This job hazard analysis identifies hazards associated with radiography and NDT testing work. Key hazards include vehicle collisions when transporting radiation sources, unauthorized access to sources, and exposure to radiation. Mitigation measures require qualified technicians, radiation monitoring, barricading of work areas, personal protective equipment, and securing sources for transport.

STEP HAZARD CAUSE MITIGATION / PREVENTIVE MEASURE
A valid work permit shall be obtained from Air Products and notification has been forwarded prior to job start. Vehicles carrying the sources shall be stored and secured in a Bodily injury, respiratory metal box that is fix to the carrier and a warning sign should Vehicle collision infliction and may lead to be posted visibly noting “DANGER” RADIATION. Preparation Exposing of sources death/fatality Only qualified and experienced NDT Technician shall be Handling and transporting doing such specific job and a Radiation Protection Supervisor Unauthorized handling and Exposure to the sources and of sources working on Radiography the strength that could lead (RPS) shall be always available and monitoring the radiography will in progress. A notification and coordination to fatality/death to other or neighboring contractor is to be made in order to let them aware of the activities especially if the task were near in their area. Prior to commencement on radiography, ensure that the Personnel Health disorder entire area has been barricaded and radiation warnings that may could lead to fatality posters shall be locate visibly as well as blinker lights will be or death depending the provided. Exposure to the sources strength Ensure that the technicians have the radiation survey meter. Cal meter shall be available and it has to use in areas where it Unauthorized entry Exposure to the sources that Radiography Works required. Source decay table chart shall be made available to could lead to sever health determine the accurate current source strength. problems or possibility of Inadequate Illumination A technician or watchman is to standby in nearby barricaded death/fatality area to ensure no one can enter except for the qualified technician and the Radiation Protection Supervisor. Personnel bodily injury Adequate lighting shall be provided into entire work area. Tripping, slip and fall Personnel head and bodily All access and egress shall be cleared with unwanted tools and Removal of Sources and injury materials that are to cause trip, slip and fall hazards. Wear accessories appropriate personal protective equipment at all time i.e. Exposure to sources Exposure to the sources that helmet, safety glasses (clear or dark), steel toed safety shoes or boots. Full-body harness may require and shall be worn. Ensure that the technicians have the radiation survey meter. Cal meter shall be available and it has to use in areas where it could lead to sever health required. Source decay table chart shall be made available to problems or possibility of determine the accurate current source strength. Upon death/fatality completing the task, all tools shall be retrieve and keep them in the correct vehicle, which is containing warning signs of radiation, and the source shall be kept in the metal box built in the vehicle.
