The first step in ensuring a safe workplace is to identify hazards. There are a number of ways to find hazards in your workplace which is
ask workers and contractors in your workplace about any hazards they may have noticed, look at the physical structure of your workplace for
example, stairs, desks, floor surfaces, exits, driveways, check all machinery, appliances and vehicles used for work, examine how substances are
stored, used and moved from one place to another and review your injury records, including ‘near misses’as well as review information from
designers, manufacturers or suppliers of the equipment and substances in your workplace.
The second step is a checklist which can help you examine your work environment, the tasks your workers do, and the machinery/equipment
used in your workplace. You can use a checklists for regular/ frequent tasks; for example, a maintenance checklist or a daily pre-start checklist
for equipment to make sure it’s in safe working order. See Resources below for samples. Print them off, grab a pen and do a walkabout, talking
to the workers involved in the environment, task or equipment you’re checking.
The third step assess the risk of hazards. A risk is the likelihood of a hazard causing injury, illness or damage to your health. Your list of hazards
may be long, with some hazards posing more safety risks than others. So you need to work out which hazards are more serious than other and
deal with those first. To assess the risk associated with each hazard, ask these questions:
What's the worst possible damage the hazard could cause to someone’s health?
How likely is the hazard to cause someone harm?
You should also consider how many people are exposed to the hazards, and remember that everyone is different. A hazard may pose more risk
to some people than others because of differences in physical strength, experience and training.
Moreover, fix the problem.You should always aim to remove a hazard completely from your workplace. Where this isn’t practical, you should
work through the other alternatives systematically. Some problems may be fixed easily and straight away, while others will need more effort
and planning. Concentrate on the most urgent hazards without neglecting the simpler ones that could be easily and immediately fixed. Some
solutions are more effective than others. Make sure your solution does not introduce new hazards.
Finally, evaluate the results. After you think you’ve fixed the problem, find out whether the changes have been effective. Get feedback from
those affected by the changes and include them in any modifications to their workplace or work routines. Look at your incident records to see
if numbers are going down. Make sure your solution does not introduce new hazards. Maybe you and your workers can even see more ways to
make further improvements. Set a date to re-assess the risk.
3.2 Risk assessment
For the recommendation, we suggest that OSHA's Hazard Communication Standard gives workers the right to know
about hazards in the workplace. Employers have obligations to provide workers with training, information, PPE and other
safety measures dealing with hazards. Employees should remember to take training seriously and pay attention, read labels
and SDSs, know where to find the SDSs, use appropriate PPE , know correct emergency procedures and use safe work habits.
