Hazard Identification and Risk Control
E N D
Application of Hazard identification, Risk Assessment and Controls Module 4
Module 4 Learning Objective: Participants will be able to perform risks/hazards assessment, evaluation and recommend measures of control
Module 4 Learning Outline • Keys steps in recognizing and identifying hazards • Safety hazard • Health hazard • Risk Assessment and Prioritization • Application of controls • Workshop on Accomplishing Risk Assessment Form/Matrix
Remember? • Risk • The likelihood that the harm will be realised. • When assessing risks the potential severity of the consequences is also considered. • Hazard • Something with the potential to cause harm.
Risk Assessment It is a process to IDENTIFY HAZARDS & determine possible CONTROL MEASURES to minimize RISK & provide a SAFE working CONDITION.
Task Requiring Risk Assessment • Routine and non-routine activities; • Activities of all persons having access to the workplace; • Human behavior, capabilities and other human factors;
Task Requiring Risk Assessment • Hazards originating outside the workplace capable of adversely affecting the environment, health and safety of persons under the control of the organization within the workplace; • Hazards created in the vicinity of the workplace by work-related activities under the control of the organization;
Task Requiring Risk Assessment • Modifications to the Integrated Management System, including temporary changes, and their impacts on operations, processes and activities; • Infrastructure, equipment and materials at the workplace, whether provided by the organization or others;
Task Requiring Risk Assessment • Changes or proposed changes in the organization or others; • Any applicable legal obligations relating to risk assessment and implementation of necessary control; and
Task Requiring Risk Assessment • The design of work areas, processes, installations, machinery/equipment, operating procedure and work organization, including their adaptation to human capabilities;
DANGER HAZARD SPOT& STOP THE HAZARD • Identify the Hazard :- Snake • Potential consequences:- Attack • Likelihood :- Any moment • Assess the risk :- To be controlled • Monitor/Review & Record:- Contain
Risk Assessment Process START Define tasks/activities and look for the aspect/hazards Identify the impact/risk Verify adequacy of existing controls Evaluate the Impacts/Risks & provide additional controls if needed Record the findings Review and Update Records END
Should be appropriate to the nature of the work and such that it remains valid for the time of the activity. • If scope of work changes - then new Risk Assessment must be carried out!
Where are the hazards? • All workplace hazards exist in five general areas. • Materials – liquids, solids and gasses • Equipment - machinery, vehicles, tools, and devices • Environment - noise, temperature extremes, atmospheres, biological, and workstation design
Where are the hazards? • People - anyone in the workplace • System - flawed policies, programs, plans, processes, procedures, and practices
Elimination • The best control measure to control a hazard is to eliminate it. If you don’t have the hazard, you won’t get injured but it tends to be the most difficult to implement in an existing process.
Elimination The best method of dealing with a hazard is to eliminate it. Once the hazard has been eliminated the potential for harm has gone Are there any problems with this situation? Cylinders are stored in an unsafe position; not secured properly; pallet damaged/ burned Yes
The Hierarchy of Controls • Substitution • The next best control measure is to substitute something else in its place that would be non-hazardous or less hazardous to workers. ie: a non-toxic (or less toxic) chemical be substituted for a hazardous one
Substitution This involves substituting a dangerous process or substance with one that is not as dangerous. This may not be as satisfactory as elimination since there may still be a risk (even if it is reduced).
The Hierarchy of Controls Engineering controls eliminate the “human factor” in preventing injuries. • Engineering Controls • Isolate people from the hazard; • It is used to remove a hazard or place a barrier between the worker and the hazard.
Engineering Controls • Guarding • Enclosures • Process Modification • Equipment Modification • Ventilation • Lighting
The Hierarchy of Controls • Administrative controls • Change the way people work. This works only so long as employee behavior conforms to standards. Examples: • Warning alarms • Labeling systems • Reducing the time workers are exposed to hazard • Training
The Hierarchy of Controls • Personal Protective Equipment • The last resort and least effective means of controlling exposure to hazards because of the high potential for damage to render PPE ineffective. • The success of this control measure depends not only on the quality of PPE, but also the quality of human behavior.
Personal Protective Equipment • Provision of PPE should only be considered when all other control methods are impractical. • Eye (example: safety glasses) • Face (example: face shield) • Head (example: hard hat) • Ear (example: ear plugs) • Hand (example: rubber gloves) • Foot (example: safety shoes) • Body (example: rubber apron) • Respiratory (example: respirator)
