Risk Assessment For Flushing

This risk assessment document identifies risks associated with flushing a chilled water pipeline. It lists two activities - working on a mobile scaffolding and using a ladder. For working on mobile scaffolding, the document identifies falls, falling objects, overloading and other hazards. It then lists control measures to reduce the risk level from medium to low. For using a ladder, it identifies falls from height and other hazards, and lists control measures like only using ladders in certain cases and maintaining contact points to also reduce the risk level from medium to low. Persons responsible for oversight are identified as the site engineer, supervisor and foreman.

RISK ASSESSMENT & CONTROL GUIDELINES

1. Executing Steps:
1.1. Planning
a) Construction and HSE team must ensure that hazard identification is complete.
b) Construction and HSE team must prioritize the hazard issues, which are of significant in nature. (It means that risks have well
established legal requirements, potentially high risks).
c) Construction and HSE team to prepare the risk assessment plan for the priorities identified hazards for these potential high
risks.

1.2. Risk Assessment


Risk is the probability of an event occurring in a given set of circumstances. The ‘event’ is an exposure to hazard. The hazard is the
potential to cause harm. The risk assessment is the technique of evaluating not just the likelihood of an event occurring, but also the
outcome will be in terms of injury, loss, damage or harm.
1.3. Risk Assessment Process
The process of carrying out a risk assessment should be as follows.
1. Identify the hazards.
2. Identify who might be harmed and how.
3. Evaluate the risk and implement the control measures.
4. Record the significant findings.
5. Review the assessment and update if necessary.

1.4. Examination of the Hazards and Risk Associated


 Competent staff must be used in examining the risk associated with the identified hazard.
 Competent staff should examine following aspect to determine the risk involved:
o Examine the existing control measures in place.
o Identify employees at risk.
o Likelihood of risk.
o Severity
o Risk level and their tolerability.

1.5. Evaluating the risk:


Once the necessary information has been obtained on the hazards encountered by work activities, next stage is to access the risks.
1.5.1. Risk Rating Score
Risk rating score is a combination of two factors.
 The severity of the risk that could injure persons or cause damage to plant.
 The likelihood of the risk that it could happen (Probability).

RISK RATING = LIKELIHOOD X SEVERITY


NOTE: Each activity has to be assessed for the risk value for determining the level of Severity and likelihood are mentioned in the table
below.
No Injury Minor Moderate Major
Catastrophic (5)
(1) Injury (2) Injury (3) Injury (4)
1 2 3 4 5
Rarely (1)
Unlikely (2) 2 4 6 8 10
LIKELIHOOD Possible (3) 3 6 9 12 15

Likely (4) 4 8 12 16 20
