Controlling exposure to occupational hazards is the
fundamental method of protecting workers.
HAZARD is a potential source of
harm or adverse health effect on
a person or persons.
Introduction
Traditionally, Hierarchy of controls has been used as a means of
determining how to implement feasible and effective controls.

Hierarchy of hazard control
It involves the physical removal
of the hazard
which involves removing
something that produces a
hazard and replacing with
something that does not
produce a hazard.

Location of the Investigation
The following project includes an assessment to the
workplace hazards in Muharraq STP and the
recommended solutions to meet the best safety
practices
There are many hazards observed in the workplace at
Muharraq STP Project. The following table shows
some of these hazardous conditions and theadequate solution for each one using the hierarchy
hazards control:

Recommendation
Proper planning and work execution
All activities shall be carried only with the assistance of
standby rescue equipment .
All required work permit shall be obtained before
starting the job
Supervisor shall conduct DAILY TOOLBOX MEETING &
explain the risk involved and control measure to all
workers.
Workers must be aware of the hazards and safe work
procedures while working

All heavy equipment shall be check thoroughly before
work execution as a part of periodical maintenances
schedule check.
Movement of equipment must be accompanied by
trained flagman
Only certified operator only operate the equipment( with valid license and 3rd party certificate).
The area must be barricaded and installed warning signs.
All equipment must be inspected and in good working

Conclusion
The existence of workplace hazards is almost unpreventable.
The procedures made to maintain the safety and health in
the workplace are of high regards, but the key element in
assuring these procedures are met and complied with is to
assure a tough caring environment to the workers who willfollow these instructions and procedures.
Provision of training and enhancing the safety program by
periodic assessment to the system might help in decreasingthe dangers in workplace and lower the risks of injuries and
losses in human beings and properties.
