OBJECTIVES To understand hazards & its classification in the HIRAC Identify hazards and risk factors that have the potential to cause harm (hazard workplace RISK ASSESSMENT identification). To assess or measure the is a term used to Analyze and evaluate the risk associated impact to the occupation of with that hazard (risk analysis, and risk the organization describe the overall evaluation) To Develop a preventive process or method Determine appropriate ways to eliminate the hazard or control the risk when the approach to establish safe job procedures where you: hazard cannot be eliminated (risk control). 43 44 WHEN TO CREATE HIRAC? (5) Five Steps to Risk Assessment? Every activity / task should have a corresponding HIRAC, 1. Identify the hazards prioritizing the following considerations: 2. Decide who might be harmed and how 1. High Frequency of Accidents 3. Evaluate the risks and decide on precautions 2. Increase occurrence of Near-Misses 4. Record your findings and implement them. 3. History of Serious Accidents / Fatalities 5. Review your risk assessment and update if necessary 4. Potential for Serious Harm 5. New Jobs or New Equipment 6. Changes in Procedures or Standards 45 46 STEP 1: Hazard Identification? Workplace Hazards First you need to work out how people could be HAZARD harmed. When you work in a place every day it is Any source easy to overlook some hazards, so here are some tips of potential to help you identify the ones that matter. Process of damage, finding and identifying: Hazardous agents (situations, products etc.) That could harm, or contribute adverse To provoking an occupational accident or/and disease health effect The groups of workers potentially exposed to these on people. hazards. 47 48 [email protected] 8 Think Safety BOSH SO2 Online D1 STEP 2: Decide who might be harmed and how?

Severity Criteria Severity Criteria 51 52 STEP 4: Record your findings and implement them HIERARCHY OF CONTROLS Having spotted the hazards, you then must decide what to do about them. The law requires you to do everything ‘reasonably practicable’ to protect people from harm. 53 54 [email protected] 9 Think Safety BOSH SO2 Online D1 STEP 5: Review your risk assessment and update if necessary CLEAR POINTS Have there been any changes?

The organization must determine which technique will work best for each situation. 57 58 OBJECTIVES ACCIDENT Is an unexpected, To define unforeseen, unplanned and Unsafe or unwanted occurrence or unhealthy event that causes damage or loss of materials or acts and properties, injury or death. conditions. 59 60 [email protected] 10 Think Safety BOSH SO2 Online D1 HAZARD & RISK INCIDENT HAZARD RISK A dangerous A source or situation A combination of with a potential to the likelihood of an condition or event cause harm in terms occurrence of a that occurred that of injury, ill health, damage to property, hazardous event with and the severity could lead to an damage to the of injury, harm, ill environment or a health or damage to accident. combination of these. property 61 62 UNSAFE ACT UNSAFE CONDITION oUnaware o Unnoticed oUnable o Uncorrected oUnmotivated Examples of Unsafe Acts Operating equipment without authority Examples of Unsafe Conditions Removing safety devices Inadequate guards or protection Using Defective equipment Defective tools or equipment Improper or Nonuse of PPE Congested or blocked exits Horse playing Inadequate warning systems Working while under the influence of Slippery floors alcohol or drugs Hazardous environmental condition 63 64 Mr. Heinrich's Survey Heinrich’s Domino Model of Accident Causation 88% Unsafe or Unhealthy Acts 10% Unsafe or Unhealthy Conditions Therefore: REMEMBER: 98% of Accidents are Preventable ACCIDENTS 2% Non-Preventable are caused...

There are three main types of in-running nips. Parts can rotate in opposite directions while their axes are parallel to each other. These parts may be in contact (producing a nip point) or near. In the latter case the stock fed between the rolls produces the nip points. This danger is common on machines with intermeshing gears, rolling mills, and cylinders. Nip points are also created between rotating and tangentially moving parts. Some examples would be the point of contact between a power transmission belt and its pulley, a chain and a sprocket, and a rack and pinion. Nip points can occur between rotating and fixed parts which create a shearing, crushing, or abrading action. Examples are spoked handwheels or flywheels, screw conveyors, or the periphery of an abrasive wheel and an incorrectly adjusted work rest. 107 108 [email protected] 18 Think Safety BOSH SO2 Online D1 An individual making unwanted contact with a moving part of a Loss of trained and skilled employee machine.
