4 Risk Rating Risk Rating Activities Possible Safety or Environmental Hazards RB Control Measures to Reduce risk Risk is to be controlled using hierarchy of control measures: 1. Elimination (completely remove from hazard); 2. Substitution (replace the hazard with a lesser hazard); 3. Isolation/ Engineering controls (make a structural change to the work environment or work process) 4. Administration controls (procedures); 5. Personal protective equipment. RA Responsible Officer NOTE: RB = Risk Rating before controls implemented - RA = Risk Rating after controls are implemented. Hazardous substances on site Carrying materials onto site Hazardous materials 3 D H:18 Refrigerant Gases: o Ensure restrained adequately on transport vehicle. o Avoid storing inside cabin of vehicles o Keep minimum quantities o Ensure Material Safety Data Sheet available (within 5 year issue date) o Inspect cylinders regularly to ensure no damage or leaks Take care not to kink copper pipes.

Almost certain Likely Criteria Expected in most circumstances. Will probably occur in most circumstances. Description Effect is a common result Effect is known to have occurred at this site or it has happened Possible Might occur at some time Effect could occur at the site or I ve heard of it happening Unlikely Rare Could occur at some time May occur only in exceptional circumstances Effect is not likely to occur at the site or I have not heard of it happening Effect is practically impossible. Step 2 Determine - What will be the expected effect? Level of Effect Insignificant/Acceptable Minor Moderate Major Catastrophic Example of each level No effect or so minor that effect is acceptable First aid treatment only; spillage contained at site. Medical treatment; spillage contained but with outside help. Extensive injuries; loss of production Death; toxic release of chemicals Step 3 Determine the risk score A: Insignificant 5: Almost certain B: Minor C: Moderate D: Major E: Catastrophic M11 H16 H20 E23 E25 4: Likely M7 M12 H17 H21 E24 Step 4 Record risk score on worksheet (Note Risk scores have no absolute value and should only be used for comparison and to engender discussion.)
