Basic Safety Procedures in High Risk Activities and

This document outlines basic safety procedures for high-risk activities and industries. It discusses three key steps: hazard identification to find risks, risk assessment to determine the impact of hazards, and risk control to reduce risks. Specific procedures are provided for authorized workers to follow, including reviewing work areas, identifying energy sources, evaluating tasks for hazards, and using methods like observations and interviews to identify workplace hazards. The goal is to systematically recognize and address risks to promote safety.

Safety Procedures in High Risk Activities

Hazard Identification The first step in Safety Risk Management is to identify


hazards that the organization faces in its operational environment.

Risk Assessment - Each identified hazard undergoes a risk assessment to


determine its potential consequences.

Risk Control - Risk control is a technique that utilizes findings from risk
assessments and implementing changes to reduce risk in these areas.

1. Responsible manager or supervisor or


equipment custodian

Assigns an authorized worker to


conduct a hazard analysis. The
worker must be a competent
person familiar with the equipment
and work scope.

2. Authorized worker

Reviews the scope of work and


affected machine, equipment, or
system

3.

Work areas must be kept clean and


free of obstructions.

Access to emergency equipment or


exits must never be blocked.

Equipment and chemicals must be


stored properly.

4. Authorized Worker

Identifies all energy sources


(electrical, mechanical, thermal,
potential, pneumatic, hydraulic,
chemical, and radiological, et
cetera)

5.Authorized Worker

Determines if any energy sources are


hazardous

If the value of the hazardous energy


falls in the Evaluate Hazard and
Consider Lockout column, lockout
should be used if the authorized
worker determines that lockout is
warranted based on an evaluation of
all hazards, including secondary
hazards and combined hazards,
associated with the work scope and
equipment or system conditions;
otherwise lockout is not required.

If the value falls in the Lockout


Required column, lockout is required.

For energy types without an explicit


value, consults additional applicable
resources to make a determination
(such as information in this document
and relevant ESH Manual chapters, and
the control of hazardous energy
(CoHE) program manager, responsible
directorate ESH coordinator, safety
officer, and subject matter experts

6.

Wastes must be placed in


appropriate, labeled containers.

7. Authorized Worker

Evaluates each task including


setup, installation, removal,
adjusting, cleaning,
troubleshooting, and programming
to analyze for hazards

8. Authorized worker in consultation with


building or area manager, if necessary

Evaluates the work environment


for potentially hazardous
combinations

9. Authorized worker

There are four basic steps in


conducting a task hazard analysis:
1. Selecting the Task to be Analyzed
2. Breaking the Task into Steps
3. Identifying Potential Hazards
4. Determining Preventative Measures

There are five method you can use to


identify workplace hazards:

informal observation and formal


observation programs

comprehensive company widesurveys

individual interviews

walk-around inspections and,

documentation review
