#Job StepSequence of working activitiesHazardThe potential to cause harm (Health, Injury, Property damage, environment etc)CAUSE(Possible causes that will potentially release a hazard)Consequences(The harm which could possibly occur).Potential RiskH / M / L(With no controls in place)Existing Barrier / ControlDescribe all existing barriers / controls for each hazardRecommended Controls

Residual RiskH / M / L(with controls in place

1. M1. Working with electricity 1. Electrocution

1. Broken cables, worn out cables, improper plugs used

1. Fatality1. Personal Injury - Burns

H1. Inspection of equipment and accessories prior to work1. Check all cables prior to start of work to ensure proper condition1. Check for no breaks in insulation1. Do not apply insulation to damaged cables.1. Replace damaged cables1. Reeled extensions should be fully extended to its length1. Ensure appropriate plugs are usedL

2. Use of chemicals Biological / Physical hazards Mist or vapour produced from the chemicals used Eye and skin chemical contact

Fast evaporating vapours spaces Irritation to respiratory track Irritation / allergies to skin. Damage to eyes from direct spray from aerosol or mists falling from above. Evaporating vapours can reach hazardous levels quickly in unventilated spacesM Proper application of chemicals to avoid inhalation Proper application of chemicals to avoid contact with eyes and skin. Confined space training. Do not spray on to hot surfaces

Eye protection, Skin protection, PPE Aware of wind / air flow and direction MSDS available Proper illumination, posture Toolbox talksL

3.

Fire / Environmental damage

Working near sources of ignition Contamination

Personal injury Improper disposal of chemicals

M Do not spray on naked flame Dispose used chemicals as per site procedure

1. Do not expose to temperature over 50 deg C. 1. No smoking during use of chemicals1. Store chemicals away from sources of ignition and heat and treat as pressurized gas container.1. Disposal in proper collection points only
