2. To discuss the steps of risk assessment
The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) says: "A risk assessment is nothing
more than a careful examination of what, in your work, could cause harm to
people."
Employers have a duty under the Management of Health and Safety at Work
Regulations 1999 to carry out risk assessments to identify what hazards exist
in a workplace, and how likely these hazards are to cause harm. They must
then decide what prevention or control measures are needed.
How should employers carry out a risk assessment?
Employers must follow the HSE's advice set out in Risk Assessment – a brief
guide to controlling risks in the workplace (PDF, 226KB).They should not only
walk around the workplace and inspect for any hazards, but consult you
about the hazards you face and liaise with recognized safety reps when
carrying out a risk assessment.
The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 set out
safety management guidance for employers for tackling risks, which you can
find in schedule 1 (General Principles of Prevention). The basic approach is
also known as a 'hierarchy of control' because it sets out the order in which
employers must approach risk management:
1. Substitution (i.e. try a risk-free or less risky option).
2. Prevention (e.g. erect a machine guard, or add a non-slip surface to a
pathway).
3. Reorganise work to reduce exposure to a risk. A basic rule is to adapt
the work to the worker. In an office, ensure chairs and display screen
equipment (DSE) are adjustable to the individual, and plan all work
involving a computer to include regular breaks. For monotonous or
routine work, introduce work variety and greater control over work. In
call centres, introduce work variety by providing work off the phones
and varying the type of calls handled.
4. As a last resort, issue personal protective equipment (PPE) to all staff at
risk, and make sure they are trained in when and how to use this
equipment, such as appropriate eye protection, gloves, special clothing,
footwear.
5. Provide training in safe working systems.
6. Provide information on likely hazards and how to avoid them.
7. Provide social and welfare facilities, such as washing facilities for the
removal of contamination, or a rest room.

Contingency Plan
A contingency plan is a course of action designed to help an organization
respond effectively to a significant future event or situation that may or may
not happen.
A contingency plan is sometimes referred to as "Plan B," because it can be
also used as an alternative for action if expected results fail to materialize.
Contingency planning is a component of business continuity, disaster
recovery and risk management.
The seven-steps outlined for an IT contingency plan in the NIST 800-34 Rev.
1 publication are:
1. Develop the contingency planning policy statement. A formal policy
provides the authority and guidance necessary to develop an effective
contingency plan.
2. Conduct the business impact analysis (BIA). The BIA helps identify and
prioritize information systems and components critical to supporting the
organization’s mission/business functions.
3. Identify preventive controls. Measures taken to reduce the effects of system
disruptions can increase system availability and reduce contingency life cycle
costs.
4. Create contingency strategies. Thorough recovery strategies ensure that
the system may be recovered quickly and effectively following a disruption.
5. Develop an information system contingency plan. The contingency plan
should contain detailed guidance and procedures for restoring a damaged
system unique to the system’s security impact level and recovery
requirements.
6. Ensure plan testing, training and exercises. Testing validates recovery
capabilities, whereas training prepares recovery personnel for plan activation
and exercising the plan identifies planning gaps; combined, the activities
improve plan effectiveness and overall organization preparedness.
7. Ensure plan maintenance. The plan should be a living document that is
updated regularly to remain current with system enhancements and
organizational changes.

Answer Self Check No. 4-2.1
Learning Objectives:
After reading this INFORMATION SHEET, YOU MUST be able:
1. To identify the threshold limit value
2. To explain the hierarchy for effective and efficient protection of
workers and communities
Definitions
The TLV for chemical substances is defined as a concentration in air, typically
for inhalation or skin exposure. Its units are in parts per million (ppm)
for gases and in milligrams per cubic meter (mg/m3) for particulates such
as dust, smoke and mist. The basic formula for converting between ppm and
mg/m3 for gases is ppm = (mg/m^3) * 24.45 / molecular weight. This formula
is not applicable to airborne particles.
Three types of TLVs for chemical substances are defined:
Threshold limit value − time-weighted average (TLV-TWA): average
exposure on the basis of a 8h/day, 40h/week work schedule
Threshold limit value − short-term exposure limit (TLV-STEL): spot
exposure for a duration of 15 minutes, that cannot be repeated more
than 4 times per day with at least 60 minutes between exposure periods
Threshold limit value − ceiling limit (TLV-C): absolute exposure limit
that should not be exceeded at any time
There are TLVs for physical agents as well as chemical substances. TLVs for
physical agents include those for noise exposure, vibration, ionizing and non-
ionizing radiation exposure and heat and cold stress.

Learning Objectives:
After reading this INFORMATION SHEET, YOU MUST be able:
1. To identify the examples of hazards in the workplace
2. To differentiate harm and hazard
What is a hazard?
The meaning of the word hazard can be confusing. Often dictionaries do not
give specific definitions or combine it with the term "risk". For example, one
dictionary defines hazard as "a danger or risk" which helps explain why many
people use the terms interchangeably.
There are many definitions for hazard but the most common definition when
talking about workplace health and safety is:
A hazard is any source of potential damage, harm or adverse health effects on
something or someone.
The CSA Z1002 Standard "Occupational health and safety - Hazard
identification and elimination and risk assessment and control" uses the
following terms:
Harm - physical injury or damage to health.
Hazard - a potential source of harm to a worker.
Basically, a hazard is the potential for harm or an adverse effect (for example,
to people as health effects, to organizations as property or equipment losses,
or to the environment).
Sometimes the resulting harm is referred to as the hazard instead of the
actual source of the hazard. For example, the disease tuberculosis (TB) might
be called a "hazard" by some but, in general, the TB-causing bacteria
(Mycobacterium tuberculosis) would be considered the "hazard" or "hazardous
biological agent".
What is risk?
Risk is the chance or probability that a person will be harmed or experience
an adverse health effect if exposed to a hazard. It may also apply to situations
with property or equipment loss, or harmful effects on the environment.
The CSA Z1002 Standard "Occupational health and safety - Hazard
identification and elimination and risk assessment and control" uses the
following terms:
Risk – the combination of the likelihood of the occurrence of a harm and the
severity of that harm.
Likelihood – the chance of something happening.
Note: In risk assessment terminology, the word “likelihood” is used to refer to
the chance of something happening, whether defined, measured, or
determined objectively or subjectively, qualitatively or quantitatively, and

described using general terms or mathematically (e.g., a probability or a
frequency over a given time period).
For example: the risk of developing cancer from smoking cigarettes could be
expressed as:
"cigarette smokers are 12 times (for example) more likely to die of lung
cancer than non-smokers", or
"the number per 100,000 smokers who will develop lung cancer" (actual
number depends on factors such as their age and how many years they
have been smoking). These risks are expressed as a probability or
likelihood of developing a disease or getting injured, whereas hazard
refers to the agent responsible (i.e. smoking).
Factors that influence the degree or likelihood of risk are:
the nature of the exposure: how much a person is exposed to a
hazardous thing or condition (e.g., several times a day or once a year),
how the person is exposed (e.g., breathing in a vapour, skin contact),
and
the severity of the effect. For example, one substance may cause skin
cancer, while another may cause skin irritation. Cancer is a much more
serious effect than irritation.

2. To discuss the major workplace ergonomic risk factors
Ergonomic hazards
An ergonomic hazard is a physical factor within the environment that harms
the musculoskeletal system. Ergonomic hazards include themes such as
repetitive movement, manual handling, workplace/job/task design,
uncomfortable workstation height and poor body positioning.
Ergonomics is the study of how a workplace, the equipment used there and
the work environment itself can best be designed for comfort, efficiency, safety
and productivity. Often we can improve our levels of comfort and productivity
with relatively simple changes.
Although ergonomics is a broad field, the main areas of concern for
workplaces and employees will often relate to:
workstations (sitting and standing)
equipment layout and operation
computer systems
noise
lighting
thermal comfort
maintenance tasks performed on plant items.
Ergonomic issues can be associated with a wide range of concerns including
the physical design of workstations, workspaces, the working environment,
tools, vehicles, computer programs and plant. It can also involve cognitive
processes such as those involved with workload, decision making, skilled
performance and stress. There are procedures for dealing with all these issues
to make sure any difficulties are addressed.
Confined spaces
Virtual office
Officewise
2. Forceful Exertions
Many work tasks require high force loads on the human body. Muscle effort
increases in response to high force requirements, increasing associated
fatigue which can lead to MSD.
Control methods to consider:
Engineering Controls – Eliminating excessive force requirements will
reduce worker fatigue and the risk of MSD formation in most workers.
Using mechanical assists, counter balance systems, adjustable height
lift tables and workstations, powered equipment and ergonomic tools
will reduce work effort and muscle exertions.
Work Practice Controls – Work process improvements such as using
carts and dollies to reduce lifting and carrying demands, sliding objects
instead of carrying or lifting, and eliminating any reaching obstruction
to reduce the lever arm required to lift the object.
Proper Body Mechanics – Workers should be trained to use proper
lifting and work techniques to reduce force requirements.

According to the World Risk Report of 2018, the Philippines is the third most
vulnerable country to disasters. The country lies in the Pacific Ring of Fire
were 80% of earthquakes occur. Around 20-25 typhoons ravage the country
every year, leading to the loss of lives and millions of damages to
infrastructure and livelihood. About 220 known volcanoes dot the country,
and at least 22 of them are considered active.
The Philippines is also one of the most vulnerable to the effects of climate
change. The drought brought by the El Niño Southern Oscillation has
increased in the last few decades. The dry season is also becoming warmer,
and conversely, the wet season becoming wetter. Sea level rise threaten the
coastal areas of the country.
Wanton destruction of the environment has also made it worse. Illegal logging
and illegal modes of fishing threaten the ecosystem. Armed conflict,
demolitions, and so-called development projects displace families and
communities, adding to the already dire poverty situation. The poverty
situation also inhibits the people’s ability to cope and recover from these
hazards unless we develop their capacities and to create disaster resilient
communities.
Drills
Citizens’ Disaster Response Center’s (CDRC) disaster preparedness and
mitigation services integrate capability-building activities that range from
disaster management to organizational management trainings, workshops,
and planning sessions. Below are the educational services offered by CDRC.
2. Earthquake Drill
Is a drill used to practice in preparation for an earthquake. Schools in some
areas conduct earthquake drills. Stop, drop and hold on is used during the
drill.
4. First Aid
Is the assistance given to any person suffering a serious illness or injury, with
care provided to preserve life, prevent the condition from worsening, or to
promote recovery. It includes initial intervention in a serious condition prior
to professional medical help being available, such as
performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) while awaiting for
an ambulance, as well as the complete treatment of minor conditions, such
as applying a plaster to a cut. First aid is generally performed by someone
with basic medical training. Mental health first aid is an extension of the
concept of first aid to cover mental health.
7. Disaster Preparedness/Management
Refers to measures taken to prepare for and reduce the effects of disasters.
That is, to predict and, where possible, prevent disasters, mitigate their
impact on vulnerable populations, and respond to and effectively cope with
their consequences.

Job safety analysis is generally carried out by observing a worker doing the
job. Members of the joint health and safety committee should participate in
this process. The reason for the exercise must be clearly explained to the
worker, emphasizing that the job, not the individual, is being studied. Another
approach, useful in the analysis of infrequently-performed or new jobs, is
group discussion.
A work procedure may consist of more than one specific task. In such cases,
each separate task should be analyzed to complete a job safety analysis for
that procedure. The final version of the correct work procedure should be
presented in a narrative style format that outlines the correct way to do the
job in a step-by-step outline. The steps are described in positive terms,
pointing out the reasons why they are to be done in this way. Reference may
be made to applicable rules and regulations and to the personal protective
equipment required, if any. Employees who carry out the tasks should be
consulted in developing the procedure.
