This will assist in understanding tabs within the assessment which has been identified as
problematic in the past.
Read with the OPERATIONAL RISK MANAGEMENT PROCEDURE (SS-ZA-PGM’s-PRO-SAF-
GOV-0005)

Cover Page
Complete the entire cover page, ensuring the title is relevant to the work being conducted. The date of the assessment is the day which the
assessment was conducted and not when the work is planned. The revision number starts at 0 and will increase as and when the assessment
is reviewed and re-signed.
The operation needs to be specific but should it be applicable to multiple operations and only one risk assessment will be used, you will
refer to the operation as PGM Operations. Reference numbers are speicific to each operation as well as the risk assessment. The reference
number can not be used among multiple / different risk assessments or operations. To obtain a reference number, please request it from
the Contractor Safety Department Supervisors.
The Approval needs to be done by the Contractor as well as legal appointees for the specific operation.

Overview

The overview is broken into two portions, firstly the Scope of the assessment where you identify all the activities / functions of the work you
will be doing and the second portion is any tools / equipment / material / etc. which you will be using. This must be used whilst completing
the WRAC Assessment to ensure all aspects is covered.

Team Members and Acknowledgement Register


The team members tab must include the members whom drafted and workshopped this risk assessment. It is not meant for persons to sign
after the fact.
Persons whom will participate in the work and may be affected by the activities needs to sign off on the acknowledgement register prior to
the work commencing. This is to ensure those persons are familiarised with the contents of this assessment.

WRAC
The WRAC needs to be completed systematically using information established in your overview. Covering all activities, task steps,
equipment, etc. The unwanted event needs to be specific in what can go wrong (Unwanted Event) during the activities, task steps, using
equipment, etc. It is a specific description of what can go wrong, indicating the hazard and possible contact point resulting in the
consequence or loss.
i.e. Whilst working ontop of the roof, the person slips and falls from height resulting in injuries. or Whilst the person is barring, a
rock dislodges from the hanging wall coming into contact with the person resulting in injuries.
Controls need to be specific to the event as well, what you have in place to prevent the event and also mitigate / reduce the consequence
should it happen.
The risk rating should be approached in a similar fasion, and be realistic. You need to consider the controls when rating both your likelihood
and consequence.
Events which is still high needs to be addressed immediatly and recommendations completed. For medium risks, you can either institude
History Log
additional controls and / or enforce the current controls which is in place.
You need to update the history log, everytime changes and ammendments is made after the first approval. This will require you to update
the cover page (Revision Number) and have it re-approved.

Revision Triggers
Revisions are not time based or "expiry" dates. Revisions are based on triggers;
- Serious accidents and injuries (internal and external),
- Change management for; new equipment, machinery, changes in procedures or method statements, trials, testing, products / service design,
construction,
- Section 54 stoppages,
- Legislation – including changes in legislation,
- MCOP reviews and new guidelines issued,
- Emergency situations,
- Permissions and exemptions,
- Alternatively, when management requests.

Overview
In accordance with Section 11 and 21 of the Mine Health and Safety Act, 29 of 1996, and Section 10 of the Occupational Health and
Safety Act, a Risk Assessment must be conducted to identify any potential hazards and evaluate the associated risks.

OBJECTIVE

The objective is to conduct a Risk Assessment study to identify and evaluate the potential operational hazards along with each
hazards' potential unwanted events and implement controls to reduce the potential risks.

Also to provide management with the necessary information to institute reasonably practicable measures to eliminate or minimise
the identified significant hazards and effectively manage them in order to protect employees, environment and the operation against
the potential consequences.

SCOPE

The scope is very important; it determines the parameter within which the Risk Assessment is conducted.
This Risk Assessment considers task based activities. All exclusions for this Risk Assessment should also be listed.

The Scope of this Risk Assessment includes the following:

TERM DEFINITION

Means an independent individual, company or other legal entity that agrees to supply goods, material,
Contractor equipment, personnel, and/ or services to Sibanye-Stillwater, including sub-contractors.
(Note: Contractors are subject to the same rules, regulations and other requirements as an employee)

A means to reduce the likelihood of a risk occurring and \ or minimise the consequences once an event has
Control occurred.

Employee/s All Sibanye-Stillwater PGM's employees, visitors and contractors.

The outcome of an event or situation expressed qualitatively or quantitatively, whether a loss, injury, health
Consequence or environment impact, or disadvantage, or a benefit, gain or advantage.

A source of potential harm to people, facilities, the environment or the community that, should it involve
potential damage, will be an ‘energy’ such as electricity, pressure, chemical, etc. The environmental term,
“aspect”, is synonymous with hazard. A hazard must be recognised and understood in order to manage the
Hazard related risk. Understanding a hazard includes the nature, magnitude, and potential consequences as well as
relevant “target” or impact characteristics, potential timeframes, pathways or mechanisms of its
manifestation and residual harm. Also, understanding sources of harm to the community may require
recognition of incentives.

Likelihood The probability or chance that and event will occur.

A combination of the likelihood of an occurrence of a hazardous event or exposure and the severity of the
impact (e.g. injury, illness, environmental impact) that may be caused by the event or exposure.
The effect of uncertainty on business objectives.
a) An effect is a deviation from the expected – positive and/or negative;
b) Risk is forward looking and refers to future events or circumstances;
Risk c) Risk is often characterised by reference to potential events, consequences, or a combination of these and
how they can affect the achievement of objectives;
d) Objectives can have different aspects such as financial, health and safety, and environmental goals and
can apply at different levels such as strategic, organisation-wide, project, product, and process;
e) Risk is often expressed in terms of a combination of the consequences of an event or a change in
circumstances, and the associated likelihood of the occurrence of the consequence.

A task oriented risk assessment which can be applied by a work team prior to undertaking a potentially
Job Risk Assessment (JRA) hazardous activity. It uses job observation and experience as the basis for identifying hazards and controls
to be used in the execution of the task.

A structured, measured set of tasks or activities designed to produce a specific output (service or product)
Process for a particular customer(s).

Task Piece of work to be done, an activity or set of activities that might be defined as part of a process.

Determination of the risk level associated with unwanted events by means of likelihood of occurrence and
Risk Rating consequences; normally use to prioritize risk management efforts.

An incident or situation which occurs in a particular place during a particular interval of time. Events
Unwanted Event involve releases or manifestations of, or exposures to the hazard.

TERM DEFINITION
These are controls that are currently in place and effective, these controls are put in place to reduce/
Current Controls mitigate the possibility of the unwanted event occurring. Examples: Daily Inspections, Monitoring, Guards
over motors, restricted areas etc.

Considering the presence and magnitude of the hazard/ energy and the exposure to that hazard (number of
Likelihood Rating people and frequency of the tasks exposing those people), also the status of existing controls.

Consider the maximum reasonable consequence of the unwanted event for each of the 7 Impact Types. If
Consequence Rating the unwanted event occurs what will be the outcome/ impact thereof; i.e. multiple fatalities, breach of
law with possible criminal prosecution etc.
