External source of information (HSE notes, ILO websites):
Before visiting at site I collect information from different HSE notes and also search different
websites and read out ILO conventions and articles.( https://www.ilo.org/global/topics/safety-and-

Wortkers already have personal protective equipments including safety helmet, safety shoes, safety
goggles and earplugs but these are not enough to control hazard of the site so,
Resultantly I decided that previous control measures are not enough to control hazards and risk so, I
suggest a new one risk assessment.

Moral, general legal and financial arguments for all actions: 300 to 350 words
For EACH action:
Specific legal arguments: 100 to 150 words
Likelihood AND severity: 75 to 150 words
How effective the action is likely to be in controlling the risk: 100 to 150 words
Moral, general legal and financial arguments for ALL actions
Moral, general legal and financial Moral argument:
arguments Moral point of view, company is responsible to provider health atmosphere and safe work place to worker.
Worker work for their families and other dependent if worker injured its means their family injured by
financially. Those companies cannot survive which not follow the safety policies and safety rules and
regulations such type of company’s loss their reputation in society and filed. Worker feed uncomforted to work
with them and company face dark day
General, legal argument:
According to national and international standard company is responsible to provider health and safety to
worker and follow legislation rules and regulation company should provide safe and relatable working plate
form to worker.
ILO C155 also bound to companies for safety culture. If company cannot follow the safety rules then may it
face difficulties in form of financial loss’ worker loss’ equipment loss’ reputation damage.
Financial argument:
Accident create different difficulties for company especially loss of finance due to loss of worker’ hire new
worker ‘ loss of property ‘ machinery loss ‘ charger for maintenance of damage equipment ‘ pay for treatment
of injury worker ‘ in the result of catastrophic accident’ company may banned by court.
Justification for action 1
Action (Taken from column 4 of risk Hazard Category: Fire(1)
assessment) 1. Flammable material should store is separate room and maintain safe distance.
Learner number: Learner name: Page 12 of 17
Specific legal arguments The International Labor Organization (ILO) convention 167 occupational safety and health article (29)
state that :
“ it is Employer responsibility to provide proper safe separate room for storing flammable liquid at site .”
Under the International Labor Organization (ILO) code of practice R 164:
Workers safety is first priority of any organization, so organization should provide safe zone from fire
explosions.
PAKISTAN OHS Act,2018 States that:
The Government of Pakistan is responsible for, implementation and enforcement of all the relevant
conventions and the recommendation of the International Labour Organization (ILO).
Consideration of likelihood AND severity The likelihood of the hazard is very likely since 11 workers are performing the welding activity for
7 hours at regular basses in the presence of flammable material. They can injured including
types of injury or ill health serious burns, loss of body parts, full body burn and may result in death.
number of workers at risk
how often the activity is carried For suggesting severity I will consider the following:
out Low: No injury or damage happened.
how widespread the risk is
High: May cause the minor injury demanding first aid or insignificant damage of building and
equipment.
Major: Tissue burn, Body burn fatal injuries demanding hospital treatment damage of building and
equipment.
Catastrophic: Disability, Death, loss of property, equipment and machinery.
The severity of this hazard is set from the above table is Major and Catastrophic, because the
injury may need hospital treatment and might lead to death.
The risk is at workplace only and all workers are involved in other activity near the welding
activity are also exposed to this risk.
How effective the action is likely to be in
controlling the risk. This should include:
The intended impact such as by constructing separate room for flammable material the
risk of fire will be reduced. This will make safe and secure work place for workers.
the intended impact of the action;
I suggest the timescale of 3 months to construct the room. As first of all, Budget must be
approved by finance manager for the construction after that arrangement of the

whether you think the action will The risk almost will controlled by constructing separate room for flammable material and
fully control the risk workers can perform their expertise freely at site.
Justification for action 2
Action (Taken from column 4 of risk Hazard category: Work at height
assessment) 9. midd and top rail of scaffolding should be installed
Specific legal arguments The International Labor Organization (ILO) convention 167 occupational safety and health
article (18) states that “according to the necessity should provide guard against falling hazard, or
if height of a structure or its slope exceeds that described by national laws or regulations,
preventive measures should be taken for the safety of workers and tools or other objects or
materials”
Under the International Labor Organization (ILO) code of practice article (8.1.1) states that
provide suitable platform to workers for work at site which is must be inspected.
PAKISTAN OHS Act,2018 States that:
The Government of Pakistan is obliged for this implementation of all the related conventions and
the recommendation of the International Labour Organization (ILO).
Consideration of likelihood AND severity The likelihood of getting injuries is very likely since 21 workers are working on the
types of injury or ill health scaffolding without proper railing for 5 to 6 hours which may lead to workers falling from
height injured including head injuries, muscles damaging, bone fractures, body parts

how often the activity is carried
out By considering the severity, I set the following group for it.
how widespread the risk is Negligible or minor: No injury or near miss incidents.
Learner number: Learner name: Page 14 of 17
Marginal: Minor injuries demanding first aid and less damage of property and equipment.
Major: injuries demanding the hospital treatment and significant damage of property and
equipment.
Catastrophic: head injury, spinal injury, disability, death and loss of property, equipment
or machinery.
The severity for this hazard is set from the above table to be Major and Catastrophic,
because the injury will need hospital treatment and lead to disability which could also lead
to death.
The risk is covered the whole scaffolding platform and the workers working near the
scaffolding and visitor’s even supervisors are also directly exposed to this risk.
How effective the action is likely to be in
controlling the risk. This should include:
The inteSnded impact such as by installing the guard rail, mid rail and toe board on the
scaffolding, it will provide safe workplace and safe platform to workers. All the activities will
the intended impact of the action; be done with in safe and secure manners.
justification for the timescale that
you indicated in your risk I suggested 3 weeks for installing the guard rails on the scaffolding. Because initial
assessment; and inspection will be completed with in a day then site manager will provide material to folder
whether you think the action will they will install, so for whole process will be done in three weeks
fully control the risk The risk will reduced. And workers can perform work easily safely and proper supervision
also necessary.
Justification for action 3
Action (Taken from column 4 of risk Hazard category: electricity(1)
assessment) Residual current device (RCD) should introduce at side.
Specific legal arguments International Labor Organization (ILO) Convention 167 occupational safety article 27.
Electrical cables and apparatus should be in good condition and must follow national level standards at site.
Learner number: Learner name: Page 15 of 17
International labor organization (ILO) convention 167 and article 28.
Hazardous substance should be reduce with one of less hazardous substance for providing rilaiable safe
working platform to workers at site.
PAKISTAN OHS Act,2018 States that:
The Government of Pakistan is obliged for this ratification, implementation and enforcement of all
the relevant conventions and the recommendation of the International Labour Organization (ILO).
Consideration of likelihood AND severity The likelihood of this hazard is very likely because there are 42 workers who are perform
types of injury or ill health different activities near the cables and circuits. They can face burn injuries, electric shock,
and even death in the result of that type hazards.
number of workers at risk
how often the activity is carried Workers who are at risk including supervisors and visitors are 42 in danger
out
For considering the severity, I set the following table for it.
how widespread the risk is
low: No injury or near miss incidents
high: injuries demanding first aid treatment or minor damage to building, equipment or
machinery
Major: injury which lead to hospital for treatment or significant damage to building,
equipment or machinery.
Catastrophic: whole site workers can damaged and burn by electric shock and even
death, building can destroy and machineries damaged.
The severity for this hazard is set from the above is high and Catastrophic, because the
body burning would need the hospital treatment and also death can be occurred.
The risk is confined to the whole working area as the cables are present in the entire
workplace and all workers and some visitors are directly exposed to the risk.
Learner number: Learner name: Page 16 of 17
How effective the action is likely to be in
controlling the risk. This should include:
The intended impact such as by installing residual current devices at workplace, this would
help to avoid the electric shock at site and providing healthy environment to the workers for
the intended impact of the action; wok.
justification for the timescale that
you indicated in your risk The suggested timescale is 3 month since first of all the finance manager will arrange
assessment; and budget for the residual current device purchasing after that it will be installed at site . I hope
whether you think the action will the suggested timescale is enough for the required task to be completed
fully control the risk By applying this control measures electricity hazard will be reduce significantly.
Part 4: Review, communicate and check
Suggested word counts for each section:
Planned review date or period and reasoning for this: 50 - 100 words
How the risk assessment findings will be communicated and who needs to know the information: 100 - 150 words
Follow up on the risk assessment: 100 - 150 words.
Planned review date/period with This risk assessment will be review after a year, Feb -09-2024. The reason of revision is that its
reasoning company policy that every risk assessment will be revised after a year.
It will also review, if company policies change, man power increased, new technology introduced,
legislation change, accident occurred, and even the nature of job can.
How the risk assessment findings will be When all the process will be completed, I will conduct a meeting with project manager and share all
communicated AND who you need to tell the points of risk assessment with them, then I will meet to directors and site managers of company
for sharing and discussing of risk assessment.at the end I will conduct a tool box talk in front of
workers and their representatives about risk assessment, I will show all hazards of risk assessment
at company notice board
How you will follow up on the risk I will write dairy for reminder in which I will mention all details about risk assessment and visit time
assessment to check that the actions periods. i will actively visit the site (before mentioned visit time) if I am not avail for visit then I will
have been carried out require photographs as proof from responsible person. If something went wrong in the form of
delaying control measures, due to finance, I will directly convinced and concerns to finance
manager for budget approval and also will concern to management for problem sort out soon as
possible.
