RISK MANAGEMENT PLAN
In a working environment, people will always be exposed to risks and hazards and can have both physical and mental
consequences if not dealt with correctly. The purpose of a risk management plan is to ensure the safety of those involved projects.
There is a duty of care that all engineers must abide by to ensure that all practices are safe for all those involved.

A hazard (according to Prof Nicoleta Maynard in week 3 lecture powerpoint) is a physical situation with potential for human injury, damage to
our environment or even in some cases both. A hazard is a source to which risks can stem from. In order to assess hazards we can
identify potential sources that would cause this injury or damage.

Whereas a risk (according to Prof Nicoleta Maynard in week 3 lecture powerpoint) is the chance of something happening that could cause a
specific level of harm to people, property or environment. To assess risk, we can analyse mechanisms by which these undesired
events could occur. When assessing risks, engineers need to consider both the likelihood and severity of each situation. By doing
so they can implement mitigation to reduce the risk involved in the project. Each risk must be properly assessed to ensure that the
safety of those involved is kept as a main priority. However, there will always be residual risk involved in all projects which cannot
be avoided no matter what mitigations are put in place.

A good source used to assess the risk of situations is by comparing the likelihood against the consequences or severity. This was
introduced as the risk matrix and is shown below. By using this matrix, engineers can assess risks ranging from low to extreme and
this can help them find ways of prevention or mitigation in order to reduce the risk and uphold safety in the work place.

COMMUNICATION

To ensure a worry free construction phase, a clear line of communication must always be open. This line of communication will be used to
bring up queries, concerns and suggestions. To achieve this SRSA requires that tenderers are able to provide and use either facebook
messenger or email.

0 15 30

Tenderers are not able to use
Facebook messenger to
communicate, and reply later
than 24 hours to emails.
Tenderers are able to
communicate via facebook
messenger and/or reply to
emails within 24hrs.
Tenderers reply within the hour
(during working hours
communicate via facebook
messenger and/or reply to
emails within 24hrs.

AVAILABILITY

For a smooth and effective construction phase, it is crucial to not only have open communications via email and messenger but also have a set
one hour, weekly meeting time in which both parties; designers and contractors are available to meet up in order to talk progress, ideas and
concerns. Having regular meetings will not only facilitate clear communication between designers and contractors but will also establish an
element of consistency throughout the construction phase which will work to eliminate the burden of time constraints, and promote positive time
management. The times that are made available for meetings are as follows:
Monday 3:00 -> 4:00pm
Wednesday 1:00 -> 2:00pm

COMPETENCY

To guarantee an efficient and effective construction phase SRSA requests that not only must tenderness submit their perceived level of
competency, but also their experience alongside as proof of capability. Proof of competency can include but is not limited to:
An attached school report displaying the class and grade received for classes in which power tools were used ie. Metalwork, woodwork,
systems technology etc.
A picture of any project worked on where power tools were demanded ie. A mug holder, a bird house or simply any project requiring
power tools.
Any other file the tenderers deem acceptable proof may also be submitted as proof, but ultimately it will come down to the judgement of
the SRSA to see if the proof will be deemed acceptable or not.

SAFETY

Health and safety are a universal must, to ensure that the construction phase runs smoothly, with as much mitigation to risk as possible SRSA
requests that contractors follow safe work practises.
