  • Most probable result of the potential accident. <br> <br><br><br><br><br>

  • CLASSIFICATION1. FACTOR

1. CONSEQUENCE

Most probable result of the potential accident.

  • a. Catastrophe; numerous fatalities; major disruption of activities 100

  • b. Disaster; multiple fatalities; 50

  • c. Very serious; Fatality; 25

  • d. Serious; serious injury (amputation, permanent disability) 15

  • e. Important; disabling injury; 5

  • f. Noticeable; minor cuts, bruises, bumps; minor damage. 1

2. EXPOSURE

The frequency of exposure to the hazard.

  • a. Continuously (or many times daily) 10

  • b. Frequently (approximately once daily). 6

  • c. Occasionally (from once per week to once per month) 3

  • d. Infrequent (from once per month to once per year). 2

  • e. Rarely (it has been known to occur) 1

  • f. Very rarely (not known to have occurred) 0.5

3. PROBABILITY

Likelihood that the consequence will occur once the individual is exposed to the hazard.

  • a. Almost certain likely or expected result; 1 in 10 chance. 10

  • b. Quite possible/not unusual; 1 in 10 to 1 in 100 chance 6

  • c. Would be an unusual sequence or coincidence; 1 in 100 to 1 in 1000 chance 3

  • d. Would be a remotely possible coincidence 1 in 1000 to 1 in 10,000 chance. 1

  • e. Has never happened after many years of exposure, but is conceivably possible; 1 in 10 000 to 1 in 100,0000 0.5

  • f. Practically impossible sequence (has never happened) 1 in 100,000 chance or lower 0.1

Risk Score: CONSEQUENCE X EXPOSURE X PROBABILITY. = RISK SCORE

RISK SCORE DEFINITION ACTION

  • 500 Very high risk Immediate action required. HIGH PRIORITY.

  • 300- 499 High risk Management attention needed. Hazards NOT adequately controlled.

  • 150- 299 Substantial risk Management attention needed. Hazards NOT adequately controlled.

  • 60- 149 Moderate risk Hazard must be examined against current standards

  • 0- 59 Low risk Manage by routine procedures.

Hierarchy of Risk Controls

1. Eliminate

  • - Is it possible to eliminate the risk?

2. Reduce

  • - Is it possible to reduce the level of risk posed by the hazard by (priority order.

  • · Substitution (using less hazardous alternatives)

  • · Isolation (separating the operator from the risk)

  • · Engineering controls (re-designing plant or equipment).

3. Administration

  • - Is it possible to reduce the level of risk posed by the hazard by changing operating procedures, training, supervision, providing information etc

4. Personal Protection

  • - Is it possible to reduce the level or risk posed by the hazard by wearing personal protective equipment and clothing?
