sump pump to dewater
- Advice on the access/egress provisions.
A Permit to Work must be established
before commencing any excavation work,
except if the excavation is not deeper than
1.2 metres or none of the following risks
have been identified:
- Depth of the excavation
- Possibility of water ingress
- Presence of foundations close to the
excavation or adjacent structures
- Loose rock or soil (including soil
previously excavated)
- Presence of utilities in the ground (gas,
electricity, water)
- Possibility of contaminated soil (hazardous
substances or unexploded devices)
- Presence of simultaneous operations, and
the possibility of cave-ins (considering the
following potential events: sliding, toppling,
bulging, heaving, boiling of the ground and
flooding).
Trenches must be provided with access and
egress every 15 metres.
Access ladders must be secured, extend at
least 1 metre above the top of the excavation
and not be longer than 5 meters. To access
excavations deeper than 5 meters’ specific
 Form Ref.: F-HSE-001

(stairway towers, then ladders).
All storage materials must be kept at least at
a distance of 1.2 metres from the edge of the
excavation unless other distance is defined
by an authorised engineer.
Vehicle movement must be kept at a
distance of 3 metres from the edge of the
excavation.
A warning chain must be present at a
distance of at least 1.5 metres from all edges
of the excavation less than 1.2 metres deep.
Excavations of more than 1.2 metres in
depth, requiring any specific access means,
must have rigid barriers and toe-boards (or
any system which provides equivalent
protection as toe-boards) around the outside
to prevent persons and material from falling.
Toe-boards are not required when a safety
distance of 1.5 metres is maintained between
edge of excavation and rigid barrier.
Excavations between 0,5 and 1,2 metres in
depth must have rigid barriers around the
outside to prevent persons and material from
falling, except when a safety distance of 1.5
metres is maintained at all times by visible
safety chains or flexible mesh at 1.1 metre
height.
Protective system to prevent collapse of the
excavation or cave-in (e.g.: sloping, shoring
and benching, shielding, support systems)
must be installed when the excavation is
more than 1.2 metres deep.
When the excavation is more than 5 metres
 Form Ref.: F-HSE-001
Risk Assessment Form Rev.: 01

in depth, the excavation must comply with

the specification as defined by the
authorized civil engineer (see 5.1.3).
When persons need to cross an excavation, a
bridging walkway must be designed
according to the local regulation(s) and must
be erected with handrails which can
withstand a minimum load of 1kN
horizontally.
All equipment selected to carry out
excavation works must be consistent with
the requirements of the work as established
in the risk assessment document.
Whom works inside the trench must be
stopped if water is flowing into the trench or

Note:
For normal circumstances the risk management shall be reviewed on annual basis, and depending on the magnitude of risks and the potential severity of hazards, these should be immediately reviewed by competent staff. As a
typical issue for these reviews one should verify if the base assumptions have changed since the original design was implemented or since the risks were reviewed previously i.e.:
 If the Plant/equipment performance lived up to the expectations of the original design in terms of accidents, incidents and equipment uptime.
 If there are changes in the work environment or the work practices concerning the hazard which the risk assessment addressed.
 There is evidence that the risk assessment is no longer valid.
 If someone is harmed from exposure to the hazard that the assessment dealt with.
 Are the Legislation and/or public perceptions changed regarding what is now considered acceptable/unacceptable?
