Risk Management framework SDIS
-
The purpose of this Plant Risk Assessment is to determine if uncontrolled hazards exist to the specified equipment which could lead to death or severe, debilitating injuries.
-
Each hazard identified will be assigned a probability and severity ranking which will subsequently be used to determine the overall risk of the hazard. Additionally, an overall risk ranking will be assigned to the machine using the rankings given to each individual hazard.
1. Mechanical Hazards
-
Mechanical Hazard is a general designation for all physical factors that can give rise to injury resulting from the mechanical action of a machine, machine parts, tools, workplaces and other objects or from projected solid or fluid materials.
1.1 Entanglement
-
Entanglement - Entanglement occurs as a result of bodily contact with one of the following: A single rotating surface, projections or gaps, counter-rotating parts, rotating and tangentially moving parts, rotating and moving parts, rotating and fixed parts and material in motion.
-
1.1 Do entanglement hazards exist which could cause or contribute to severe injuries or death?
-
Likelihood
-
Severity
-
Score from risk matrix for entanglement hazards.
1.2 Friction and Abrasion
-
Friction and Abrasion occurs as the result of bodily contact with relatively smooth parts/equipment moving at high speeds (e.g. Coil surface travelling at at excessive speeds) or abrasive hazards (e.g. abrasion wheels or belt sanders)
-
1.2 Friction and Abrasion - Do Friction and Abrasion hazards exist which could cause or contribute to severe injuries or death?

2.0 Slipping, Tripping and Falling
-
Because of their mechanical nature, hazards resulting from slipping, tripping and falling in relationship with equipment and machinery should also be considered, as well as access, egress and working surfaces (e.g. stairs, ladders and platforms)

3.0 Electrical Hazards
-
Electrical hazards can cause injury or death from explosion, electrical shock or burns. These can be caused by bodily contact with live parts and parts that have become live under fault conditions. Additional causes include approach of persons to live parts, insulation not adequate for conditions and electrostatic phenomena.
