Part 1: Background
I also reviewed documentation interrelated with accidents and incidents that had occurred over
the last 2 years whether any accidents were recurring or any incident was leading to accidents. I
also inspected the reason behind the absence of workers due to illness.
After communicating with the workers , observation of the site, accident, incident record

Moral, general legal and financial
It is moral duty of Banu Mukhtar Contracting to provide safely environment for their workers. The
arguments
basic focus of Banu Mukhtar is safety of their worker. All workers should have a safe environment
to complete their assigned Job. Our skilled and non-skilled person came to earn their wages not to
face any accident and any incidents. As Banu Mukhtar know the moral importance towards safe
returning of their employees cause ill health may a major impact on employees live and their
families .An illness may affect workers health mentally physically . An illness doesn’t affect only the

under the ILOs safety and Health Convention (C-155)
Legal

Specific legal arguments OSHA standard (1926.57 C - Ventilation) narrated Design and operations for exhaust fans ,jets
,ducts ,hood and Separators .A dust Collector should be designed to maintain health safety
program active for the workers who are working in dusty areas .By installation of Dust collector
sufficient purified air will be available for the workers who are exposures to the dust. Dust collector
is used for safe disposal of dust and purifies the atmosphere area of working place. Its legal
responsibilities of employer to provide safe working environment
Consideration of likelihood AND severity The likelihood of illness in working place is high because workers are working in the exposure of
dust particles .Workers are at risks without proper safety measurement The likelihood of risks
range from acute to high risks .The severity of this risk is totally dependent upon inhalation in dusty
polluted . It may be short term risk like skin irritation and visual disruption. It may be long term risk
like Asthma, lung cancer etc.
From prescription of risk the severity may be described in four stages due to dust as following :
When measuring the severity risk are categorized in 4 different phase
Action Safe working platform for working at height and third party inspection certificate by scaffolding
inspector ( Hazard Category work at Height)
Specific legal arguments The international labour organization have a clear recommendation upon occupational safety and
health (R164) part of C-155.Part IV clearly mentioned that undertaking organization must

working zone and it should be maintained for immediate use. Country Fire department adopted
OSHA slandered as part of its legislation .Banu Mukhtar has legal responsibility to fulfil the
requirement of country fire department as well as OSHA slandered to continue their working
Planned review date/period with It is company policy to review all risks every year .Therefore I set risk assessment review data not
reasoning later than 6 Feburary 2023. However risk assessments have no legal time scale when you can
review your risk assessment. It is totally dependent upon organization demand and hence it can be
reviewed on following bases:
1. Risk assessment review required If there is any new working Procedure adopted by the
organization
2. Risk assessment review needed If there is any new legal procedure implemented by the
national enforcement agencies
3. Risk assessment is compulsory if there is any catastrophic event occurred organizations.
How the risk assessment findings will be I will arrange a meeting with Project Director, HSE Manager, and Site Engineer to brief about risks
communicated AND who you need to tell occurring on the sites and suggest actions about correction or minimizing the risk. I provided the
summary of all risks related to the construction sites to the Project Director .Meanwhile Agenda of
meetings, recommendations of meeting and conclusion points of the meeting will email to all
concerned person for record .Major risks should be conveyed to the all employees via tool box talk
or by posters. A summary of risk assessment and safe procedure of work place will be delivered
via social media page to all employees of firms
How you will follow up on the risk I will set a reminder of 15 days to remind the concerned department for implementation of
assessment to check that the actions suggested recommendations for corrections. I will talk to the responsible authorities about the
have been carried out status of procedure either they implemented or still the action is required .Meanwhile I will also
inquire if the actions is still pending, if the actions are still pending then I will try to know the reason
behind it .If there will be any problems to handle the situation ,I will discuss with project director
either there is any alternative solution of the actions .If these will be remain overdue for more than 3
month then an information will be conveyed to the Managing Director via Project director for
actions.
