1. Explain completely how to do hazard identification. Choose one simple


job to explain your answer

Answer:
Hazard identification is part of the process used to evaluate if any
particular situation, item, thing, etc. may have the potential to cause harm.
The term often used to describe the full process is risk assessment.
 Identify hazards and risk factors that have the potential to cause
harm (hazard identification)
 Analyse and evaluate the risk associated with hazard (risk analysis,
and risk evaluation)
 Determine appropriate ways to eliminate the hazard, or control the
risk when the hazard cannot be eliminated (risk control).
Overall, the goal of hazard identification is to find and record
possible hazards that may be present in workplace.
Hazard identification can be done:
o During design and implementation
- Designing a new process or procedure
- Purchasing and installing new machinery
o Before task are done
- Checking equipment or following processes
- Reviewing surroundings before each shift
o While task is being done
- Be aware of changes, abnormal conditions, or sudden emission
o During inspection
- Formal, informal supervisor, health and safety committee
o After incidents
- Near miss or minor events
- Injuries

2. Explain comprehensively away to do risk assessment based on AS/NZS.


Answer:
Risk assessment is an essential part of the risk management process
and is the overall term covering the risk identification, analysis and risk
evaluation part of the risk management process (AS/NZS Risk
Management Standard 4360:2004).
Figure 1. Risk Management Process

1. Identify the Risks Risk is defined as “the chance of something


happening that will have an impact on the achievement of
organisational stated objectives” (HSE 2008). This step in the risk
assessment process seeks to identify the risks to be managed. A risk
assessment may concentrate on one or more area of impact relevant to
the organisation or activity i.e., it may be specific to a particular
project or hazard area e.g., biological hazards or it may be conducted
on a more general basis e.g., for the purpose of developing a service or
organisational risk register.
2. Analyse the Risk analysis is about developing an understanding of the
risks identified. In subjecting a risk to analysis, it is essential that
account is taken of the existing control measures.
3. Evaluate the Risks The purpose of risk evaluation is to make decisions
based on the outcome of the risk analysis regarding which risks require
treatment and the priorities of that treatment. Depending on the risk
rating and the adequacy of the current controls in place an evaluation is
made whether to:
- accept the risk or
- treat the risk by: i) Avoiding the risk, ii) Transferring the risk or
iii) Controlling the risk.
4. Treat the Risks There are three basic methods of treating (actioning)
the risk, these are:
3. Explain about determining control hierarchy
Answer:
The hierarchy of control is a system for controlling risks in the
workplace. The hierarchy of control is a step-by-step approach to
eliminating or reducing risks and it ranks risk controls from the highest
level of protection and reliability through to the lowest and least reliable
protection.
Eliminating the hazard and risk is the highest level of control in the
hierarchy, followed by reducing the risk through substitution, isolation and
engineering controls, then reducing the risk through administrative
controls. Reducing the risk through the use of protective personal
equipment (PPE) is the lowest level of control.
The following element shows the structure of the hierarchy of
control, from most effective control to least effective.
