11 WHAT IS RISK Risk is a combination of The LIKELIHOOD of the hazard causing harm And The CONSEQUENCES if it does so
12 HAZPAK RISK ASSESSMENT MODEL
13 HIERARCHY OF RISK CONTROL Eliminate the hazard or, if not reasonably practicable Control the risk Substitution Isolation Engineering controls Administrative controls Personal protective equipment.
14 ELIMINATION Options which get rid of the hazard altogether The best way to eliminate the risk is to completely remove the hazard. For example: The need for excessive photocopying and collation can be eliminated if material is circulated by . Repair damaged equipment promptly. Ensure new equipment meets the ergonomic needs of users. Move a noisy machine from a quiet area.
15 SUBSTITUTION Replacing a hazardous substance or work practice with a less hazardous one. For example; A telephone hand set can be replaced with a head set where there is constant use of the telephone. Substituting a smaller package or container to reduce the risk of manual handling injuries such as back strain. Substituting a hazardous chemical with a less dangerous one.
16 ENGINEERING CONTROLS The provision of mechanical aids, barriers, machine guarding, ventilation or insulation to isolate a hazard from employees. For example: Electrical cut out switches Roll over frames on vehicles Duress alarms or mechanical screens to separate workers from violent or physically aggressive clients Isolating copying equipment in soundproof and ventilated rooms Using anti-glare screens on computers VDUs Using trolleys or mechanical lifting aids Changing bench heights to reduce.
17 ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS Establishing policies, procedures and work practices designed to reduce a worker s exposure to a risk. It can also include the provision of specific training and supervision. For example: Providing alternative tasks for workers Increasing job variety and introducing job rotation Regularly maintaining plant and equipment Training and education to learn how to Identify and assess risk Use methods of control Know and apply the legislative requirements Safely use mechanical aids and equipment.
18 DUTY OF CARE Who has duty of care to make sure a workplace is safe? Campbell Page Your Supervisor Your Host Organisation Your co-workers Yourself. You are responsible for your own safety on a worksite If you see a hazard, it is your responsibility to notify your supervisor.
19 COMMON HAZARDS AND CONTROL MEASURES IN CONSTRUCTION WORK Manual Handling injury - Use safe lifting techniques, complete a manual handling risk assessment, lift as a team environment. Chemical exposure - Follow instructions on hazardous substances register for each chemical. Use personal protective equipment (gloves, breathing respirator, safety suits). Overuse injury while using hand tools - Take regular breaks, change work schedule regularly. Exposure to sun and weather -Use PPE (Hat, long-sleeve shirt, sunscreen). Take regular breaks, change work schedule to ensure indoor work available in heat of day.
20 COMMON HAZARDS AND CONTROL MEASURES IN LANDSCAPING WORK Exposure to sun and weather - Use PPE (hat, long-sleeve shirt, sunscreen). Take regular breaks, change work schedule to ensure indoor work available in heat of day. Spider / snake bite - Use PPE (gloves, steel-capped boots, long-pants). Awareness of area, first aid kit on-site. Qualified First Aid officer available. Mobile phone coverage for emergency calls. Sharps injury - Supervisor only to handle sharps. Sharps container and tongs available on-site. Manual handling injury - Use safe lifting techniques, complete a manual.
21 PERSONAL HYGIENE It is important that you treat your Activity placement like real work, so you should be properly dressed, and groomed for work. If you are sick, you should go to a doctor, get a doctor s certificate and notify your supervisor. While at the worksite: If you have to cough or sneeze, you should cover your mouth with a tissue, or cough into your elbow to stop the spread of germs. After going to the toilet, before eating or drinking food, or after smoking, you should always wash your hands.
22 MANUAL HANDLING Basics of Good Lifting: Trolleys, forklifts, hoists, dollies and other types of lifting equipment are used to lift heavy objects. However, sometimes it is necessary to load or unload moderate to heavy objects by hand. When that is the case, knowing the proper ways to lift can save you a great deal of pain and misery from a sprained back.
23 MANUAL HANDLING Assess the situation: Before lifting or carrying a heavy object, ask yourself the following questions: Can you lift this load safely, or is it a two-person lift? How far will you have to carry the load? Is the path clear of clutter, cords, slippery areas, overhangs, stairs, curbs or uneven surfaces? Will you encounter closed doors that need to be opened? Once the load is lifted, will it block your view? Can the load be broken down into smaller parts? Should you wear gloves to get a better grip and protect your hands?
24 MANUAL HANDLING Size up the load: Test the weight by lifting one of the corners. If it is too heavy or a awkward shape, stop. If there is any doubt, ask for help from fellow workers. Try to use a mechanical lift or a hand truck. Try to break the load down into smaller parts.
25 MANUAL HANDLING Use good lifting techniques: Bend your knees. Bending your knees is the single most important thing you can do when you lift moderate to heavy objects. Carrying the load: Change direction by turning your feet, not your back. Your nose and your toes should always be pointing in the same direction. Any sudden twisting can result in taking out your back. Rest if you fatigue. Set the load down and rest for a few minutes. Setting the load down: Bend your knees. Squat down and let your legs do the work. Keep the load close. Plan your release. Using trolleys and lifting aids: Push rather than pull. It is easier and safer to push than to pull. You can use your body weight to assist when pushing.
26 FIRST AID AND EMERGENCY First Aid Supplies are available at your site. If you require first aid treatment, you will need to see your Supervisor. If you or someone else are in an emergency situation: Call 000 immediately. Consider the victim first, but don t put yourself in danger. Your site will have an evacuation procedure, to find this out, talk to your supervisor.
27 REPORTING OF INCIDENTS Report any injuries, incidents and near-misses immediately to your supervisor. Your supervisor will inform us If you have been injured, ring Campbell Page as well so we can fill in an incident report. You are covered by Medicare for any costs possibly associated with injury. If you have costs incurred because of injury which are not covered by Medicare, this is then forwarded to the Department of Employments' insurance agency and will be investigated. You are not covered by Worker s compensation because you are not employed (yet).
28 WHAT IS BULLYING? Bullying happens when people repeatedly and intentionally use words or actions against someone or a group of people to cause distress and risk to their wellbeing. Bullying is not the same as conflict between people (like having a fight) or disliking someone, even though people might bully each other because of conflict or dislike. If you feel like you are being bullied, there is something you can do! Talk to your Supervisor Call Campbell Page we can help! You have a right to feel safe and to be treated fairly and respectfully.
29 WHAT IS SEXUAL HARRASSMENT? Sexual harassment is any unwanted or unwelcome sexual behaviour, which makes a person feel offended, humiliated or intimidated. It can take many different forms it can be obvious or indirect, physical or verbal, repeated or one-off and perpetrated by males and females against people of the same or opposite sex. Sexual harassment at work is against the law! It can be committed by an employer, workmate or other people in a working relationship with the victim Talk to your Supervisor Call Campbell Page we can help! You have a right to feel safe and to be treated fairly and respectfully
