3. OBJECTIVES:
1. DEFINE HAZARDS AND RISKS.
2. IDENTIFY COMMON OR TYPES OF
HAZARDS AND RISKS.
3. FOLLOW/GIVE STRATEGIES TO
MITIGATE OR MANAGE HAZARDS AND
RISKS.

4. ACTIVITY 1: SAFETY STARTS WITH US!
Direction: Watch the video thoroughly.
Questions:
1. What is the video all about?
2. If you were the repairman, what would you do?
3. If you were the man who is sick, would you still go to
work? Why or why not?
4. Based on the video, how can we avoid or prevent any
risk or accident at work/school?

6. Based on the pictures, how do we define hazard and
risk?

7. HAZARD AND RISK
•1. HAZARD IS ANYTHING THAT MAY CAUSE HARM TO AN
INDIVIDUAL, SUCH AS CHEMICALS, ELECTRICITY, OPEN
DRAWERS, AND INADEQUATE VENTILATION.
•2. RISK IS THE POSSIBILITY THAT SOMEBODY COULD BE
HARMED BY THESE AND OTHER HAZARDS AND THE
INDICATION OF HOW SERIOUS THE HARM CAN BE.

8. TYPES OF HAZARD
PHYSICAL HAZARD
BIOLOGICAL HAZARD
PSYCHOLOGICAL HAZARD
ERGONOMIC HAZARD
CHEMICAL HAZARD

9. PHYSICAL HAZARD AND RISK
Physical hazards refer to dangers that can cause harm to
the body through direct contact or exposure.
Here are some examples:

10. POSSIBLE
PHYSICAL RISKS
•FALLS
•TRIPS
•SLIP
HOW TO
PREVENT/AVOID
Maintaining clean and
organized work areas
and using appropriate
footwear can help
prevent accidents.

11. BIOLOGICAL HAZARD AND RISK
•BIOLOGICAL HAZARDS IN CAREGIVING REFER TO RISKS
ARISING FROM EXPOSURE TO SUCH AS BACTERIA AND
VIRUSES.
• HERE ARE SOME EXAMPLES:
CONTACT WITH INFECTIOUS DISEASES
HANDLING OF MEDICAL WASTE
CONTACT WITH CONTAMINATED SURFACES

12. POSSIBLE
BIOLOGICAL RISKS
INFECTIONS
SKIN IRRITATIONS
ALLERGY
TUBERCULOSIS
AIDS
HOW TO
PREVENT/AVOID

proper procedures for
segregation,containment,
and disposal of medical
waste to prevent
contamination

13. ERGONOMIC HAZARD AND RISK
in caregiving relate to factors in the

Standing for long periods of time

14. POSSIBLE
ERGONOMIC RISKS
PAIN IN THE SHOULDERS
BACK INJURY
TOO MUCH IMPACT ON WRIST AND HANDS
NUMBNESS IN SOME PARTS OF THE BODY
MUSCLE CRAMPS
HOW TO
PREVENT/AVOID
Implementing strategies such as
providing training on proper lifting
techniques, optimizing workspace
design, ensuring adequate staffing
levels, and promoting regular breaks
and rotation of tasks to reduce the
risk of physical injuries and promote
overall well-being for caregivers.

16. POSSIBLE
CHEMICAL RISKS
•LUNG DISEASES

•ALLERGY
HOW TO PREVENT/AVOID
Caregivers should receive training
on the safe handling and disposal
of chemicals, use appropriate PPE,
ensure proper ventilation in work
areas, and follow established
