Risk Assessment
Evaluate the risks and prioritize them based on their severity and likelihood.
JOB SAFETY ANALYSIS
Objectives
- We need to count on a practical methodology for identifying hazards and evaluating occupational risks that involve the diverse labor activities of our organization.
- To promote the use of simple tools for the evaluation of risks between the workers.
- To know the occupational hazards and risks, each one of the tasks must be applied with suitable preventive measures.
Procedure
Selection of the work
- To analyze Initially, the work that is desired to be evaluated will be chosen.
Data collection
- One will gain information about the equipment, tools, materials, and other elements to use, the conditions of the work surroundings, and the technical characteristics of the workings to make, among others.
Control Measures
Implement measures to eliminate or reduce risks.
Lone Working
Garage employees will be required to work from time to time when the premises are otherwise closed for business and no other member of staff is present on site.
In such circumstances, Company management insists that:
- The tasks required to be done are entirely capable of being undertaken safely by one man and are not excessively arduous.
- The employee is in good health and is agreeable to the work.
Under no circumstances must an employee work on their own without reference to and the approval of the Supervisor. Employees should also comply with the Safe System of Work issued.
Yard Safety
We have a spacious and well-lit yard which should adequately and safely accommodate all the vehicle traffic which needs to be used. To ensure that the yard is used as safely as possible.
All employees are asked to:
- Obey the 10-mph speed limit – this reduces to ‘dead slow’ when driving (or reversing) into and out of the workshop.
- Take great care when crossing any part of the yard.
- Park their own vehicle safely in the spaces allocated.
Drivers are asked to:
- Drive according to the Company’s Moving Vehicles Safe System of Work.
- Apply checks and otherwise maneuver safely in accordance with the Company’s Moving Vehicles Safe System of Work.
- Ask permission before moving a vehicle into or out of the workshop.
- Take particular care when washing vehicles (i.e., wear Hi-Viz, be aware of other vehicle movement and the yard surface)
- Take particular care when fueling vehicles to ensure that they remain clear of other vehicular traffic moving around the yard.
Fitters are asked to:
- Apply checks, use their horn, etc., or otherwise maneuver safely into and out of the workshop.
- Take particular care when fueling vehicles.
- Take particular care when steam washing vehicles.
If any employee has any difficulties or queries relating to driving procedures in the yard, they should refer the matter to Top Management.
