 A hazard map is a map
that highlights areas that
are affected by or are
vulnerable to a particular
hazard. They are typically
created for natural
hazards, such as
earthquakes, volcanoes,
landslide, flooding and
tsunamis. Hazard maps
help prevent serious
damage and deaths.
WHAT IS IN A HAZARD MAP?

 Hazard maps are developed to illuminate areas that are affected

or vulnerable to a particular hazard. They are typically made for
natural hazards such as earthquake ground motion, flooding,
landslide, liquefactions, and tsunami.
WHAT ARE THE 4 HAZARD MAPS?
HAZARD MAPS
PREPAREDNESS
PREVENTION AND MITIGATION
DISASTER RESPONSE AND EARLY
RECOVERY
REHABILITATION AND RECOVERY
 WHAT IS THE FUNCTIONS OF HAZARD MAP?

Hazard maps provide important information to help people

understand the risks of natural hazards and to help mitigate
disasters. Hazard maps indicate the extent of expected risk areas,
and can be combined with disaster management information
such as evacuation sites, evacuation routes, and so forth.
MANAGING HAZARD

SOMETIMES USING MORE THAN ONE CONTROL MEASURE

COULD BE THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAY TO REDUCE THE
EXPOSURE TO HAZARD.
1. Eliminate the hazard. Remove it completely from your workplace.
2. Substitute the hazard.
3. Isolate the hazard.
4. Use engineering controls
5. Use administrative controls
6. Use personal protective equipment (PPE)
 WHAT ARE THE 5 CLASSIFICATIONS OF
HAZARDS?
Understand and know the occupational safety and health
Administration’s (OSHA) five types of workplace hazards and take
employee risk. Safety hazards encompass any type of substances,
condition or object that can injure workers
CHEMICAL
BIOLOGICAL
PHYSICAL
ERGONOMIC
WHAT ARE THE 5 TYPES OF CONTROLLING
HAZARDS?

THERE ARE FIVE GENERAL CATEGORIES OF CONTROL

MEASURES:
ELIMINATION
SUBSTITUTIONS
ENGINEERING CONTROLS
ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
WHY IS HAZARD MANAGEMENT IMPORTANT?

By identifying the

hazards, assessing
the risk involved and
then controlling or
eliminating these
risk, the
consequences and/or
likelihood of illness,
injury and death are
reduced.
HOW DO YOU IDENTIFY HAZARDS?

To be sure that all hazards are found

 Look at all aspects of the work and include non-routine activities such as
maintenance, repair, or cleaning.
Look at the physical work environment, equipment, materials, products,
etc.
Include how the tasks are done.
Look at injury and incident records.
 WHAT IS THE IMPACT OF HAZARD?

What is meant by the impacts of hazard?

 Impacts of hazard mean the social, economic and environmental
influence on society that a natural physical phenomenon can have.
These include loss of life, injuries, damage to infrastructure,
businesses and the ecosystem.
HOW CAN WE REDUCE HAZARD AND RISKS IN
THE HOME?

reduce flammable clutter, such as old boxes or paper.

never leave cooking unattended.
maintain any fireplaces and chimneys, with regular inspections
from a professional.
assess electrical systems, and seek the assistance of an electrician if
you notice frayed or loose wires.
WHAT IS HAZARD PREVENTION AND CONTROL?

Effective controls protect

workers from workplace
hazards; help avoid
injuries, illnesses, and
incidents; minimize or
eliminate safety and health
risks; and help employers
provide workers with safe
and healthful working
conditions.
