3. INTRODUCTION
HAZARDS means an activity, arrangement,
circumstances, event, process, situation and
substance (whether arising or caused within or
outside a place of work) that is actual or potential
cause or source of harm.

4. WHY MANAGEMENT OF HAZARDS?
HAZARDS MANAGEMENT is a essential problem-
solving process (to identify hazards), gather
information about them (assessing the risks) and
solving them (controlling the hazards).

5. Some of the most common health risks associated with
workplace hazards includes;
Skin irritation
Breathing problems.
Hearing damage.
Damage to muscles, bones and joints.
Reduced wellbeing.
Disasters and conflicts.

6. THE MOST COMMON WORKPLACE HAZARDS
There are many types of workplace hazards, which tend to
come under four main categories,
• Physical hazards- the most common hazards includes
vibration, noise, slips, trips and falls.
• Chemical hazards- any hazardous substances it can causes
the harm to employees health.
• Biological hazards- bacteria and viruses that cause health
effects, such as hepatitis, AIDS and legionnaire’s disease.
• Ergonomic hazards- physical factors that harms the
musculoskeletal system, such as repetitive movement,
manual handling and poor body positioning.

7. HOW TO PREVENT WORKPLACE HAZARDS
• The best way to protect yourself and your employees from workplace hazards
is to identify and manage them and take reasonable steps to prevent their
potential to harm.
• In order to control workplace hazards and eliminate or reduce the risk, you
should take the following steps,
• Identify the hazard by carrying out a workplace risk assessment.
• Determine how employees might be a risk.
• Evaluate the risks.
• Records and review hazards at least annually, or earlier if something changes.

11. IDENTIFICATION OF HAZARDS
• This is the fundamental step in the hazard management.
Some ways of identifying hazards:
• Workplace inspection.
• Incident reporting.
• Register of injuries.
• Consultation with employees.
• Feedback from the employees.

12. RISK ASSESMENT
• When you have identified the hazards.
• Need to assess the risk created by each hazard.
• The risk is the likelihood that the hazard will cause injury, illness or decrease in the way that the hazard
will cause injury, illness, or diseases in the way that it is used or occurs in the workplace and severity of
the injury, illness or diseases that may results.

14. HAZARD CONTROL / RISK MANAGEMENT
• It is enough to just find and rate the hazards.
• After finding the hazards it is important to eliminate or control the hazard before the injury or illness of
the people due to hazard.
• When a risk or hazard is identified. It must be assessed for control through the elimination and
minimization.

15. PPE – PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT.
• PPE CONTROL:
• Types of PPE
Head protection:
 Classes of hard hats
 CLASS G (general)
 CLASS E (electrical)
 CLASS C (conductive)
 Safety glasses.
 Safety goggles.
 Face shield.
 Welding face shield.

16. EYE AND FACE PROTECTION
Safety glasses Safety goggles Face shield
Welding face shield

17. Respiratory protection:
• Types of respirators.
• Air – Purifying (APR)
Remove contaminants from the air.
Particulate respirators
Chemical cartridge / gas mask respirator.
Powered air-purifying respirator (PAPR).

18. Atmosphere – supplying
Provides clean, breathable air.
 Self – contained breathing apparatus (SCBA).
 Supplied – air respirator (SAR).

19. Hearing protection:
Examples of hearing protection.
• Disposable foam plugs.
• Molded ear plugs.
• Noise – cancelling ear plugs.
• Ear muffs.

20. HAND PROTECTION:
ANTI-VIBRATION CHEMICAL-RESISTANCT
LEATHER PALM
PERMEATION-RESISTANT HEAT-RESISTANT CUT-RESISTANT

21. BODY PROTECTION – PROTECTIVE CLOTHING
• Provide protective clothing for those parts of the body exposed to possible
injuries.
• Types of body protection,
• Laboratory coats.
• Coveralls.
• Vests.
• Jackets.
• Aprons.
• Surgical gowns.
• Full-body suits.

23. ELIMINATION
• The risk or hazard is removed from the workplace.
• A hazardous substance that is no longer required.
• The risk or hazard is removed, it must be recorded in the register.
• If you are substituting a risk or hazard with another substance or process.
• Be sure to complete the risk and hazard identification for the new process or
substance.
• Record the decision in the register.

24. MINIMIZATION
• Where elimination is impracticable.
• Minimize the risk or hazard through appropriate controls.
• Such as PPE, work organisation factors, etc,
This means that the risk or hazard still exists but exposure to the hazard
is controlled to manage the risk.

25. RISK CONTROL
• Risk control is also called as hazard control.
• It is a part of hazard management.
• It can be define as the methods for neutralizing or reduction of identified hazards are implemented.
• Risk or hazard is managed by minimization.

27. EVALUATE, MONITOR AND REVIEW
• It is important to know if your risk assessment was complete and accurate.
• It’s a requirement to monitor workers exposure to risk or hazard.
• Monitoring the risk or hazard ensures the control is effective.
• It is also essential to be sure that changes in the workplace have not introduced new hazards or changed
hazards that were once ranked as lower priority to higher priority.

28. RISK / HAZARD MONITORING
• To ensures / monitoring the control is effective.
 Noise levels.
 Lighting.
 Air contaminants.
 Chemicals.
 Radiation.
 Air quality.
 Biohazards.
 Air temperature.
 Vibrations.

29. KEEP RECORDS
• Keep records of your assessment and any control actions taken is very
important. You may be required to store assessment for specific number of
years.
• Check for local requirements in your jurisdiction.
• The level of documentation or record.
• Keeping will depends on:
• Level of risk involved.
• Legislated requirements.
• Requirements of any management systems that may be in place.

30. YOUR RECORDS SHOULD SHOW THAT YOU
• Conducted a good hazard review.
• Determined the risks of those hazards.
• Implemented control measures suitable for the risk.
• Reviewed and monitored all hazards in the workplace.

31. CONCLUSION
• Hazard management is the process which improves worker safety by providing measures to reduces the
fatalities and injuries to workers in the field of transportation construction and maintenance tasks etc.
• By help of these procedures or steps we can easily identify hazards and control the risk of harm.
