Knife Handling Safety Discuss the types of knives and uses in your work setting.

Disclaimer This training material presents very important information. Your organization must do an evaluation of all exposures, applicable codes and regulations, and establish proper controls, training, and protective measures to effectively control exposures and assure compliance. This program is neither a determination that the conditions and practices of your organization are safe nor a warranty that reliance upon this program will prevent accidents and losses or satisfy local, state or federal regulations. All procedures and training, whether required by law or not, should be implemented and reviewed by safety and risk management professionals, and legal counsel to ensure that all local, state and federal requirements are satisfied.

Course Outline – Knife Handling Safety Why Take Knife Handling Safety Training? Perform a Hazard Assessment Use Cut Gloves Use the Proper Knife Safe Cutting Knife Storage Summary

Why Take Knife Handling Safety Training? Knife handling safety is important! Knifes are used in many work settings and at home. Their hazards are well known, but safe handling approaches are not. Hazards exist from cuts when using them, as well as when handling them.

Perform a Hazard Assessment Find out what hazards are present: Perform a Hazard Assessment to determine Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and other safety controls needed, based on the hazards of tasks to be performed.   Train staff and require them to use needed protective measures such as safeguarding systems and PPE. For example, use steel mesh or Kevlar gloves when cutting. Discuss controls and PPE available for tasks staff perform. Assure that Safety Observations are performed to assure that proper controls are in place, and all training followed. The Job Hazard Analysis application in the Risk Management Center should be used to create JHAs and perform and documents your Hazard Assessments. The Safety Observation application should then be used to observe and evaluate the staffs’ adherence to the needed critical safety behaviors.

Use Cut Gloves Cut Gloves: Cut gloves provide protection from laceration type cuts. These are available in Kevlar and steel mesh. They do not provide complete protection or protection from piercing type exposure. Sanitation is an important issue with these gloves and proper food safety handling and approval is required. Do not use gloves around moving machine parts that can catch and create a pull-in hazard. Evaluate the type of glove needed for work tasks being performed. Assure their use.

Use the Proper Knife There are many types and sizes of knives. Using the proper knife depends on the work to be performed. Evaluate tasks being performed and assure the right gear is available.

Note - cut glove missing Safe Cutting Cutting: Keep hand and fingers out of path of travel. Cut away from the body keeping thumb out of the cutting line. Train and observe staff to assure the proper techniques are employed. Assure cut gloves are used where specified. Bad Position Good Position Note - cut glove missing

Knife Storage Safe Storage: When using knives, keep them at least 6 inches back from the counter edge and on their side (never blade up). When not in use, store them in designated storage rack that prevents access. Keep knives secured, and only allow use for trained and authorized staff. Observe staff during busy periods and coach staff as needed. Perform and documents results of Safety Observations.

Note - cut glove missing Summary Always be safe: Allow only experienced, trained staff to sharpen knives and other sharp items. This is done correctly by keeping the thumb beneath the knuckle guard rim on the handle of the sharpener, rather than on top of the rim where it may get cut. Keep knives sharp and in good condition. Dull knives tend to slip and may cause injuries. Report when knives need sharpening and when they are newly sharpened.  Bad Position Designate staff trained and authorized to perform sharpening. Observe their behaviors to assure safe measures are used. Make sure cut gloves are used for this task in addition to proper hand placement. Good Position Note - cut glove missing
