Occupational Health and Safety Mgmt Systems
safety through design
integrating hazard and risk analysis into design phase
Risk Assessment Process
- establish analysis parameters,
- Identify Hazards,
- determine the frequency and duration of exposure,
- Assess the severity of consequences,
- determine occurance probability,
- rank risks,
- develop solutions,
- follow up
hierarchy of controls
Eliminate, Substitute, Engineer, Admin, PPE
Elements of a Safety Plan
- Mgmt Commitment,
- Policy Statement,
- Safety Procedures,
- Safe Job Work Procedures,
- Job Safety Analysis,
project safety plan
identifies the entities and individuals responsible and accountable for implementing a safety plan
JSA

safeguarding
any means of preventing people from contacting moving parts
device
control access to the point of operation
guard
barrier at the point of operation
enclosure
safeguards around a machine preventing access to moving parts
fencing
safeguard of a locked fence
safeguarding by location
make the hazard inaccesible
nip point
bite,
two or more mech parts moving in opposite directions
pinch point
like a nip point but not moving in opposite directions
point of operation
where material is worked on
shear point
area created by cutting movement of mechanical parts
built in safeguards
conform to the machine and come from manufacturer
barrier guards
prevent access to dangerous parts of machine
interlocking barrier guards
prevents operation unless guards are in place
