1. PURPOSE
The purpose of the risk management process discussed in this procedure is to ensure that each risk identified
throughout the construction Activity, from preplanning to actual task stage, is documented, prioritized and
mitigated to as low as reasonably practicable (ALARP).

2. SCOPE
2.1. Organizational Scope

This procedure is applicable to all DR. CONCRETE Employees and subcontractor if any, everybody else working
in, or visiting, project areas that are under the care, custody or control of DRC during all phases of the project.

2.2. Work Location Scope

This procedure will apply to all Greenfield and Brownfield workplaces associated with the project, including but not
limited to site, laydown yards, workshops, fabrication shops, paint shops, temporary site facilities (offices), camps,
and off-site work locations.

2.3. Task/Activity Scope

The risk management procedure applies to all Tank Bottom and Roof Coating and External Painting activities at
site, as well as operational and maintenance activities that are associated with the project, e.g., kitchen operation
in the camp, maintenance work carried out in the camp, etc.

The scope of this risk management procedure extends to managing Safety, Security, Health and Environment
(SHSE) risks, however, details regarding health risks and health risk assessment are specified in the Health &
Welfare Management Plan (DRC-000-16540-0023), and security risks and risk assessment are specified in the

4. DEFINITIONS & ABBREVIATIONS
4.1. Definitions

The following definitions shall be applied for this project.

Acceptable Attaining zero risk is not possible. After risk avoidance, elimination or control measures
(tolerable) Risk are taken, the residual risk should be acceptable, as judged by the decision-makers. For
some situations, the residual risk may be high and still be judged by the participants in
an activity to be acceptable.
To accept a risk, the organization (assessor) should have taken every reasonable and
possible measure to control the risk, taking into account the hierarchy of controls, legal
obligations, and relevant and applicable SHSE Policies.
As Low as ALARP stands for "as low as reasonably practicable", and is a term often used in the
Reasonably regulation and management of safety-critical and safety-involved systems. The ALARP
Practicable (ALARP) principle is that the residual risk shall be reduced as low as reasonably practicable.

The key question in determining whether a risk is ALARP is the definition of reasonably
practicable. This term originated from the UK legislation. The ruling was that the risk must
be significant in relation to the sacrifice (in terms of money, time or trouble) required to
avert it: risks must be averted unless there is a gross disproportion between the costs
and benefits of doing so.
Previously developed land, with the intention to re-develop, re-use or expand, and which
Brownfield may be complicated by the presence of hazardous substances, pollutants or
contaminants.
A new Project development requiring new facilities and where no previous infrastructure
Greenfield
exists.
A hazard is a condition or a set of circumstances with the potential to harm people,
property or the environment. Hazards can be divided into three main categories:
Hazard • Health hazards (cause occupational illnesses);
• Safety Hazards (cause physical harm - injuries);
Environmental Hazards (e.g. damage to an ecological system).
Job Safety Analysis A Job Safety Analysis (JSA) is a systematic process for identifying hazards associated
with each step of the job and determining measures for controlling the identified hazards.

In a JSA, each basic step of the job is to identify potential hazards and to
recommend the safest way to do the job. Four basic stages in conducting a JSA are:
• selecting the job to be analyzed;
• breaking the job down into a sequence of steps;
• identifying potential hazards;
determining preventive measures to overcome these hazards
Level 4 Construction Schedule is an execution schedule, also called a Project Working
Level Schedule. Level 4 is the detailed working level schedule, where each schedule is
an expansion of part of a Level 3 schedule and is established within the integrated
Level 4 Construction
project schedule. This is the key working level schedule displaying the activities to be
Schedule
accomplished by the project workforce and is required for every project. The dates
generated by the schedule activities represent the anticipated start and completion of
work required to complete the project.
Probability is the likelihood of a hazard being realized and initiating an event or series of
Probability
events, that could result in harm or damage.
The Project Hazard & Risk Register is a separate and live document where you record
information about risks as and when they get identified. It contains information about:
Project Hazard & Risk • the specific construction, pre-commissioning and commissioning activity;
Register • its identified associated hazards and risks;
• severity, likelihood and risk rating;
action/mitigation plan, ownership and due dates for implementation.
Public Health Public health is concerned with protecting and improving the health of communities

nearby the project site, through promotion of a healthy environment, particularly the
environment in the vicinity of the project site, which can potentially be negatively affected
by the various project activities.
Reasonably Foreseeable A likelihood of something that a reasonable person should be able to anticipate in a given
set of circumstances.
Residual risk is the risk remaining after all reasonable protective measures have been
Residual Risk
taken.
Risk is the possibility, high or low, of injury, loss or damage resulting from exposure to a
Risk hazard with the consideration of the severity of the outcome.
RISK = Possibility x Severity
Risk Assessment (RA) is the process where the Project Team identifies reasonably
foreseeable risks associated with Tank Bottom and Roof Coating and External Painting
activities that might jeopardize health, safety, security, and environment on the project.
Risks are rated by using the risk assessment matrix, and then determining suitable risk
Risk Assessment
controls so that the risks can be eliminated or reduced to an acceptable level. To
evaluate whether risk controls are effective, the risk needs to be re-evaluated and rated
after risk controls are applied and the result of the reassessment should be low, or
ALARP, to be considered acceptable.
A Risk Assessment Matrix (RAM) is a matrix that is used during risk assessment to
Risk Assessment define the various levels of risk as the product of the harm probability categories and
Matrix harm severity categories. This is a simple mechanism to increase visibility of risks and
assist management decision making.
Risk Management is the process of identifying, analyzing and responding to risk factors
throughout the life of a project, with the aim to eliminate or reduce identified significant
risks to a level that is as low as reasonably practicable and tolerable. Proper risk
Risk Management
management implies control of possible future events and is proactive rather than
reactive. Risk
Management is a continuous process throughout the life of the project.
Start-up is the point in a project where process fluids and conditions are established with
Start-up
the intent of making products.
A Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) is a document that outlines the high-risk
construction work activities to be carried out at a workplace, the hazards that may arise
Safe Work Method
from these activities, and the measures to put in place to control the risks.
Statement
For works carried out on a regular basis a generic SWMS may be prepared and used for
those work activities.
Different levels of seriousness and describes the actual or potential consequence of an
Severity
incident. Severity or consequence levels are used in the Risk Assessment Matrix (RAM).

6. PROCEDURE
During execution of each non-routine and critical activity, a hazard identification and risk assessment will be
conducted, the level at which will depend on the hazards, complexity and potential severity identified. This
information can be taken from the detailed method statement. Formal Risk Assessment or Job Safety Analysis
(JSA) will be used to identify mitigation measures. Image 1 below outlines the differences between Risk
Assessment, which is a higher-level tool for more hazardous tasks such as tandem lifts, and the JSA which is a
more practical tool for normal site tasks.

Image 1 – RA and JSA Comparison

Risk Assessment is a formal and more detailed assessment than that of a JSA and is required only when it is
judged that there are greater hazards or complexities with the task which requires a more rigorous level of
assessment. This assessment shall be carried out by a team. It will then be submitted to the Review Group. The
risk assessment will then be reviewed for content and may be revised and then reissued.

A JSA is a broad overview of a task by a competent person such as Performing Authority and Area Authority to
identify any significant hazards involved and appropriate control measures which are required to be in place to
allow the job to proceed. The controls will then be entered on the JSA form.

6.1. Risk Management Process

The risk management planning phase process consists of five essential stages. Each stage must be completed
before proceeding onto the next stage.

6.1.1. Stage 1- List the work activities

List the work activities step by step in a logical order on the Risk Assessment form.

6.1.2. Stage 2- Identify the Hazards

Look for what could reasonably be expected to cause harm. Ignore the trivial and concentrate only on significant
hazards that could result in serious harm or affect several people by considering the equipment and materials
being used and the environment where the work is being carried out.

Manufacturer’s instructions or material safety data sheets (SDS) of hazardous materials and substances can also
help in identifying significant hazards and put risks in their true perspective. Consider tasks being carried out by
teams nearby in the area.

6.1.3. Stage 3 – Assess the risks

Consider people, assets, the environment and company reputation that may be affected or harmed by the
tasks/activities to be executed and enter the results in the initial risk section of the risk assessment form.

6.1.4. Stage 4 – Determine Controls

Risks can be reduced in accordance with the following hierarchy of controls:


DR. CONCRETE GENERAL CONTRACTING LLC
RISK MANAGEMENT PROCEDURE
WQ1411-TANK BOTTOM AND ROOF COATING AND EXTERNAL PAINTING SERVICES
DRC -000-16540-0043 ISSUE: IFP REV: 01 Date: 12-Feb-23 Page 10 of 21
• Eliminate the hazard to remove the risk, e.g. use of intrinsically safe electrical equipment in a classified
area (i.e. elimination of sparks, which are ignition sources);
• Reduce or substitute the hazard with an alternative, e.g. use of sodium hypochlorite solution instead of
free chlorine gas for disinfecting purposes;
• Isolate the hazard from people, e.g. barricading of excavations;
• Control the hazard by introducing suitable measures, e.g. Permit to Work (PTW) system;
• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), e.g. use of safety harness when working at height;
• Discipline – personal discipline, which is competence based (e.g. well-trained staff) and organizational
discipline that is rule based (e.g. adherence to work procedures).
6.1.5. Stage 5 – Verify Residual Risk

Once the above controls have been assessed, enter the results from the re-evaluation of the risks in the Residual
Risk section of the Risk Assessment Form

6.2. Monitor and Review

Review the Hazard & Risk Register from time to time and update when there is a significant change to the Tank
Bottom and Roof Coating and External Painting methodology, or the identification of new significant hazards from
SWMSs and JSAs.

6.3. Hazard Identification

The following systematic approach will be used to identify hazards associated with each task/activity within the
scope of work.

• Define task/activity (SWMS provided);


• Breakdown of task/activity;
• Identify underlying hazards;
• Identify the potential/significant impacts.
Each area of work, with associated tasks/activities broken down, will be studied and investigated according to the
following approach:

• Normal, incidental, and potential-emergency situations, including those arising from:


a) Product/material containment failures;
b) Structural failure;
c) Climatic, geophysical and other external natural events;
d) Sabotage and breaches of security;
e) Human factors.
• Potential hazards and effects associated with past activities.
Hazards identified from each task/activity studied and investigated will be recorded in the Hazard & Risk Register
enclosed in Attachment 1 to this procedure.

6.4. Risk Impact Determination

The risk assessment will be recorded based in accordance with the following:

• Risks under normal routine and non-routine operating modes;


DR. CONCRETE GENERAL CONTRACTING LLC
RISK MANAGEMENT PROCEDURE
WQ1411-TANK BOTTOM AND ROOF COATING AND EXTERNAL PAINTING SERVICES
DRC -000-16540-0043 ISSUE: IFP REV: 01 Date: 12-Feb-23 Page 11 of 21

Hazard classification related to SHSE and impacts on People (P), Assets/Equipment (A), Environment (E) and
Reputation (R);

• Determination of mitigation measures to ensure that the Risk Originator complies with local legislation
and project requirements.
6.4.1. Impact on People, Environment, Assets and Reputation

Each task/activity and the associated hazards, as identified in the Hazard & Risk Register in Attachment 1 to this
procedure, will be assessed in all possible consequential severity based on the following four categories:

• Impact on People (P) in terms of health and safety, such as injuries and occupational health/disease.
• Impact on the Environment (E);
• Impact on Assets and Equipment (A), in terms of damage or destruction;
• Impact on the Reputation (R) of Employer and/or Contractor/EPC Subcontractor.

6.5. Risk Assessment


6.5.1. Consequence Severity Rating

The determination of the consequence (severity rating) of an identified hazard, with or without any control
measures in place, will be based on Risk Assessment Matrix.

The potential impact and its definition will be carefully assessed before the Severity Rating is determined and
entered into the Hazard & Risk Register.

6.5.2. Probability of Occurrence Rating

The probability of occurrence of an identified hazard is determined in accordance with Risk Assessment Matrix.
Determining the probability of occurrence of a hazard with significant impact is a difficult task compared to
determining the consequence of a specific hazard. Typical factors affecting the analysis of probability include:

• Number of times such a situation may arise over a specific task/activity;


• Duration of exposure in terms of hours worked and number of workers exposed;
• Quantities in terms of the amount used or likely quantity that personnel/the environment could be
exposed to;
• Physical conditions, in terms of environment (lighting, ventilation, weather, etc.), equipment and facilities
(temporary structures such as scaffold, platforms, etc.);
• Competency of the workforce executing the task/activity.
Another important factor to consider is the control measures already provided or to be provided.

6.5.3. Analysis of Risk Rating

The analysis of the risk rating is performed in two stages:

• Before the implementation of mitigation measures;


• After the implementation of mitigation measures.
a) Before Mitigation Measures
Once ratings of consequence and probability are determined, the ratings will be entered into the Hazard
& Risk Register and analyzed in accordance with Risk Assessment Matrix. Use of this Risk Assessment
Matrix will determine the level of risk of a hazard and the required course of action. Based on this
analysis, the hazard identified will be classified into:
• Rating of 0 - 3 (Low Risk), review if risk can be further reduced to ALARP.
• Rating of 4 - 9 (Medium Risk), some action is required to reduce the risk to ALARP.

WQ1411-TANK BOTTOM AND ROOF COATING AND EXTERNAL PAINTING SERVICES
DRC -000-16540-0043 ISSUE: IFP REV: 01 Date: 12-Feb-23 Page 12 of 21
• Rating of 10 and above (High Risk), action shall be taken to reduce the risk to ALARP. b) After
Mitigation Measures

Hazards with associated risk factors classified as medium or high risk will be analyzed and mitigations measures
developed to control the risks to ALARP. At this stage of risk analysis, the mitigation measures are taken into
consideration. The process of Risk Assessment is then repeated and the risk factor after mitigation measures will
be entered into the “Residual Risk Factor” column in the Hazard & Risk Register. Any hazard with a Residual Risk
Factor of more than 10 will be unacceptable. Such hazards shall be further analyzed with the introduction of
further mitigation measures to ensure the hazard is reduced to ALARP. Attachment 2 includes a Sample Risk
Assessment Form for reference and use.

6.5.4. Impact & Risk Reduction

To determine suitable and effective risk control measures, the risk management team shall take industry best
practice and experience into account. Risk control measures/actions shall be SMART (Specific, Measurable,
Achievable, Relevant and Timely) in order to be acceptable and effective.

S Specific Ensure detailed information and instruction are provided


M Measurable the result must be measurable after completion of the corrective action
A Achievable the corrective action must be achievable (consider time, resources etc.)
R Relevant the corrective action must be relevant to the finding
T Timely the corrective action can be closed in a timely fashion
When the risk management team discusses risk control measures, they shall take the hierarchy of controls
into account. See Image 2 – Hierarchy of Controls below.

6.6. Task Planning & Risk Management Tools


6.6.1. Safe Work Method Statements

Based on the tasks identified, DRC shall develop a list of non-routine and critical tasks/activities for which SWMSs
shall be developed, and according to the date schedule submit these for approval.

The hazard identification and risk assessment process in sections 6.1 to 6.3 above shall be used to assist in
producing the SWMS.
DR. CONCRETE GENERAL CONTRACTING LLC

WQ1411-TANK BOTTOM AND ROOF COATING AND EXTERNAL PAINTING SERVICES
DRC -000-16540-0043 ISSUE: IFP REV: 01 Date: 12-Feb-23 Page 13 of 21
A completed SWMS shall contain, as a minimum, the following information to allow review and approval by the
Review Group:

List of equipment/machinery involved (attached technical specification);


• List of hazardous material or substance involved (attached SDS);
• Waste management (stream identification and controls);
• List of personnel involved (attached qualification certificates);
• Job Safety Analysis/Risk Assessment number and what Permits are required;
• Summary of significant hazards & impacts (attached Hazard & Risk Register as per Attachment 1);
• Detailed description of mitigation measures and assigned actions.
The team preparing the SWMS and associated risk assessment should also consider the possibility of interaction
of different hazards, including those related to:

a) Location

Attention should focus on the proximity to other plant or equipment, e.g. air intakes, shutdown systems, control
points, vents, drains, sample points and ignition sources. b) Critical Activities

Critical activities include isolation, flushing, inerting, confined space entry, work at height, hot work, lifting, use of
power tools, temporary power and air supplies, pressure testing and radiography. c) Simultaneous Activities

Simultaneous activities should be investigated both within the task itself and with other unrelated activities taking
place nearby. It should be noted that this does not to refer to Simultaneous Operations (SIMOPS), just activities
that are conducted in other areas close to the activity.

A SWMS shall be subject to review, revision and re-submission (if required) when first drafted for approval and
when a change to the methodology is determined/identified.

6.7. Job Safety Analysis

JSA will be conducted prior to execution of all new tasks/activities, especially those classified as nonroutine and
non-critical by the working group. A JSA, led by the DRC Site Manager or Supervisor involves a discussion and
brainstorming session with the working group (including all foremen and selected workers) to identify the potential
underlying hazards, associated risks and mitigation measures. This will then be submitted to Client for review.
Following review and approval, the DRC Supervisor shall ensure that they are communicated to the entire
workforce involved before execution. The process involved in conducting a JSA will be in accordance with the
follow steps:

• Determine the task/activity to be analyzed and the required JSA participants;


• Break the task/activity into sequential stages as planned for execution;
• Identify all possible hazards present;
• Develop mitigation measures;
• Assign action and completion schedule for development of mitigation measures;
• Communicate and educate the working group as in Toolbox Meeting;
• Document the JSA;
• Submit the JSA document to Contractor/EPC Subcontractor for review.
A JSA will be revisited and the whole process repeated if a change to the Tank Bottom and Roof Coating and
External Painting methodology is required. A sample JSA form is enclosed in Attachment 3.

6.7.1. Task Pre-Start Meeting

A prestart meeting, also called “Safety Task Analysis Risk Reduction Talk” (STARRT) is an analysis of work tasks,
conducted by DRC supervisors, involving the employees in the identification and correction of hazards. STARRT
shall be applied to all activities being carried out on the project to summarize and highlight the essential points of
the JSA which have to be transferred on to the STARRT form, including any associated documentation and to
ensure that all personnel involved in the job understand the hazards and control measures. Each work-team shall
actively participate in defining the ways that reduce/minimize the associated risk prior to starting work.

The STARRT shall also consider and include the impact that the planned work tasks may have on other
contractors or work groups. The process also encourages feedback from employees to provide continuous
improvement to the project safety procedures.

STARRT will take about ten to fifteen minutes and at the end of the meeting all members of the work crew shall
sign the attendance sheet included in the STARRT form. A sample STARRT form is enclosed in Attachment 4.
The STARRT shall be performed at the task area.

6.7.2. Personal Risk Assessment Step Back 5 x 5

The DRC supervisor, as part of his job responsibilities, shall encourage all members of the work crew to carry out
a personal risk assessment after the STARRT and prior to commencement of the job activity. utilizes “Step Back
5x5” as a personal and last-minute risk assessment.

Step Back 5x5 is a simple activity that encourages workers to identify and deal with hazards associated with the
task to be carried out and is completed at each step in every task – all day long. It helps to promote a hazard
management culture through continual self-monitoring at the work site and for each work activity. All jobs should
be assessed for their risk potential. Prior to starting the task, the individual worker shall personally:

a) Step back 5 meters (or any distance convenient) and look at their workplace from a distance;
b) Take 5 minutes to review the area looking out for hazards.
These simple questions should be asked:

1. What is the sequence of steps in the job?


2. What are the hazards at each step in the job?
3. How can we control those hazards?

7. TRAINING
7.1. Risk Management Training for Line Management

This training course is designed to help managers and supervisors understand how risk should be managed in the
workplace and what their responsibilities are when it comes to minimizing that risk. During this Risk Management
course, Managers and Supervisors will learn about:

• Why health and safety risks in the workplace need to be managed;


• The strategy and process of the Risk Assessment System including, SWMS, JSA, STARRT and Step
Back 5x5;
• How to identify hazards and assess risk potential;
• How to apply risk controls to avoid potential issues;
• Why it is important to consult workers and how it can help a risk management strategy.

7.2. Risk Management Training for Workers

This training course will not be as intensive as the Risk Management Training for Line Management and will assist
workers to understand how the project manages risks and to what extent each worker is responsible for
him/herself. It also includes how to carry out Step Back 5x5 on a daily and continual basis.

8. RECORDS
All risk management documents produced during risk management activities may be used in incident
investigations and serve also as the most important evidence that the project has fully complied with its legal
obligation to manage all risks derived from workplace hazards. All documents produced from the risk management
process shall be kept on record for the duration of the project. Such documents include, but are not limited to the
following:

• Hazard & Risk Register;


• Safe Work Method Statements;
• Job Safety Analyses;
• Training Records on Risk Management;
• STARRT Records;
• Qualitative Risk Assessment Meeting Records.
