Assessment

13

1. Risk and Hazard Identification

Identification of:

• Hazards

• Risks

• Controls

2. Risk Analysis

• Understand and document the hazards, risks and controls (Bow Tie, ICAM, FMEA , HAZOP, Event Tree etc.)

• “Measure” the size of risk: Qualitative, Quantitative, Semi-quantitative

3. Risk Evaluation

• Evaluate against Risk Appetite / As Low as Reasonably Practicable

Hazards

A source with a potential to cause injury or ill health

Risks

Effect of uncertainty

The possibility that harm (death, injury or illness) might occur when exposed to a hazard)

Hazards

15

Hazards Risks Consequences

Manual tasksTasks involving sustained or awkward postures, high or sudden force, repetitive movements or vibration

Musculoskeletal disorders such as damage to joints, ligaments and muscles

Gravity Falling objects, falls, slips and trips of peopleFractures, bruises, lacerations, dislocations, concussion, permanent injuries or death

PsychosocialExcessive time pressure, bullying, violence and work-related fatigue

Psychological or physical injury or illness

Electricity Exposure to live electrical wiresShock, burns, damage to organs and nerves leading to permanent injuries or death

Machinery and equipmentBeing hit by moving vehicles, or being caught in moving parts of machinery

Fractures, bruises, lacerations, dislocations, permanent injuries or death

Hazardous chemicalsAcids, hydrocarbons, heavy metals, asbestos and silica

Respiratory illnesses, cancers or dermatitis

Extreme temperatures Heat and coldHeat can cause burns and heat stroke or injuries due to fatigue. Cold can cause hypothermia or frost bite

Noise Exposure to loud noise Permanent hearing damage

RadiationUltra violet, welding arc flashes, micro waves and lasers

Burns, cancer or blindness

Biological Micro-organismsHepatitis, legionnaires’ disease, Q fever, HIV/AIDS or allergies

• Work organisation, Works areas design, operating procedures

• Social factors, Leadership and culture

• Routine and non routine activities

• Infrastructure, Equipment, Materials, Substances, Physical Conditions

• Product and service design, R&D, Testing, Production, Assembly, Constriction, Service Delivery, Maintenance and Disposal

• Human Factors

• How work is performed

• Past incidents – Internal and External

• People (employees and others with access, those in vicinity that could be affected, workers at location not under control of organisation)

• Change in knowledge and information on hazards

• Actual and proposed changes

Identification Considerations

Identification Techniques

1. Observations.

2. Consultations with others

3. Inspections.

4. Audits.

5. Root Cause Analysis.

6. Skill & Knowledge Assessment.

7. Past incidents. Internal and External

8. Industry Comparisons.

What techniques do you use to carry out risk and hazard assessments?

1. Workshops

2. Checklists

3. Inspections

4. Consultations and Interviews

5. Other (please note in question box)

1. Understand the Hazards and Risks

2. Measure the size of risk

3. Frequency of Analysis

On an ongoing basis – quarterly, semi-annually, annually etc and ad hoc when e.g.

any new plant is introduced and when modifications are carried out

plant is used for another purpose

new information about hazards becomes available.

mandatory assessments

4. What is being assessed?

by activity that could cause harm, injury or illness

by group—machinery, transport, material or substance

by section or department—machine shop, laboratory

routine, non-routine, maintenance, breakdown, emergency, etc.

2. Risk analysis

Type Used When Advantage DisadvantageQualitative uses word forms or descriptive

scales to describe the magnitude of potential consequences and the likelihood that those consequences will occur

allows individual opinion to be considered

Opinion offered could be an interpretation based on individual bias

Semi-Quantitative

qualitative scales such as those referred to above are given numerical values

provides a guide to the severity of residual risk by allocating quantity descriptors to different levels of risk

can be erroneously deemed to be an absolute measurement of risk when it is actually a qualitative measurement

Quantitative significant use of numerical and statistical data, and is applied where in-depth research and calculations are required

Reliable predictor in exceptionally reliable or consistent conditions

May not factor external variations or human element

Measurement / Assessment Types

Examples

1.Qualitative judgement. e.g. High, Medium, Low2.Likelihood and Consequence – “5X5 Matrix”3.Risk metrics (Key Risk and Control Indicators)4.Historical – use of past incidents5.Quantitative – Monte Carlos, Loss distributions etc.

Change Management

33

• Risk in Change: The risk that our WHS risk change materially once the change has been delivered into the business

• Risk in Change Management. Assessment and management of the delivered WHS risks before the change is implemented

• Risk in Change Process• Identify changes that could cause a material change

to WHS risks• Conduct a Post Dated risk Assessment.• Manage risks to within appetite / So far as

reasonably practicable • Ensure risks are managed before “go live”

= No surprises

Issues, Actions and Opportunities

Purpose

• Identify hazards and risks that are not within risk appetite / reduced so far as reasonably practicable

• Identify the issue(s) as to why the risk is excessive• Risky process

• Control Weakness

• Control Gap

• Where we are not happy with the way risk is currently being managed.

• Apply hierarchy of controls

• Develop action plans to address the issues

• Implement action plans

35

Opportunities – ISO 45001

Opportunities to enhance OH&S performance: • Adapt work• Eliminate hazards and reduce risks• Other opportunities to improve OH&S system

Issues and Actions

1. Issue

Where we are not happy with the residual risk level. This will arise where there is a control gap, control weakness or the residual risk is too high and cannot be commercially reduced further.

2. Action

Actions are plans to resolve an issue, such as establishing a new control to address a control gap or modifying an existing control to improve the “Design Effectiveness” or “Operating Effectiveness” of an existing control, or risk accepting.

Treatment MethodImpact on Risk

Control Hierarchy

1. Accept the risk –Automatically (within appetite)

2. Transform the inherent risk (process re-engineer)

Substitute

3. Improve controls IsolateEngineeringAdministrativePPE

4. Transfer / share the impact (e.g. insure)

5. Accept the risk – Formally (risk acceptance policy)

6. Avoid the risk Eliminate

7. Reduce controls, commence new activities

Risk Responses and Treatment Methods

Eliminate the Hazard

Substitute with less hazardous processes, operations, materials or

equipment

Engineering controls and reorganization of work

Administrativecontrols, including

training

PPE

When approaching a risk assessment do you feel a cultural bias towards?

1. The minimisation of cost

2. An equal balance between cost and risk mitigation

3. The mitigation of risk including innovation

Polling Question
