for reduction.

Having gathered information, it is then necessary to make an analysis of incident

a. Establish the chain of events leading to the accident or incident.
b. Find out at what stage the accident took place.
c. Consider all possible causes and the interaction of different factors that led up to the
accident and identify the most probable causes. The cause of an accident should never be
classified as carelessness. The specific unsafe act or condition that caused the accident
must be identified.
The next stage is to proceed with the follow-up action
 a. Report on the findings and conclusions.
b. Formulate preventive measure to avoid recurrence.
c. Communicate the finding and remedial actions taken to EOHS Head.

EOHS INSPECTION: -

Risk Assessment
HIRA

Method For Hazard Identification & Risk Assessment (HIRA)

a. For HIRA we need to identify OHS concern/ Hazard- physical, chemical, biological, ergonomic involved
in all the activities. It should be identified on their probability of the occurrence and impact of that
particular hazard of the activity.
b. The rating for the HIRA would be defined by the following criteria:
c. Impact Rating in the scale of Low-L, Medium-M & H-High.
d. Probability rating in the scale of Low-L, Medium-M & H-High.
e. In order to get the value of significant risk and the Risk Priority No; determine the value of RPN from the
risk matrix in the scale of 1-5. If the value of RPN or Risk Level is 3 or more than 3, then consider it as
significant

Hierarchy of Controls
Controlling exposures to hazards in the workplace is vital to protecting workers. The hierarchy of controls
is a way of determining which actions will best control exposures. The hierarchy of controls has five levels
of actions to reduce or remove hazards. The preferred order of action based on general effectiveness is:
1. Elimination
2. Substitution
3. Engineering controls
4. Administrative controls
5. Personal protective equipment (PPE)
Using this hierarchy can lower worker exposures and reduce risk of illness or injury.
Elimination
Elimination removes the hazard at the source. This could include changing the work process to stop using a
toxic chemical, heavy object, or sharp tool. It is the preferred solution to protect workers because no
exposure can occur.
Substitution
Substitution is using a safer alternative to the source of the hazard. An example is using plant-based
printing inks as a substitute for solvent-based inks.
When considering a substitute, it’s important to compare the potential new risks of the substitute to the
original risks. This review should consider how the substitute will combine with other agents in the
workplace. Effective substitutes reduce the potential for harmful effects and do not create new risks.

Elimination and substitution can be the most difficult actions to adopt into an existing process. These
methods are best used at the design or development stage of a work process, place, or tool. At the
development stage, elimination and substitution may be the simplest and cheapest option. Another good
opportunity to use elimination and substitution is when selecting new equipment or procedures. Prevention
through Design is an approach to proactively include prevention when designing work equipment, tools,
operations, and spaces.

Engineering Controls
Engineering controls reduce or prevent hazards from coming into contact with workers. Engineering
controls can include modifying equipment or the workspace, using protective barriers, ventilation, and
more. The NIOSH Engineering Controls Database has examples of published engineering control research
findings.
The most effective engineering controls:
 are part of the original equipment design
 remove or block the hazard at the source before it comes into contact with the worker
 prevent users from modifying or interfering with the control
 need minimal user input for the controls to work
 operate correctly without interfering with the work process or making the work process more difficult
Engineering controls can cost more upfront than administrative controls or PPE. However, long-term
operating costs tend to be lower, especially when protecting multiple workers. In addition, engineering
controls can save money in other areas of the work process or facility operation.
Administrative Controls
Administrative controls establish work practices that reduce the duration, frequency, or intensity of
exposure to hazards. This may include:
 work process training
 job rotation
 ensuring adequate rest breaks
 limiting access to hazardous areas or machinery
 adjusting line speeds
PPE
PPE is equipment worn to minimize exposure to hazards. Examples of PPE include gloves, safety glasses,
hearing protection, hard hats, and respirators. When employees use PPE, employers should implement a
PPE program. While elements of the PPE program depend on the work process and the identified PPE, the
program should address:
 workplace hazards assessment
 PPE selection and use
 inspection and replacement of damaged or worn-out PPE
 employee training
 program monitoring for continued effectiveness
Employers should not rely on PPE alone to control hazards when other effective control options are
available. PPE can be effective, but only when workers use it correctly and consistently. PPE might seem
to be less expensive than other controls, but can be costly over time. This is especially true when used for
multiple workers on a daily basis.
When other control methods are unable to reduce the hazardous exposure to safe levels, employers must
provide PPE. This includes:
 while other controls are under development
 when other controls cannot sufficiently reduce the hazardous exposure
 when PPE is the only control option available
Administrative controls and PPE require significant and ongoing effort by workers and their supervisors.
They are useful when employers are in the process of implementing other control methods from the
hierarchy. Additionally, administrative controls and PPE are often applied to existing processes where
hazards are not well controlled.
Training and evaluation can help ensure selected controls are successful. Employers should correctly train
workers and supervisors on how to use controls. Workers and their supervisors should evaluate controls on
a regular basis. Regular evaluation can check whether controls are effective in reducing workers’ exposures
and identify potential improvements.
VII List of Checklists / Formats / Permits:
Work permits: - In the context of construction and industrial sites,
are documents that authorize specific work activities to take place,
ensuring that safety measures are in place and adhered to. These permits
help in the regulation and management of diverse tasks, from routine
maintenance to high-risk operations.
