This document defines workplace hazards and provides information on identifying, assessing, and controlling hazards. It discusses the main categories of hazards as safety, health, and environmental. Hazards can be natural, man-made, technological, structural, behavioral, or specific physical, mechanical, chemical, or biological hazards. The key steps for controlling hazards are identification, assessment and evaluation, implementation of controls, and ongoing monitoring and review. Controls include elimination, substitution, isolation, engineering controls, administrative controls, and personal protective equipment. The overall goal is to implement a safety management system to reduce risk and prevent harm from any hazards.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

2. DEFINITIONS OF HAZARDS
• Anything or condition with the potential to cause
harm
• The potential of a substance, person, activity or
process to cause harm (injury or illness)
• Anything (material/substance, machine, methods or
matters) in the workplace that has the potential to
cause harm
3. CATEGORIES OF HAZARD
• Safety – anything or condition that can cause
physical injury
• Health – any infective agent, substance
situation or condition that directly attacks the
body tissues causing occupational illness
• Environment – any pollution, waste including
noise in any form or quantity that impairs the
quality of the working environment, such as
dust, smoke, gases, radioactivity and odors
4. TWO MAIN CLASSES
• Natural – (geological) a threat of a naturally occurring
event that will have a negative effect on people or the
environment. (flood, lightening, wildfires, earthquake, soil
erosion, high winds, hurricanes, volcanic eruption, sink holes,
tsunami, drought, famine, heat waves, climate change
• Manmade - (sociological) threats having an element of
human intent, negligence, or error; or involving a failure of a
human-made system. It results in huge loss of life and
property. It further affects a person's mental, physical and
social well-being. (fire, flood, crime, arson, civil disorder,
terrorism, war)
5. OTHER CLASSES OF HAZARD
Technology –
A hazard originating from technological or industrial
conditions, including accidents, dangerous procedures,
infrastructure failures or specific human activities, that may
cause loss of life, injury, illness or other health impacts,
property damage, loss of livelihoods and services, social and
economic disruption, or environmental damage.
Structural collapse - Communication fallouts - Transportation
Electrical fallouts (explosions and outages) - Nuclear fallouts
CBRN warfare (chemical, biological, radiation and nuclear),
are threat of terror against a nation (mass destruction) -
Industrial Pollution - Fires
6. OTHER CLASSES OF HAZARD
• Behavioral –This is a reaction by a person
subjected to specific conditions of work and
materials which result in physical harm (health
and injury). How people behave at work can
create hazardous conditions.
• Irresponsible behaviour (horseplay, pranks, etc,)
• Leaving objects in pathways that causes obstruction and
tripping
• Running and rushing to different points about the
workplace
• Using hazardous substances dangerously and carelessly
7. Specifics of hazards
• Physical – doors, stairs, platforms, ladders, fire,
falling objects, manual handling, noise, vibration,
temperature, radiation, lighting, air quality.
• Mechanical – electricity, machinery, equipment,
pressure vessels, dangerous goods, forklifts, cranes
• Chemical – chemical substances, liquids, cleaning
agents, dust and fumes from processes, acids,
poisons, dangerous substances
9. MANAGEMENT OF HAZARDS
All aspects of the workplace should be
covered by a general risk assessment process
that will reveal the significant hazards present
and the control measures in place
Risk is:
“The likelihood of a substance, person, activity or
process to cause harm (injury or illness)”
Risk can be reduced, hazards are controlled by good management.
10. HAZARD REDUCTION STEPS
1. IDENTIFICATION
Look for the hazard
2. ASSESSMENT and EVALUATION
Decide who might be harmed, how and to what extent
3. CONTROLS
Decide whether the existing precautions are adequate or more should be
done
5. MONITORING and REVIEWING
Periodic checking for continuous improvement
11. IDENTIFICATION OF HAZARDS
Information Sources
employees, unsafe acts, unsafe conditions,
operators, investors, stake holders, suppliers, guides,
MSDS, warnings, safety professionals, legislation,
unions, training, discussions, complaints, interviews,
inspections, accident/incident reports, investigations,
quality control, process observation, house keeping
observation, finish product, equipment manuals,
magazines, reading, feedbacks, surveys, audits,
records, common and natural senses, past
experience, good judgment, etc,.
12. ASSESS AND EVALUATE THE HAZARDS
“consider its severity(consequences) probability and exposure”
Once identified, determine how harmful the hazard
can be;
• The likelihood to cause harm
• Under what conditions it can occur?
• What type of harm can occur?
• Who or how many workers can be harmed?
• What may be the extent of the harm or injury?
• Is there a history of problem, accidents or dangerous
occurrence from the hazard?
• What monitoring is needed to evaluate the risk?
13. HAZARD ELIMINATION AND CONTROLS
At the source The Worker
Along the path
Barriers Automated or remote controls
1. Elimination Absorption Rotation or Rescheduling
2. Substitution Dilution Personal Protective Equipment
3. Redesign Guards
4. Isolation Screens
5. Automation Exhaust systems
14. ENGINEERING CONTROLS
“Removing the hazard prom the worker”
Designing the workplace and process, also
ensure professional installation of machine
and equipment.
(isolation, lockouts, design, monitoring and warning
equipment, process and procedural changes)
• Knowledge
• Maintenance
• Plant and equipment
15. ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS
“Removing the worker from the hazard”
• Accident/Incident reporting procedures
• Effective safety policy
• Develop rules, standards and safe systems of work
• Performance measurement
• Training and education
• Good communication
• Use of job safety analysis
• Housekeeping and maintenance
• Monitor performance and follow-up short comings
• Quality assurance and safety
• Purchasing
16. Personal Protective Equipment
“Protecting the worker from the hazard”
• Insulate the worker.
• Use only when all options are exhausted, and the hazard cannot be
corrected through substitution or design.
Selection:
1. Where there is no immediate way to control the hazard by more
effective means.
2. When employed as a temporary measure, while more effective
solutions are being installed.
Its short comings:
It cannot eliminate or reduce the hazard
If it fails the worker is exposed to the full destructive effects of the hazard
It may be too cumbersome and can interfere with the worker’s ability to
perform the task, thus compound the problem
17. PRINCIPLES OF PREVENTION
“HIERACHY OF CONTROLS”
1. AVOIDANCE
2. EVALUATING THE RESIDUAL HAZARDS
3. COMBATING AT THE SOURCE
4. ADAPTING THE WORK TO THE INDIVIDUAL
5. ADAPTING TO TECHNNICAL PROGRESS
6. SUBTITUTION
7. DEVELOP A COHERENT INVOLVING ALL ASPECTS AT WORK
8. COLLECTIVE PROTECTION OVERIDES INDIVIDUAL
PROTECTION
9. APPROPRIATE INSTRUCTIONS TO ALL EMPLOYEES
18. MONITORING AND REVIEWING
Controls must be reviewed periodically
• Monitor and review when condition changes;
New machinery
Change in process
New hazards
New information
Change in legislation
Change in workforce
New employees
Post accident risk assessment
19. EFFECTIVENESSS OF CONTROLS
• Where hazards cannot be eliminated, control measures must be
implemented to reduce it to an acceptable level.
• Hazards should be controlled by applying contemporary,
comprehensive and proactive management systems than reactive
responses.
Effectiveness must meet these standards;
1. It must be sufficient to prevent the hazard from causing harm
2. It must protect everyone who can be harmed from the hazard
3. It must not create new hazards, or production and quality control
problems
4. It must not create a hazard to the environment or the community
of the workplace situation
20. ROUTES OF ENTRY
Chemical and biological hazards can be transported into the
human body by various agents, pathogens and other forms,
through the four main routes of entry;
1. Inhalation – taken into the body through the lungs
2. Absorption - taken into the body through the skin
3. Ingestion - taken into the body orally
4. Injection (direct entry) - taken into the body
through broken skin
22. ROUTES OF ENTRY
The most common route of entry is inhalation
since all organisms must breathe in oxygen to
live.
Hazards that cause immediate harm such as an
injury from an accident are termed “acute”,
while “chronic” hazards where the harm is
not experienced immediately due to prolong
exposure to the health hazards.
24. Responsibility and Support
Prevention is the first and safest and also the
most effective measure of control for
safety, health and environment hazards.
Safety professionals must become familiar
with health and safety issues in the workplace
because its their responsibility to manage the
safety and health matters, or solicit the
services of specialist of specific safety
situations for successful safety management.
25. Questions
• What is the difference between acute hazards and chronic
hazards?
• What are the steps to controlling hazards?
• Explain in order of priority hazard reduction
• Explain risk and hazard
