 OBJECTIVE

To identify three (3) Safety Hazard and two (2) Health Hazards at the

workplace

To identify the risk for all hazards identified

To explain the implication of the most critical hazard (safety & health

hazard) that has been identified and their preventive measure

To discuss and give appropriate suggestions for control measures in order

to eliminate, reduce and minimize the risk of all the hazards identified
 METHODOLOGY
OBSERVATION

The observation is starting at 8.00 am- 5.00 pm.

At 8.00 am, assemble at the purple area

Carry out by the supervisor of the morning shift at the purple area
.

Guided by the SHO while observing the work area.

Observed the work process

Gathering data : watching behaviour, events, or activities done by the
workers.

All the information was jotted down by us and easy to refer back all the
information.

The hazard has been identified around the work area.

INTERVIEW

Carried out is between us and the company representative: Safety and

Health Officer (SHO)
The interview session was conducted when we are in the purple area
Obtained all information through the interview

The questions that have been asked are :

How many workers working?
How long their working hour?
What safety measures that already applied?
Is there any accident has been occurs before?

RISK DESCRIPTION ACTION

15 25 HIGH A HIGH risk requires immediate action to control
the hazard as detailed in the hierarchy of control.
Actions taken must be documented on the risk
assessment from including date for completion.

5 12 MEDIUM A MEDIUM risk requires a planned approach to

controlling the hazard and applies temporary
measure if required. Actions taken must be
documented on the risk assessment form including
date for completion.

14 LOW A risk identified as LOW may be considered as

acceptable and further reduction may not be
necessary. However, if the risk can be resolved
quickly and efficiently, control measure should be
implemented and recorded.

Lifting the heavy Falling of Broken leg PPE : Safety 3 2 6

boxes to the table heavy boots (MEDIUM)
beside conveyor. boxes.

Falling of heavy boxes is the most critical safety hazard

The effect of the hazard is greater impact than the others.
The risk value is 6 which is categorize as MEDIUM risk.
The likelihood is 3 which is conceivable,
The accident might be occur at some time in future.
There is no accident was reported happens.
The likelihood is determined based on the working hours and the number of workers
that involve.
The severity is 2, categorize as minor, it is because the effect from hazard can cause bone
fracture.
MOST CRITICAL SAFETY HAZARD RECOMMENDATION
CONTROL RECOMMENDATION
MEASURE
Elimination Elimination is not applicable because it is impossible that to
eliminate all the production equipment since all the material is
needed to operating production of the lubricants oil.
Substitute Substitute manual handling to robotic machine. This can
reduce the possibility of accident occurrence towards the
workers.
Isolation Isolation is not applicable because it is impossible to isolate the
workers to the production equipment.

Engineering Install a robotic machine to replaced manual handling by the

workers.
Administrative Administrative control is not applicable because the hazard
cannot be reduced by changing the work procedure.

PPE PPE is not applicable since the workers already wear the safety
boots during the working hours.

Exposed to excessive heat is the most critical health hazard

The risk value is 6 which is categorize as MEDIUM risk
The likelihood is 3 based on likelihood table which is under category
conceivable
It has a good chance of occurring and is not unusual
There is no accident happens,
It was determine based on the number of workers involve and the working
hours.
The severity is 2 under category minor, the severity is disabling but not
permanent such as headache.
Headache is effect of short term exposure to the excessive heat.
MOST CRITICAL HEALTH HAZARD RECOMMENDATION
CONTROL RECOMMENDATION
MEASURE
Elimination Elimination is not applicable because it is impossible that to
eliminate the production machine.

Substitute Substitute is not applicable because there is no suitable

machine that can be substitute.
Isolation Isolation is no applicable due to the production machine is need
to operate by the workers.
Engineering Engineering control in not applicable because there is no
suitable engineering control that can be install.
Administrative The management should provide more fan to reduce excessive
heat exposed by the workers.
The management should provide water cooler to each of work
area so that can reduced the body temperature of the workers.
PPE PPE is not applicable due to not suitable to reduced excessive
heat at low level of exposure.
 CONCLUSION
CONCUL

The risk of hazard is determined based on DOSH HIRARC guideline.

The most critical safety hazard is falling of heavy boxes

Recommendation : Substitute the manual handling to a robotic
machine.

The most critical health hazard is exposed to excessive heat

Recommendation : Provide more fan and provide water cooler at
each work area.

Benefit to the employer :

Gives organizations a more effective way of managing hazard occur at
workplace.

Benefit to the employee :

Feel more secure and encourage to do their work task with more
efficient.
