HIRARC
1.Classify work activities.
2.Identify hazard.
3.Conduct risk assessment.
4.Recommend control measures.

Types of hazards: physical hazards

A. Noises
1) Work activity:
Noise from various activities at the construction site, such as welding
machines, jackhammers, cement mixers, and hand tools.
2) Identify hazards:
Sudden loud volumes and repetitive sounds can be distractions for workers
and problem hearing.
3) Risk assessment:
Exposure to excessive noise can cause long-term hearing problems such as
deafness and hearing loss.
4) Control measure:
The employer is responsible for carrying out a comprehensive noise risk
assessment, ensuring the correct use of personal protective equipment (PPE),
inspecting, and maintaining PPE, and providing suitable PPE if necessary.

B. Vibration
1) Work activity:
Uses of tools such as hammer drills, chainsaws, and chipping hammers
2) Identify hazards:
Those who work for long periods of time with vibrating tools are most at risk,
as the vibrations cause irreversible damage to muscles and tissues in the body
over time.
 3) Risk assessment:
Power tools transmit these vibrations to the worker's hands, arms, and
shoulders, which can eventually cause nerve damage to the fingers, hands, and
wrists. Whole-body vibration exposure affects several parts of the human
anatomy, including the legs and feet.
4) Control measure:
Wear appropriate protective equipment, such as boots with anti-vibration
features, impact gloves with thick padding, and ear protection. Workers who
are regularly exposed to heavy machinery should be given safety training and
equipment that will help them protect themselves from vibration hazards.

C. Working at Height
1) Work activity:
Work on scaffolding, ladders, and roofs.
2) Identify hazards:
Misuse or failure of safety equipment causes the risk of falling from high
places and unstable work surfaces can cause tools to fall on workers below.
3) Risk assessment:
Workers can fall from high places, and objects from above can fall on workers
below and cause a fatal injury.
4) Control measure:
Implement training in the use of safe work practices and the maintenance of
PPE. Use equipment with an extra level of safety to reduce the risk of a fatal
fall. For example, scaffolding with double guard rails and safety nets can
reduce the risk of falling.

D. Slips, trips, and falls

1) Work activity:
Obstacles with building materials and safety equipment.
2) Identify hazards:
Slipping and tripping over worker tools, equipment, and unused materials
3) Risk assessment:
Causing severe injuries such as broken bones or concussions.
4) Control measure:
Those in control of a construction site must manage the site effectively so that
workers can move around it safely. All risks that are likely to cause an
accident should always be reported to reduce the possibility of injury.

E. Electricity
1) Work activity:
Work near underground or overhead cables near power lines.
2) Identify hazards:
Easily get shocked and arc flash or explosions during work.
3) Risk assessment:
When carrying out electrical work in wet conditions or using non-
professionals to complete electrical work, it can cause numerous injuries at the
workplace.
4) Control measure:
Allow only qualified electricians to carry out electrical work and add safety
warnings and barrier systems to protect those working with overhead cables
and power lines. Implement good practices for workplace organization and
work phases to reduce the risk of incidents.
