- OHSA 1994, FMA, BOWEC Reg, Safety,Health & Welfare Reg,etc

Based on approved Standard & good practice

- OSH MS such as OHSAS 18001 AND MS 1722 etc

COMPONENT OF ASSESSMENT & WEIGHTAGE

Divided into 3 categories:-

DOCUMENT CHECK - 40% WORKPLACE INSPECTION - 40% EMPLOYEE INTERVIEW - 20%

SHASSIC REQUIREMENT

Work Progress has to be within 25% to 75%

WHY ? Construction at peak Many activities Workers at full Strength Potential accidents

DOCUMENT CHECK

Checking on documents and records - to determine the compliance of establishment of OSH program and activities

There are 63 questions/checklists Weightage is 40% of the total marks of 100

WORKPLACE INSPECTION

This assessment shall provide visual comparison of evidence on the OSH program that being implementation, enforced and practiced at site.

There are 62 questions/checklists 5 (five) high risk areas shall be assessed

within the site ( areas to be decided by Assessor)

It carries 40% of overall weightage

HOW TO IDENTIFY 5 AREAS?

Talk to Project Manager or SHO at Site to identity the areas

There must be construction activities going on

Working at height shall be given preferences Working in confine area Working at congested area Many people working within small area

EMPLOYEES INTERVIEW

Employees shall be randomly selected for interview purpose

Divided into 3 categories of Employees, namely, management personal ( 1), safety & health personals (3) and finally workers(10) from various trades

The set of questions are different for each categories

There are 48 questions all together(12, 6, 30) It carries weightage of 20%

METHOD TO CALCULATE SCORE FOR ASSESSMENT

Document Check Total compliance in the checklist / ( 63

minus Number of Not applicable items) X 40% = A ( score for document check )

METHOD TO CALCULATE SCORE FOR ASSESSMENT

Workplace Inspection Total compliance in the checklist /

( 62X5=310 minus Number of Not applicable items) X 40% = B ( score for Workplace Inspection )

METHOD TO CALCULATE SCORE FOR ASSESSMENT

Employees Interview Total compliance in the checklist / ( 330

minus Number of Not applicable items) X 20% = C ( score for Employees Interview )

TOTAL CHECKLISTS

Document Check 63 Workplace Inspection310 ( 62 X 5 ) Employee Interviews 330 ( 12(x1) + 6(x3)+

30 (x10)

TOTAL = 63 + 310 + 330 703 / site

RATING

The total score based on the document check, workplace inspection and employees interview ( A + B + C ) shall be used for rating purpose

The RATING has 1 to 5 stars based on total marks scored

85 – 100 = 5 stars, 70 – 84 = 4 stars, 55 – 69 = 3 stars , 40 – 54 = 2 stars and 1 star for 39 and less marks

SCORE STARS

( RATING )

85 - 100

70 - 84

55 - 69

SCORE STARS

( RATING )

40 - 54

39 and less

JUSTIFICATION FOR RANKING STARS

5 STARS - Potential and significant workplace high risk/hazards are managed and documented

4 STARS - Potential and significant workplace high risk/hazards are managed and documented but there are few low risks work activities are neglected

JUSTIFICATION FOR RANKING STARS ( continue )

3 STARS - Potential and significant workplace high risk/hazards are managed and documented but there are few medium risks work activities are neglected

2 STARS - Potential and significant workplace high risk/hazards are managed and but not documented.

JUSTIFICATION FOR RANKING STARS ( continue )

1 STAR – workplace potential and significant risk/hazards poorly managed and not documented properly
