Hazard Risk Assessment


Introduction:

Hazardous chemicals if used properly play an important role in the manufacturing industry. From
experience, the Ice Cream Business can be considered as the most Hazardous because of the use of
Ammonia refrigerant needed in Refrigeration. Technically, Ice Cream as finished product are stored
in Cold Storages at -20 degrees Centigrade. Ammonia up to this date is still the best Refrigerant. It
would be a huge disaster if Ammonia gas is accidentally released in the atmosphere. Severe health
issues to people will arise and extreme inhalation can lead to fatality.

The second most hazardous factory is Sulphonation Plant. The chemicals used, particularly
Vanadium Pentoxide catalyst, if people are exposed for a longer time (inhalation of catalyst dust)
can lead to death. The Sulphonation Plant final products (Sulphonic Acid, Primary Alcohol Sulfate,
Sodium Lauryl Esther Sulfate, etc.) and by-products are also hazardous because they are all Acidic.
Exposure to Acids is very dangerous to one’s health and can lead to death.

Unilever being one the leading industry in Foods and Household Care has numerous Refrigeration
and Sulphonation Plant globally. We are very proud to say that we have not encountered a single
fatality through the years. This is the main reason why Unilever is very serious and committed to
Safety, Health and Environment, SHE. The Unilever SHE Policy statement is” Unilever will aim to
continuously improve its health & safety performance to a standard which is comparable with the
very best companies in our industrial sector. We will establish and maintain high standards of
safety at work for everyone working in the organization so as to prevent personal injury, promote
good health and prevent occupational ill health”

The Unilever Philippines Sulphonation Plant has been mothballed after 30 years in operation.
Exceptional maintenance has kept the Plant in perfect condition and at par with the best and new
Sulphonation Plant globally. The increasing number of Sulphonation Plant in the Philippines as well
as others in the region has diminished ULP’s Price Competitive advantage, Make vs. Buy. Due to this
effect, the management has decided to mothball the Plant and instead resort to buying of active
detergents locally.

The Sulphonation Plant Assets had been sold to recover some investment. It was decided to
dismantle and removed the Assets after a buyer had been selected.

The dismantling and removal will be done by the Buyer through their accredited 3 rd Party
Contractor. Once the Assets leaves ULP, it becomes the responsibility of the Buyer but as long as the
Assets are still inside ULP, the responsibility is still with ULP. The dismantling process is very tedious
because of rigid safety requirements. ULP’s main targets are: Zero Unsafe Actions and Conditions,
Zero Near Misses, Zero Minor Injuries, Zero Serious Injuries and Zero Fatality. We care for
everybody setting foot inside ULP and that includes the Buyer and their 3rd Party Contractor
personnel.

Planning is very important because no planning is doomed to fail. It is ULP’s requirement to plan
everything starting from Safety Training, Buyer’s Personnel (working on the project) Employment
Certificate and Medical Clearance, Project Timeline, Hazard Risk Assessment, Job Safety Analysis,
PPE requirements, Equipment and Tools Integrity, Work Permits, Local Legislation, etc.
A fundamental part of the planning stage is Risk Assessment and the identification of the
organizations’ significant safety risks by identifying the hazards arising from its operation and
determining those which may impact health and safety. The Risk Assessment process is
fundamental to the successful management of health and safety and enables the identification of
events, activities and situations that could cause harm, and the evaluation of the associated risk.
This enables decisions to be made about how risk is controlled.

The Risk Assessment process shall meet the following criteria:

 They shall be undertaken for all routine and non-routine work and any identified significant
risks shall be eliminated and controlled.
 Where it indicates the need for additional control measures, the implementation of the
additional control measures must be monitored until the work is completed and the
effectiveness of the controls has been proven.
 Risk assessments relating to significant occupational health & safety risk must be
documented and kept under periodic review.

Please see below the Sulphonation and CFAS Dryer Plant Hazard Risk Assessment.

General Requirements
1.SHE Training: It is a must to all personnel assigned in the works to attend and pass all SHE trainings conducted by ULP.
2.Work Permit: It is mandatory to secure a Work Permit for all Dismantling Works to be done. Individual Work Permit will be required for different
works that may involve the following, e.g. Working at Heights, Line Breaking, Working on Confined Space, Handling of Hazardous Chemical, Hot Works,
etc.
3.Job Safety Analysis: The 3rd Party Contractor is required to prepare a JSA and to be discussed with the Contractor’s Workers. All workers involved in a
particular work shall affix their signature on the JSA Form. Prior to start of work, the JSA is again discussed with the workers involved in the work. The
JSA is the topic during the Tool Box Meeting. The Tool Box meeting should be very clear to all workers. NO JSA – NO WORK PERMIT-NO WORK!!!
4.Medical Certification: For different kind of work activities, different medical testing is required (Please see medical requirement matrix). For example,
for workers working at heights, the workers must be tested for Vertigo including Drug Test. The Contractor and ULP will check the right worker that is
fitted for the Job.
5. Daily Exercise: It is required that all Contractor personnel must do a 15 minutes exercise prior to start of work
6. Personal Protective Equipment: All workers MUST comply with the all PPE’s required. The PPE requirements will appear on the JSA. A ULP
representative will do the inspection.
7. Audit: Once the Scaffoldings are installed, ULP representatives will inspect and audit the scaffoldings. Work can only commence if given the go signal
by the ULP representative. An audit form will be prepared and filled up. Any non-conformances will be corrected by the Contractor. Contractor can only
start working if the audit is 100% compliant.
8. Contractor Representative: It is required that the following person MUST be present every day, 8 hours a day, until the duration of the Project. The
Contractor representative are: Contractor Lead Manager/Supervisor, Contractor Safety Officer and Contractor First Aider. A GJ Kids representative
MUST also be present at the Plant. ULP can suspend the work for the day if any one of the Contractor representative is absent.
9. Working Hours: Work is from Monday to Saturday only from 7:30 AM to 4:30 PM. In case of Overtime, the maximum hours allowed is 2 hours to give
the workers plenty of rest so that they are FIT and Healthy the next working day. No work on Sunday and Holidays.
10. Uniforms: Workers will be assigned in Groups. It is recommended to have a minimum of 4 groups and each group will be required to work different
shirt color for easy identification.
11. Hauling and Disposal: It is required that assets for selling must be inspected and checked based on the Fixed Asset Registry List provided by ULP.
The checking should be made in the presence of a ULP Accounting personnel, a Manufacturing personnel and the Buyer’s representative. All list should
be marked and labelled. A Gate Pass should be prepared and duly signed and approved by a Unilever Manager, Middle manager and up. It must also be
signed by the Official Buyer representative. Contractors, Truck Driver and Truck Helpers are not allowed to sign in behalf of the Buyer
12. Good Housekeeping: The Plant must be thoroughly clean after a day’s work. This is mandatory. All rubbish materials including piece metals and
wood must be hauled and disposed to the disposal are. All structural metals and pipes must be arranged properly
13. Property Damage: In the event of damage to property cause by the carelessness of the workers, the Contractor will restore or replace the damaged
property. Unilever is not liable for any Asset damaged by the Contractor
