Hazard Ratings Page | 8 Document Health & Safety Manual Version 3 Date 1 September 2016 ______Definition of a hazard A hazard is any activity, situation or substance that can cause harm.

Significant Significant hazard means a hazard that is an actual or potential cause or source of: 1. Serious harm, or 2. Harm (being that is more than trivial) the severity of whose effects on any person depend (entirely or amongst other things) on the extent or frequency of the persons exposure to the hazard or 3. Harm that does not usually occur, or usually is not easily detectable, until a significant time after exposure to the hazard.

Hazard Control and Management Hazard control can be achieved in three main ways: Elimination Achieved by removing the hazardous plant, equipment, substance or by discontinuing work methods or processes. Substitution is one such form of elimination, by replacing the problem area with a safer alternative. Isolation Achieved by placing some kind of barrier or distance between the hazard and the people in the hazard zone. Using controls such using barriers to keep personnel away from the operation are both methods of isolating hazards. Minimisation If the hazard cannot be managed by above methods, then we must minimise exposure via such actions as: 1. Following safe and accepted work practices as per rules and guidelines. 2. Provide suitable PPE and ensure it is maintained and used correctly. 3. Maintain all equipment properly. 4. Provide adequate supervision and where necessary training. 5. Monitor exposure and health (such as health checks) if required.

Hazard Risk Score Assessment To determine the combined risk score for the hazard the three categories score are multiplied together to get an overall risk score. Exposure x Likelihood x Consequence = Risk Eg 3 x 3 x 3 = 27 The higher the final risk score the greater the risk of injury. Page | 9 Document Health & Safety Manual Version 3 Date 1 September 2016 ______E = Exposure to hazard L= Likehood of harm resulting C= Consequence (probable result of potential accident) 5 = Continuous 5 = Happens all the time 5 = Major disaster 4 = Very frequent/many times per day 4 = Expected 4 = Death 3 = Daily 3 = Quite possible 3 = Major injury/very serious 2 = Occ/Weekly 2 = Unusual 2 = Minor injury 1 = Rarely 1 = Practically impossible 1 = Negligible
