Work Instruction
This Topic Assessment Guide (TAG) contains the reference material and guidance required to
complete the assessment of this topic.
Topic Assessment Guide

A Topic Assessment Guide (TAG) will be completed by Topic Specialists to record their
assessment of a safety case and communicate those conclusions to the Case Management Team.
The TAG is a record of the topic specialist’s assessment against the SCR2015 regulatory
requirements. It will be used for new cases and submissions containing material changes.
The TAG template is one of a series covering all assessment disciplines, which together, once
completed, will form a complete record of the safety case assessment and create evidence of how
the decision to accept the case, or not, was reached. The templates identify the specific regulatory
requirements of SCR2015, and other relevant statutory provisions, for the topic and indicate what
the competent authority expects to find within a safety case to demonstrate that those requirements
are met. The TAG template complements the published guidance that supports the regulations and
other available topic sector guidance. The TAG templates are created to ensure a consistent and
transparency approach by inspectors assessing the cases and are made available to duty holders
who may find them a useful aid when drafting submissions.
Assessment Issue
An Assessment Issue (AI) is a deficiency in the demonstration made within a safety case. Where
an AI has the potential to risk acceptance of the Case, the Case Manager must be informed. The
issue must be clearly outlined on an Assessment Issue Note that is communicated to the duty
holder.
Assessment Issues must be sent via the portal to the DH and the AI must give the DH a clear
understanding of how to address the deficiency.
Clarification
A clarification is an explanation provided by a duty holder on request during assessment to enable
the assessing Inspectors to be confident of their interpretation of the information in a safety case.
Clarifications are a routine part of assessment work and should be raised with a duty holder
promptly and recorded on the portal using the communications tab. A meeting between the duty
holder and relevant topic specialists may also be appropriate in some circumstances. Clarification
is not a first stage before raising an assessment issue. Any aspect that could credibly lead to an
assessment issue should be raised as such in the first instance.
Difference of Professional Judgement

If a difference of professional judgement (DPJ) occurs during the assessment this should be
recorded on a Difference of Professional Judgement Note which must be uploaded onto the Portal
(via Communications) in PDF format. The process outlined in the relevant Framework Diagram
must then be followed to reach a resolution.

Guidance
Guidance that relates to the information a DH needs to present in a safety case is available from
several sources, the guidance identified below signposts key information that is relevant to this topic
or area of assessment:
 Assessment Principles for Offshore Safety Cases (APOSC)

 L154 - SCR2015: Guidance on Regulations
 Environmental Health Guidelines, Oil and Gas UK.
Other published guidance that is pertinent to safety case content in relation to Industrial Hygiene is
detailed below within the assessment scopes.
Topic specific expectations
The Industrial Hygiene discipline has provided the following guidance that sets out the Competent
Authority’s expectations in relation to aspects of health management in offshore operations. There is
further guidance in Appendix 2.
Scope
The Offshore Installations (Safety Case) Regulations [SCR15] requires a safety case to demonstrate
the duty holder’s management systems are adequate to ensure compliance with the relevant statutory
provisions, and there are satisfactory arrangements for the management of contractors and sub-
contractors. The required demonstration of the adequacy of the management system is not restricted to
the management of major accident hazards and it is also necessary for the safety case to demonstrate
that the occupational health arrangements ensure compliance with the relevant statutory provisions. A
safety case which does not include industrial health, hygiene & welfare elements in the descriptions of
the management system is therefore unlikely to demonstrate that the management system is adequate.
Assessment of Adequacy of Demonstration

To facilitate assessment of a safety case a set of elements relating to industrial hygiene have been
defined and are set out in the following assessment sheets. This guidance covers all types of safety
cases, installations, combinations of installations and operating regimes and is therefore of necessity
pitched at a fairly high level. The issues covered in this document are not exhaustive. Therefore, it
should not be regarded as restricting assessors in any way if, in their judgement, issues not explicitly
covered by this guidance need to be pursued to establish the acceptability of the case for occupational
hygiene.
Reference is made throughout this Section to HSE/Industry codes, standards and guidance. This is to
help duty holders understand what the regulations require to achieve compliance and assessors should
refer to these as the benchmark for good practice.
Where HSE/Industry codes, standards or guidance are employed in arguments supporting the case for
occupational health, hygiene and welfare their relevance to the particular circumstances of the
installation in question should be established in the safety case together with an indication as to how
compliance of the duty holder’s arrangements with this material is achieved.
Depth of Assessment
Assessment of a duty holder’s industrial health & hygiene arrangements is targeted primarily at
determining whether the performance of the arrangements made to ensure effective control of health
4|Page
risks is credible and effective. Verifying whether the health arrangements are physically capable of
delivering the claimed performance is a matter for post acceptance inspection.
While it is a matter of balance as to how much material is required in a safety case rather than verified
through inspection, any discussion included in a safety case in support of a demonstration of
regulatory compliance should contain sufficient detail to lend conviction to the arguments. It is
important that the case demonstrates an understanding of the principles and practice required to
ensure adequate management of hygiene & health risks.
The assessment of safety cases is basically a sampling process. Therefore, dependent upon several
factors including assessment history, not all the elements identified in this Section may necessarily be
assessed in every safety case assessment. It should also be noted that this material is only relevant to
safety case assessment and is not sufficient to determine full compliance with all relevant industrial
health & hygiene legislation.
Assessment Sheets
Occupational & industrial health can be said to be the creation of a state of physical, mental and social
wellbeing of the workers in the working environment. The aims should be to promote, protect and
maintain the physical and mental health, and welfare of the workforce. The subdivision of
occupational health into assessment record sheets for the purposes of safety case assessment.
 OH1 - Specialist advice and services

 OH2 - Recognition, evaluation and control of hazards and risks to health
 OH3 - Health care and First–Aid
 OH4 - Welfare & Accommodation
 OH5 - Decommissioning & Dismantlement

2. Assessment Record
2.1 Specialist Advice & Services

To comply with SCR2015 a duty holder must provide information within the Safety Case to identify how industrial health and hygiene specialist Advice
and Services are managed.
The health management system should therefore set out the arrangements for getting access to sufficient occupational health & hygiene knowledge, skills
or experience to identify and manage occupational health risks effectively. The commitment of senior management is essential to this process and the
safety case should demonstrate support of senior management, provision of adequate resource and input from technical specialists as appropriate.
‘Occupational/Industrial Hygienists use science and engineering to control risks to health, by designing out hazards and applying engineering controls to
reduce exposures to a minimum. This approach is designed to protect workers from serious, and even fatal, illnesses caused by work-related activities.

2.2 Occupational Health and Hygiene

To comply with SCR2015 a duty holder must provide information within the Safety Case to manage Occupational Health and Hygiene – Recognition,
Evaluation and Control of hazards and risks to health.
The adequacy of the management system to prevent or control exposure to health risks by recognising health hazards, evaluating the risk and establishing
appropriate control measures is considered. The occupational health hazards may include
 Physical agents (e.g. noise, vibration, radiation)

 Hazardous substances (e.g. chemicals, asbestos)
 Biological agents (e.g. Legionella, food hygiene)
 Manual handling/Ergonomics
 Psychosocial factors
The essential requirements for managing occupational health are just the same as those for any management system. Any sub-system for managing
occupational health functions should therefore have the key features of any good management system i.e. policy, organisation, planning and setting
standards, performance measures and auditing and review. Confirmation should be obtained that a recognised code, standard or body of guidance has been
considered in determining the required performance of the occupational health management system.

2.3 Occupational Health – Health care and First-Aid

To comply with SCR2015 a duty holder must provide information within the Safety Case to state how they will manage Occupational Health - Health Care
and First-Aid.
The Offshore Installations and Pipeline Works (First-Aid) Regulations require provision of health care and first-aid for employees who are injured or
become ill at work.
Confirmation should be obtained that a recognised code, standard or body of guidance has been considered in determining the required performance of the
emergency response management.
Where a standard/code of practice other than those listed above has been employed, judgement as to the adequacy of provision of health care and first
aid can only be assessed on an individual basis and the duty holder should be required to justify why its approach will deliver an equivalent level of health
care and first-aid.
The safety case should include information on the following topics:
11 | P a g e

2.4 Occupational Health – Welfare & Accommodation

To comply with SCR2015 a duty holder must provide information within the Safety Case to outline Occupational Health - Welfare and Accommodation
The Offshore Installations and Pipeline Works (Design and Construction) Regulations 1996 require provision of adequate and appropriate welfare facilities
for the workforce while they are on the installation. This includes sleeping accommodation.
Confirmation should be obtained that a recognised code, standard or body of guidance has been considered in determining the adequacy of
welfare/accommodation.
Where a standard/code of practice other than those listed below has been employed, judgement as to the adequacy of the Welfare/accommodation
provision can only be assessed on an individual basis and the duty holder should be required to justify why its approach will deliver an equivalent level of
welfare/accommodation.
The safety case should include information on the following topics:
 HVAC systems
 Rest room facilities
 Sanitary facilities
 Sleeping accommodation
 The Offshore Installations and Wells (Design and Construction, etc.) Regulations 1996

2.5 Decommissioning and Dismantlement

Implementing the appropriate management approach for occupational health and hygiene hazards during decommissioning and dismantlement work scopes
will ensure that the potential health hazards are anticipated, recognised, evaluated and controlled, and that suitable control measures, that meet as low as
reasonably practicable (ALARP) principles are, put in place, managed and monitored.
To support this the duty holder needs to ensure they identify when to get extra support, what type and from whom, at the different phases of a
decommissioning project.
For personnel who are directly involved in carrying out offshore commissioning activities, they need to be are of the wide range of potential health hazards
present and the risks involved and how these can be mitigated. The objective is to ensure that workers are fully aware of the potential health hazards so
that the risks to their health are minimised/controlled when they are involved in the decommissioning activities.
Industrial hygiene hazards can be present in many of the common stages of decommissioning and dismantling activities, these would include:
 Cessation of Production
 Well P&A
 Pipeline Isolation and removal / leave in situ
 Topsides shut down
 Isolation
 Clean Down
 Early stage dismantling i.e., derrick removal, helideck removal, modular splitting etc
 Dismantling (as defined in SCR, Reg 20)
 The Offshore Installations and Wells (Design and Construction, etc.) Regulations 1996, Regulation 10
 The Offshore Installations (Offshore Safety Directive) (Safety Case etc.) Regulations 2015, Regulation 24, Revision of safety case
 The Offshore Installations (Offshore Safety Directive) (Safety Case etc.) Regulations 2015, Regulation 20, Safety case for dismantling fixed

Appendix 1: Industrial Hygiene Advice
Specialist Advice and Services

There are a range of professional bodies providing accreditation, training and lists of consultants in
their area of occupational health. One source of information is the British Occupational Hygiene
Society (BOHS)which provides information on a variety of courses and qualifications, as well as the
BOHS course approval scheme.
Specific Technical Issues

The role and responsibilities of the health specialists should be made clear. They should be organised
and incorporated into the health and safety management structure and be given enough resources and
freedom to enable them to perform effectively. Health and safety is a line management responsibility
and health professionals should not be used in a way that undermines this position. However, they
play an important part in generating good performance and they should be afforded the appropriate
status and have communication conduits to all levels of management.
19 | P a g e
Appendix 2: Industrial Hygiene Guidance
Industrial Hygiene – Recognition, Evaluation and Control of hazards and risks to health
Specific Technical Issues:

Evidence of compliance with the relevant occupational health statutory requirements should be
provided within the safety case:
Chemicals
Each installation should maintain a complete inventory of hazardous substances used or generated,
together with ‘in-house’ or ‘suppliers’ Safety Data Sheets. Documented risk assessments should be
conducted to assess risk and appropriate controls put in place. For controlling the risk, priority should
be given to elimination of the hazard(s), engineering methods (containment, local exhaust ventilation)
and administrative measures. Reliance upon the use of personal protective equipment should only be
considered as a last resort. Control measures should be subject to testing and maintenance as
appropriate. Health surveillance should also be considered, and appropriate arrangements put in place,
where required.
Asbestos
Unless there is robust evidence that there is no asbestos on the installation, the location, condition,
quantity and type of all asbestos and asbestos containing materials (e.g. insulation materials, gaskets,
brake linings etc) should be determined (or assumed) and an ‘Asbestos Management Plan’ (AMP)
developed. As part of the AMP a risk assessment should be undertaken on the materials and
appropriate action taken. Information on the presence of Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM),
actions etc should be recorded in the AMP and passed to those who need to be made aware. The AMP
should detail how the ACMs will be managed in the long-term e.g. re-inspections, maintaining the
AMP and for dealing with the removal and disposal of asbestos. Particular attention needs to be paid
to maintenance or demolition work which might result in asbestos disturbance.
Noise
Each installation should implement a noise control policy. This should include risk assessment, a
‘Noise Action Plan’, demarcation of high noise areas and health surveillance (audiometry) based on
risk. Over reliance on ‘blanket’ hearing protection policies is often an indication of poor
understanding of the regulations as priority should be given to control of noisy plant and machinery
by engineering means. Noise criteria should be incorporated into design specifications of new plant
and equipment. Consideration also needs to be given to the effect of modifications on existing plant
and structures. Formal arrangements should be put in place for co-operation between operator and
contractor to ensure that, where appropriate, contractor employees are placed under suitable health
surveillance.
Hand-arm Vibration (HAV)

A control strategy should be in place to eliminate or reduce the risk of hand arm vibration syndrome
as a result of working with handheld power tools and other vibrating equipment. This should include a
Tool register, with ‘in-house’ or ‘suppliers’ data on vibration levels for each tool and an assessment of
who may be at risk. Control options to consider are alternative work methods, equipment selection,
workstation design and management of work schedules. The tools should be maintained, and health
surveillance provided for workers who are likely to be exposed above the exposure action value.
Ionising Radiation
20 | P a g e
Where sources of ionising radiation are used (e.g. site radiography, nucleonic gauges) or where
workers are exposed to naturally occurring radiation (i.e. NORM/LSA scale); exposure to ionising
radiations must be kept as low as reasonably practicable. Exposures should not exceed specified dose
limits and restriction of exposure should be achieved first by means of engineering control and design
features. A safe system of work should be introduced, and personal protective equipment only
introduced as a last resort.
Thermal Environment
Thermal conditions which may pose a risk to health or wellbeing should be evaluated and procedures
developed to ensure that the risk to personnel is minimised.
Manual handling
Where there is a possibility of risks to employees from the manual handling of loads; a suitable and
sufficient assessment should be made, and the risk of injury reduced to the lowest level reasonably
practicable. The assessment should consider avoiding manual handling (e.g. automation), redesigning
the load, redesigning the task, redesigning the work environment and introducing mechanical
handling aids.
Microbiological hazards
Microbiological contamination of food and water must be controlled to minimise the risk of disease
i.e. food poisoning and water-borne diseases. The Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP)
system is the benchmark means of assessing food and water safety
Duty holders are further required to ensure that an adequate supply of clean wholesome drinking
water is available at suitable locations on an offshore installation, and the purity of the water supply is
maintained and that such locations are clearly marked to show that drinking water is there.
Legionella
Typical offshore potable water systems include: all water transfer equipment (e.g. bunkering hoses),
water makers, storage facilities, distribution pipework, utilities, ancillary plant and equipment such as
pumps and water softeners etc.
To comply with their legal duties, duty holders should:
(a) identify and assess sources of risk. This includes checking whether conditions will encourage
bacteria to multiply
(b) if appropriate, prepare a written scheme for preventing or controlling the risk
(c) implement, manage and monitor precautions – if control measures are to remain effective, regular
monitoring of the systems and control measures is essential
(d) keep records of the precautions
(e) appoint a competent person with sufficient authority and knowledge of the water system to help
take the measures needed to comply with the law
