Task instructions:Risk assessment is the overall process of risk identification, risk analysis and risk evaluation.In Assessment task 2 you identified the hazards/risks of four topic areas relating to; Manual Handling, Plant, Noise and Hazardous Substances.Your Task:]]]]]]]]]]]]Using the information you collected, researched and summarized in Assessment task 1, complete the following;Part A – Risk AnalysisRisk analysis is about developing an understanding of the risk. It is used to determine the likelihood of people being exposed to injury, illness or disease in the workplace arising from any situation identified during the hazard identification process.Key questions in analysing risk include:• What are the current controls that may prevent, detect or lower the consequences of potential or undesirable risks or events? Consider the Hierarchy of Hazard Control measures in your thinking.• What is the potential likelihood of the risks happening?• What are the potential consequences of the risks if they do occur?1. Produce a matrix / table depicting the likelihood and consequences for each of the hazards/risks you identified in AT2 for each of the four topics. For example: “While using a hammer you may strike one of your fingers”Likelihood = likely, (ie: will probably happen in most circumstances), Consequence = Negligible (ie: minor financial loss – no first aid required and is immediately able to work)2. Produce a table or spreadsheet that states the type of hazard/risk, list examples and ways of controlling the hazard /risk (policy/action/solution)(a) hazard type = equipment, example of hazard = faulty equipment, control measure = ensure all maintenance is undertaken on equipment and maintenance procedures are updated regularly.(b) hazard type = solar radiation, example of hazard = sunburn, control measure = have sunscreen and sun hats as part of your PPE.Part B – Risk EvaluationThe purpose of risk evaluation is to assist in making decisions, based on the outcomes of risk analysis, about which risks need treatment and the priority for treatment implementation. A Risk Register records the risks that have been identified, the severity of the risk, and the actions that need to be taken to minimise or eliminate the risk.3. Produce a word template, spreadsheet or database to record the following information;(ie: a proforma document a building company could use to report, record and evaluate hazards/risks)• date risk identified and the dates proposed action is to be completed• list of hazards, their type, location and people exposed• likelihood of occurrence• likely impact and severity• possible control measures and dates for implementation• range of possible scenarios or circumstances under which the hazards may cause injury or damage• people responsible for control measures• review and monitoring process• areas of improvement, action plan outlines / timeframes• any other relevant information.Some useful sites and resources to be used for this are as follows:OHS Act 2004Dangerous Goods Act OHS regulationsOHS Codes of PracticeInformation from www.worksafe.vic.gov.au and/or www.safeworkaustralia.gov.au
