Pointing and Calling

“Pointing and Calling” is a kind of occupational safety action that can improve one’s state of mind and concentration through the coordination of one’s sense organs, including vision, brain and consciousness, body motion, calling out and hearing. "Pointing and Calling" was developed in Japan, which is a method in exciting the concentration of the workers, in order to strengthen their awareness and accuracy in work and hence reduce negligence, error or misunderstanding related accidents.

Publications

The Labour Department issued revised Guidance Notes on the Selection, Use and Maintenance of Safety Helmets (“GN”) in June 2018. The concerned publications were produced well before the date and do not reflect the latest requirements for wearing suitable safety helmets with chin straps fastened. The GN prevails regarding the specifications and use of the safety helmets.
