IASP- PPT_ Risk Assessment Awareness and JSA (1).ppt

This training aim at highlighting the importance of occupational risk identification and classification in order create free hazard workplace

1. RISK ASSESSMENT AWARENESS
1

2. Risk
2
What is a Risk?
Combination of the likelihood and
severity of a specified hazardous
event occurring

3. Hazard
3
What is a Hazard?
A HAZARD is a source, situation or act with a
potential to cause harm, including ill health or
injury, disease, damage to equipment and
property, the environment, the reputation,
production losses or increased liabilities

4. Hazard
4
suspended loads
falling objects
working at height
working over water
electricity
biological
ionizing radiation
moving machinery
chemicals
slippery surfaces
confined spaces
etc.
Examples

5. Risk matrix
5
Personnel Environment
Downtime Reputation

6. Risk matrix
LOW
RISK
TOLERABLE RISK: the activities can start and no further
immediate controls are required
MEDIUM
RISK
THE RISK IS TOLERABLE IF ALARP. It is necessary to:
•Identify and implement additional risk reduction measures, where
practicable;
•Ensure that the risk is subject to periodic assessment so that it
remains constantly within the ALARP range.
HIGH
RISK
INTOLERABLE RISK: the activities cannot be carried out until
mitigation measures able to bring the risk to an acceptable level
(yellow or green area) have been implemented

7. Risk Control Hierarchy
7
ELIMINATE - The subject process shall not be implemented. The
risk must be reduced through removal of the hazard at source; e.g.
through re-design / re-engineering.
REDUCE - Reduce the risk in the process through substitution
with an alternative; e.g. different methods, materials or equipment.
ISOLATE - Prevent personnel interaction with the hazard; e.g.
through removal of personnel (through automation), enclosure of
the process/hazard, machinery guarding, emergency stops and
reduction of personnel exposure time.
CONTROL - Manage hazard exposure through the use of
systems and procedures; e.g. permits to work, special rules/work
instructions.
PROTECT - Use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). All the
above MUST be fully considered ahead of PPE use. Where necessary
PPE should be used in support of the above measures.

8. Risk Assessment process
8
1.Identify the hazards
2.Decide who might be harmed and how
3.Evaluate the risks and decide on precautions
4.Record your findings and implement them
5.Review your assessment and update if necessary

9. JOB SAFETY ANALYSIS
9

10. JSA
10
Job Safety Analysis (JSA) is a simple mean of looking
at the work task and considering what is the safest
way to complete it.
It is a way of becoming aware of the hazards
involved in doing the job and taking action to
prevent an injury.

11. JSA essentials
11
Different names for same tool (e.g. Safe Job
Analysis, Job Hazards analysis, etc.)
The technique can extend beyond work into
everyday life, resulting in a safer lifestyle
The JSA is used as a hazard recognition tool for
jobs and tasks (especially routine ones!)

12. JSA technique
12
Four basic stages in conducting a JSA are:
1.selecting the job to be analyzed;
2.breaking the job down into a sequence of steps;
3.identifying potential hazards;
4.determining preventive measures to overcome these
hazards.
JSA is not a paper exercise.
The implementation of the
control measures identified is
fundamental
