7.0 Guideline for Hazard Identification & Risk Assessment 7.1 Hazard Identification

Hazard:

Sources or situation with a potential for harm in terms of injury or ill health to person(s), damage or loss of assets / property, damage to the work place environment or a

combination of these. In short, hazards are “Sources of risk” Hazard Identification (Find it):

Process of recognizing that a hazard exists and defining its characteristics. It is a fact finding exercise. The objective is to reveal all possible potentials for harm or

damage that exist in a system or a process or organization being analyzed.

7.2 Risk Assessment

Risk: A chance that an event will occur which will result in personal injury or loss a

measure of the probability and severity of adverse effects from exposure to a hazard. It means how

likely an adverse effect (harm) will be the consequences.

8.0 INCIDENT INVESTIGATION PROCEDURE

The purpose of this procedure is to ensure a safe workplace for all employees,

contractors and clients through effective and systematic Incident investigation and reporting mechanisms, to ensure that further risks of workplace incidents are eliminated.

8.1 An incident

'Incident' for the purposes of this procedure includes:

� Any event that results in injury or disease no matter how minor;

� Any dangerous occurrence - this term includes near misses - any event that endangers the health or safety of a person;

� Any event that results in death.

8.1.1 Systematic Management of Incidents The organization is committed to maintaining a safe and healthy environment for all

employees and non employees. Whilst incidents involving employees or non employees should never occur, unfortunately due to a number of reasons, they may

still happen.

ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH AND SAFETY MANUAL

DOC :ADIPL/EHSMNL REV. No. : 01 Dt. : 03.06.13

Page 21

Incident investigation and analysis can be still seen as a systematic pro-active

approach to the continuous improvement of the HS Management System. Constructive investigations yield essential information, which will assist in:

� Determining injury rates

� Identifying trends and problem areas; � Permitting comparisons to be made, for example between injury rates for

different areas of the workplace, across different time frames and involving different types of injury;

� Complying with legal requirements, for example, providing data required for personal injury claims involving workers compensation payments.

� Identifying the basic causes that contributed directly, or indirectly, to each

Incident � Identifying deficiencies in the EHS Management System that permitted the

incident to occur;

� Suggesting specific corrective action alternatives for the management system.

8.2 Reporting Process

1. Employee witnesses or is involved in an incident – the employee must complete Incident Reporting and Investigation Form and Injury Register (if injured) and report to management within 24 hours.

2. The responsible manager will report injury to insurer and enforcing authority (if

applicable) within the statutory reporting timeframes.

3. Management in consultation with employees will ensure immediate interim action is taken as required to minimize risk within the workplace.

4. Manager will investigate incident and review concerns raised. The level of investigation will be determined at this stage.

5. The responsible manager will carry out necessary interviews and review documentation (within the investigation team – if full investigation is warranted).

6. The responsible manager will complete the final section of the Incident Reporting

and Investigation Form.

ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH AND SAFETY MANUAL

DOC :ADIPL/EHSMNL REV. No. : 01 Dt. : 03.06.13

Page 22

7. The responsible manager will complete the necessary risk management documentation i.e. risk register and action plan.

8. Corrective actions will be implemented according to the risk action plan.

9. All documentation must be kept on file for easy access and retrieval, if required.

10. All incidents will be reviewed by management and health and safety representatives on a regular basis.

8.3 Determining the Root Cause

All incidents, including near misses, must be reported within 24 hours of the

occurrence an investigation undertaken by management (scope of investigation dependant on degree of injury).

There are essentially two major reasons why the organization investigates incidents,these are:

� To determine the true and accurate circumstances which led up to and contributed to the event, and

� To prevent the event occurring again, potentially with even greater

repercussions.

8.3.1 Root Causes

Identifying the root cause of an incident may be a relatively complicated process.

Several coincidental causes making up a chain of causation factors may be identified, none of which alone may have resulted in the incident.

The basic concept of incident prevention is that incidents can have several causes, each of which must be identified and controlled.

Accurate, clear and complete information is needed from the investigation process. Details which should be recorded and included in the incident investigation report

are:-

� A description of the sequence of events leading to the incident � Correct identification of all causal factors � A description of all causal factors

� The corrective actions already taken � Further recommendations for Corrective Actions

First-aid is the immediate care given to the victim of an accident or sudden illness

before the arrival of a qualified expert. The purpose of First-aid is to preserve life,

assist recovery, prevent aggravation and minimize complications at a later date.

(1) First Aid Treatment

Help the injured with first aid treatment. Teach yourself some simple, but very useful techniques.

People with serious injuries will need treatment from specialists, but the below first

aid treatments should be applied while waiting to see a specialist.

When someone has lost consciousness >> secure the airway. When someone loses consciousness due to an injury to the head or for some other reason, the back of the tongue may roll down the throat, blocking the

airway to the lungs. In such situations you must facilitate a passage for air down the windpipe. This is called securing the airway.

When someone has lost consciousness but is breathing regularly.

Put the person in the position shown below:

FIRST AID

ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH AND SAFETY MANUAL

DOC :ADIPL/EHSMNL REV. No. : 01 Dt. : 03.06.13

Page 24

When someone is not breathing or is not breathing comfortably. Secure the airway by laying the person face-up, tilting their head back and

by lifting their chin up.

When securing an airway, always check that the mouth is clear of obstruction and remove any foreign objects or phlegm. When someone is bleeding >> Stop

the bleeding

1. Apply pressure directly above the wound with a gauze or wide and thick

handkerchief. 2. If the wrist is bleeding then raising that part of the body to a position

higher than the heart an then applying pressure is effective.

Indirect Pressure Method 1. When there is hemorrhaging, due to arterial bleeding, with blood

gushing out in time with the rhythm of the heart, applying the direct pressure method may not be enough to stop the bleeding. In these

cases, apply pressure with your fingers to the artery at a position closer to the heart than the wound itself.

*Position of wounds and where to apply pressure

When there is facial bleeding,

apply pressure in front of the

ears.

When the upper arm is bleeding,

apply pressure underneath the

armpit.

When there is bleeding

beneath the elbow, apply

pressure on the inside of the

elbow.

When there is bleeding from the

leg, apply pressure at the top of

the thigh.

When there are burns 1. Cool the area that has been burnt with clean water as quickly as

possible. 2. Before removing clothes or stockings, cool that area with water. Then

wrap the area with a clean blanket and take the injured person to a hospital. When more than 10% of the body has been burnt then it is

considered to be a serious injury and must be treated by a doctor quickly.

ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH AND SAFETY MANUAL

DOC :ADIPL/EHSMNL REV. No. : 01 Dt. : 03.06.13

Page 26

When there is, or there is suspected to be, a broken bone Affix a splint

1. If there is a life-threatening condition then give priority to the treatment of that.

2. When fixing a splint, fix it in the position that the injured person is in,

without trying to set the bone and making sure you don't rock the body carelessly.

3. Affix the splint over a length that encompasses the joints both above and below the suspected break.

4. When the broken bone is exposed, treat the wound with clean gauze

first and then affix a splint.

When there has been an electrocution 1. Firstly, switch off the electrical mains. Take appropriate caution -

rushing in carelessly to help a victim can result in the rescuer also

being electrocuted. 2. Move the injured to a safe location.

3. Check their breathing and pulse. If they have stopped breathing then cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and heart massage may be necessary.

4. It may be the case that the victim’s clothes have been burnt by the shock and there are burns that need to be dealt with in the same

manner as other burns. How to give CPR

1. Firstly, secure the airway in the correct manner. If the air passage is

not clear then blowing down the airway will have no effect. 2. As the faces of babies and toddlers are small, blow with your mouth

covering both their mouth and nose. 3. Blow at a pace of 12 - 15 times a minute for adults and 15 - 18 times

a minute for young children and babies.

4. Make sure that the air that you blow in is entering the person's body and also being exhaled properly by looking at the rising and falling of

the injured person’s chest. In cases where the stomach area expands after you have blown in, gently press this area with the palm of your hand.

ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH AND SAFETY MANUAL

DOC :ADIPL/EHSMNL REV. No. : 01 Dt. : 03.06.13

Page 27

During CPR, there is a danger that the contents of an expanded

stomach may be pushed out and absorbed into the lungs so take

appropriate caution.

5. When there is neither respiration nor a pulse it will be necessary to carry out CPR and heart massaging in tandem. 1.

Sit next to the person, and secure the airway in

the correct fashion and pinch the nose.

2.

Take a deep breath and then open your mouth

widely, place it over the unconscious person’s

mouth and its surrounding area. Breathe into the

person’s mouth until the chest gently rises.

Artificial respiration for toddlers and babies

1. As their faces are small, you should breathe into both their mouth and nose at the same time.

2. Your breathing should cause their chest to rise gently, and should be at a fast pace, with one breath coming ever three seconds.

3. Pushing the head back too forcefully may actually obstruct the airway

because as the necks of babies are very flexible. Instead, as shown in the diagram, tip the chin forward and carry out artificial respiration

with both hands.

Mouth to Mouth: This is appropriate and effective technique for emergency

artificial respiration. Keep the head slightly backward and open the jaw.

Seal the casualty’s nose to prevent escape of air by pinching with thumb and index finger.

Take a deep breath, open your mouth widely, place it over the victim’s mouth and make a tight seal.

Quickly blow the full breath into the mouth of victim.

Remove your mouth from the victim and allow him to exhale passively. Repeat the procedure 12 to 15 times per minute, till medical aid is arranged.

Arrange immediate medical aid.

CAUTIONARY NOTE

Do not give mouth to mouth resuscitation during CPR in the

presence of toxins such as cyanide, hydrogen sulphide, corrosives and organo-phosphates. Ventilate the

casualty by using a face mask or bag/valve/mask assembly.

Avoid mouth to mouth resuscitation if there is possibility

of transmission of infection between the victim and the

rescuer, such as HIV, Hepatitis-B, Tuberculosis, Shigellosis,

Meningococcal meningitis, Herpes simplex virus and Salmonella. Use an interpositional airway device

which must function effectively in both its resuscitation and

protective roles, and be immediately available at all times.
