For EACH action:
Specific legal arguments: 100 to 150 words
Likelihood AND severity: 75 to 150 words
How effective the action is likely to be in controlling the risk: 100 to 150 words

Moral, general legal and financial arguments for ALL actions
Moral, general legal and financial
arguments
Moral arguments:
It is the moral responsibility of Aster Company to provide safe system of work, safe working
equipment’s & safe personal protective equipment. If the employer is not obeying his
responsibilities, it will be a cause of accident at workplace. After accident, the workers are injured
& shifting to hospital. The worker faces lot of pain or maybe disability also. The worker family also
suffer when worker loss his earning source due to his disability. They may face too many difficulties
because worker support to his family with his salary.
So, it is not acceptable for society that worker going to workplace and he face injuries or disabilities
due to unsafe work procedures. That is why the Aster Construction Company must ensure the
safety of its workers.
Legal Arguments:
As Pakistan is a member of ILO, so according to ILO and Pakistan national laws for safe system
should be, follow up. According to safety laws, the Aster Company must be providing safe system
of work, work related safety trainings & safe machinery for work procedures. If accident is
happening due to company is failure to provide facilities of safe system of work-related issue, the
enforcement agencies will act against the company. The enforcement agencies issue improving,
prohibition notices & heavy fine also. If the accidents will be happening with continually, the
enforcement agencies may be banned the company. Company duty to provide health and safety
and make changes according to the C155 and R164 of ILO

12. Learner number: 00736117 Learner name: Bilal Waheed Page 12 of 21
Financial Arguments:
It is Aster Company responsibility to provide safe system of work, if the accidents are happening in
workplace, company also face financial losses with direct & indirect cost. For example, due to
accident one worker in injured in company. mention financial losses are occurred:
• Provide First aid
• Hospital shifting (surgery or medical treatments)
• During sick leave provide over time to other worker for work.
• If worker is disable and not return to work, hiring of new worker is also financially expansible.
• Investigation of accident also payable.
• Civil claims come from injured worker.
• Court proceedings
• Fines from enforcement agencies
• If accidents will happen continue to, the Insurance company increase the premium.
• During accident maybe some machine also damaged or create fire, damaged of property is also
financial loss.

Before construction is commenced and during the progress thereof adequate steps shall be taken
to ascertain the presence of and to guard against danger to workers from any live electrical cable
or apparatus, which is under, over or on the site.
3. The laying and maintenance of electrical cables and apparatus on construction sites shall be
governed by the technical rules and standards applied at the national level.
The ILO Code Of Practice on Electricity Safety the link below give brief details on Electrical safety
and importance: https://www.ilo.org/global/topics/labour-administration-
inspection/resourceslibrary/publications/guide-for-labour-inspectors/electrical-safety/lang--
en/index.htm
Consideration of likelihood AND severity
 types of injury or ill health
 number of workers at risk
 how often the activity is carried
out
 how widespread the risk is
The site workers are continually using this pathway in almost 08 duty hours & the wire insulation is
damaged and is laid in that pathway, site workers may unintentionally touch this wires any time
causing accident any time. Very high Likelihood
The 1 civil technician, 1 electrician, 2 plumbers, 2 supervisors, 3 site engineers, labours will be
effected with this damaged insulation of wires because they all work continually & maybe they
unintentionally touch this wires
The likelihood is very high for this hazard.
I set 4 categories for severity of incidents.
1. Minimum: no physical injury & no property loss.
2. Medium: Required first aid after accident.
3. Major: in this situation worker face serious injury who should be shifted to hospital/sick leave
required and also property loss.
4. Catastrophic: in this situation worker death / un recoverable property loss. Fatal injuries

14. Learner number: 00736117 Learner name: Bilal Waheed Page 14 of 21
This damaged insulation is an electrical hazard because the conductors could be exposed. Contact
with an exposed wire could cause a shock and leading to arcing or a fire.
Contact with an exposed wire could cause an electric shock and leading to electrocute the worker.
Also, can burn the body completely from internal, can damage body tissue, can damage lungs of
workers, muscles pain, burns, bruise and the electrical shock also leading to possibility of death.
Damaged to other electric sockets, electric machinery, whole electric power system sudden stop
can cause damage to other on-going project and machinery. Overall this risk can cause fatal injuries
so this risk is very highly widespread and its covering a particular area where main workers works.
So, its Severity belongs from Catastrophic category due to high likelihood and Fatal injuries
How effective the action is likely to be in
controlling the risk. This should include:
 the intended impact of the action;
 justification for the timescale that
you indicated in your risk
assessment; and
 whether you think the action will
fully control the risk
When we replace the damaged insulation with double insulation wire, if worker unintentionally
touch these wires, they will not face electrical shock the accident will not happened. So the safety
of the workers will be improved
As per timescale 5 days is enough for this action because the after approval from administration
department the wire will purchase from market and after delivery of wire, it will be replacing the
electrical supply wire for marble polishing machine.
The replacement of damaged wire is minimizing the electrical risk, for minimizing more, remove
the electrical supply wire from stairs and ass it another though safe area other than walkways.

(b) combat quickly and efficiently any outbreak of fire;
(c) bring about a quick and safe evacuation of persons.
2. Sufficient and suitable storage shall be provided for flammable liquids, solids and gases.
R164 - Occupational Safety and Health Recommendation, 1981 (No. 164)
II. Technical Fields of Action
3. As appropriate for different branches of economic activity and different types of work and taking
into account the principle of giving priority to eliminating hazards at their source, measures should
be taken in pursuance of the policy referred to in Article 4 of the Convention, in particular in the
following fields:
(m) prevention of fires and explosions and measures to be taken in case of fire or explosion;
Consideration of likelihood AND severity
 types of injury or ill health
 number of workers at risk
 how often the activity is carried
out
 how widespread the risk is
The Grinder Technician is cutting a steel pipes with grinder near the generator fuel storage, the
cutting process of steel pips produces the sparks the activity continues for long almost 08 hours
and through day for many days and the petrol is exposed any spark can ignite the fuel and a very
high likelihood of the accident.
1 grinder technician, 2 helpers & others worker who work this area will have affected by fire
I set 4 categories for severity of incidents.
1. Minimum: no physical injury & no property loss.
2. Medium: Required first aid after accident.
3. Major: in this situation worker face serious injury who should be shifted to hospital/sick leave
required and also property loss.

16. Learner number: 00736117 Learner name: Bilal Waheed Page 16 of 21
4. Catastrophic: in this situation worker death / un recoverable property loss. Fatal injuries
If the fire will start it will be a cause of too much human & property losses happening many
material at construction site will be affected with fire explosion.
As a result, serious burns are complex injuries. Burn injuries can affect muscles, bones, nerves, and
blood vessels. The respiratory system can be damaged, with possible airway obstruction,
respiratory failure, full body burning is the possibility of death. Chances of many deaths, fatal
injuries so this risk hazard is very highly widespread and its covering almost whole building if fire
explosion occurs it will damage the whole building & and this will cause also many death.
So, its severity belongs from Catastrophic category.
How effective the action is likely to be in
controlling the risk. This should include:
 the intended impact of the action;
 justification for the timescale that
you indicated in your risk
assessment; and
 whether you think the action will
fully control the risk
Installation of protective sheets between fuel storage & grinding works minimize the
fire hazard. The protective sheet will have blocked the flames and sparks in specific
area, it will not be creating the ignition sources for fire.
As per timescale 1 week is enough for this action because the sheets are available in
work site material store. For installation of protective sheets, the civil workers are
available at work site. After approving the workers will be set to start work according to
the plan will complete it in the suggested time.
This action will minimize the fire hazard but for minimizing of fire hazard further the fuel
storage should be shifted to another specific area. And supervision control will be given.
Justification for action 3
Action (Taken from column 4 of risk
assessment)

Construction dust is not just a nuisance – it can seriously damage your health. Regularly breathing
in these dusts over a long time can cause life-changing lung diseases.
This information sheet is for employers. It tells you what you need to know adequately control the
risks from construction dust.
Consideration of likelihood AND severity
 types of injury or ill health
 number of workers at risk
 how often the activity is carried
out
 how widespread the risk is
The marble cutter operator cutting marble with electric saw marble cutter and due to this work
activity dust
is creating and spreading widely. 1 Marble cutting operator, 2 supervisors near, 1 operator
assistant and
workers who working near the electric saw marble cutter, they may harmed because they inhale
the dust &

also his skin affected with marble dust.
As result the marble dust is a cause of eyes infections and several respiratory & skin diseases, such
a
disorders, cancer, allergic rhinitis, chronic bronchitis, asthma, impairment of lung function,
infection in
respiratory system & cough. Long-time exposure or inhaling toxic dust can cause lungs cancer.
There is High
Likelihood
I set 4 categories for severity of incidents.
1. Minimum: no physical injury & no property loss.
2. Medium: Required first aid after accident.
3. Major: in this situation worker face serious injury who should be shifted to hospital/sick leave
required
and also property loss.
4. Catastrophic: in this situation worker death / un recoverable property loss. Fatal injuries
As result the marble dust is a cause of eyes infections and several respiratory & skin diseases, such
a
disorders, cancer, allergic rhinitis, chronic bronchitis, asthma, impairment of lung function,
infection in
respiratory system & cancer which may take long time to notice and this may cause the death of
the
operators and other workers who working there and inhaling dust almost 08 hours a day so this is
Highly

widespread risk because This can cause Lung Damage or Cancer which is dangerous disease and
the workers
working there don’t have enough money to recover because it takes a lot of money for the cure of
lung
cancer. The risk is high widespread and its covering the area where 1 Marble cutting operator, 2
supervisors
near, 1 operator assistant and workers who working near the electric saw marble cutter, they may
harmed
because they inhale the dust & also his skin affected with marble dust and long term inhalation
cause the
cancer and other deadly lung diseases.
So its Severity belongs from Major because these injuries require long term hospital treatments.
How effective the action is likely to be in
controlling the risk. This should include:
 the intended impact of the action;
 justification for the timescale that
you indicated in your risk
assessment; and
 whether you think the action will
fully control the risk
Providing of 3M respiratory mask & safety goggles will be minimizing the dust hazard for workers.
For
another control provide supervision to make sure that worker should be use PPE during marble
cutting
activity, it will be also minimizing the dust hazard.
As per timescale 10 days is enough for this action because the after approval from administration
department. The purchaser will providing the 3M respirator mask & safety goggles to marble
cutting
workers at workplace within given time
Yes this action will control the risk but with good supervision and water sprinkling there then the
hazard will
be fully controlled

Part 4: Review, communicate and check
Suggested word counts for each section:
 Planned review date or period and reasoning for this: 50 - 100 words
 How the risk assessment findings will be communicated and who needs to know the information: 100 - 150 words
 Follow up on the risk assessment: 100 - 150 words.
Planned review date/period with
reasoning
Date of risk assessment for review is 11 November 2023 because it is the Aster company policy that
review risk assessment will be annually so I will also review this risk assessment before one-year if
under mention some points will happen.
 Entry of vulnerable employees at work site.
 If some new equipment’s & machinery introduce at work site.
 If some incidents/accidents will be happing repeating.
 Changing of work methods.
 If accident happens
How the risk assessment findings will be
communicated AND who you need to tell
After completing all my finding and I will have prepared the risk assessment documents. Then
I send a short summary of my finding to Aspire company Director by email and to section engineers
& supervisors. I will invite the site manager, Health and safety Engineer and worker representative
for meeting to explain the risk assessment finding in detail. I will arrange a seminar for site
workers & provide hard copy of my report to all concerning employees, provide and paste all my
finding in company website & also provide on notice board for workers on site. I save the minutes
of meeting reports and provide to other concerning departments & employees. I will have
0prepared the safety sign by visible posters as per my risk control measures for site worker &
explain my finding & risk assessments controls in toolbox meetings.
How you will follow up on the risk
assessment to check that the actions
have been carried out
Before starting work in area on actions I will set reminder (every 10 days) on notes in office and in
calendar in personal phone for the day of starting work. I will visit the area to inspect the
preparation with responsible persons. I will visit in future to the site surprisingly to judge the
progress of work and will make picture and videos for record. If any resource they feel is lacking. I
will meet the concerning head of department & and will resolve the resources lack issue. If they
required More finance for this control, I will be concerning to finance department head or finance
manager to provide the finance. If still the work is going prolong to complete the action and the
action is delaying very much, like 5 months, I will refer the action to the General Manager in a
meeting.
