Safety Procedures in High Risk Activities

Hazard Identification The first step in Safety Risk Management is to identify

hazards that the organization faces in its operational environment.

Risk Assessment - Each identified hazard undergoes a risk assessment to

determine its potential consequences.

Risk Control - Risk control is a technique that utilizes findings from risk
assessments and implementing changes to reduce risk in these areas.

1. Responsible manager or supervisor or

equipment custodian

Assigns an authorized worker to

conduct a hazard analysis. The
worker must be a competent
person familiar with the equipment
and work scope.

2. Authorized worker

Reviews the scope of work and

affected machine, equipment, or
system

3.

Work areas must be kept clean and

free of obstructions.

Access to emergency equipment or

exits must never be blocked.

Equipment and chemicals must be

stored properly.

4. Authorized Worker

Identifies all energy sources

(electrical, mechanical, thermal,
potential, pneumatic, hydraulic,
chemical, and radiological, et
cetera)

5.Authorized Worker

Determines if any energy sources are

hazardous

If the value of the hazardous energy

falls in the Evaluate Hazard and
Consider Lockout column, lockout
should be used if the authorized
worker determines that lockout is
warranted based on an evaluation of
all hazards, including secondary
hazards and combined hazards,
associated with the work scope and
equipment or system conditions;
otherwise lockout is not required.

If the value falls in the Lockout

Required column, lockout is required.

For energy types without an explicit

value, consults additional applicable
resources to make a determination
(such as information in this document
and relevant ESH Manual chapters, and
the control of hazardous energy
(CoHE) program manager, responsible
directorate ESH coordinator, safety
officer, and subject matter experts

6.

Wastes must be placed in

appropriate, labeled containers.

7. Authorized Worker

Evaluates each task including

setup, installation, removal,
adjusting, cleaning,
troubleshooting, and programming
to analyze for hazards

8. Authorized worker in consultation with

building or area manager, if necessary

Evaluates the work environment

for potentially hazardous
combinations

9. Authorized worker

There are four basic steps in

conducting a task hazard analysis:
1. Selecting the Task to be Analyzed
2. Breaking the Task into Steps
3. Identifying Potential Hazards
4. Determining Preventative Measures

There are five method you can use to

identify workplace hazards:

informal observation and formal

observation programs

comprehensive company widesurveys

individual interviews

walk-around inspections and,

documentation review
