"as far as reasonable practicable" to minimize the risk in a engineering management project
find the risk or hazard
unguarded holes, penetrations and voids
investigate work place incidents and find the root cause
asbestos and asbestos-containing materials
electrical hazards
monitor the workplace incidents and find the root cause of the problem
check the daily incident reports
make the changes at workplace to safe the workers from risk
incident reports should be informed quickly without any delay
accessing the risk
do risk assessment to know the potential risks
The severity of any injury or illness that could occur
risk assessment if any changes at workplace
visual inspection of the equipment, and workplace
control measures and reviewing the controls
when the control measure is not effective in controlling the risk
If the results of consultation indicate that a review is necessary
if the hazard is new at workplace
review the control measures if the safety organisation is asking for the further details
review the risk measure when control measure is not sufficient to stop the risk
controlling of the risk
using the PPE
use the safety shoes,
safety helmet
steel cap shoes and high hat
safety gloves where needed, safety glasses should be worn at workplace
permits or tickets
person should be legally authorized
valid height permits or tickets
government issued certificates
experienced worker to be hired, if possible give proper training to the new individuals
eliminate the possible risk by own judgement or risk assessment
Substituting an ordinary brick-cutting saw blade with a noise-reduced saw blade will minimise exposure to hazardous noise
Implementing engineering controls.
Eliminating the risk as per the hierarchical order eg; remove the heath and safety risk first if not possible to eliminate then minimize the risk
replace the more hazardous risk with less hazardous material or equipment
