would you deal with this issue?

Thank you

Kubz

Hey Kubz,

So first the first part of this question you just need to research "leaking pipe in kitchen" and the factors that need to be taken into consideration... I'm sure if you google it you should be able to find some info on the effect a leaking pipe has in the kitchen. Using the information from your research, depends on what Sandra should do next... does she need to get it fixed straight away or can she fix it temporarily and address the issue later...
