implementation and maintenance of management
system
 competent and trained employees

Version two 2007 12

 Hazards and Effects
Management Process
 HEMP provides a structured approach to:

Version two 2007 16
 HSE Case
 HSE Case:
 combines information from hazards and effects
register
 identifies hazard effects and threats
 assesses likelihood and consequences of a
hazardous event
 manages potential causes by detailing control
measures
 mitigates potential consequences with recovery
measures
 demonstrates how risks are managed to ALARP

Version two 2007 17

Identifying Hazards and Effects

 Identified and assessed by:

 experience and judgement
 checklists
 codes and standards
 structured reviews techniques

Version two 2007 18

 Determining Risk
 Factors in determining risk:
 complexity of facilities, activities, products and services
 routine, non-routine and emergency activities
 supervision, communication and worker competence
 detriment to workforce, public and the environment
 climatic and other variable operating conditions
 effectiveness of control barriers

Version two 2007 19

Risk Assessment
 Risk to:
 people
 asset
 environment
 reputation
 Assessed by severity
and likelihood

Version two 2007 20

Risk Severity

 Severity ratings:
 none
 slight
 minor
 major
 national
 international

Version two 2007 21

Likelihood of Risk Occurring

 Increasing likelihood:
 never heard of in industry
 heard of in industry
 incident has occurred in PDO
 happens several times per year in PDO
 happens several times per year in a location

 Control Measures
 Control measures:
 preventative measures to reduce likelihood of
risk occurring
 mitigatory measures to reduce consequences
 recovery measures to reduce chain of
consequences arising from risk event

 Control hierarchy:
 elimination
 substitution

 ALARP

 As low as is reasonably practicable (ALARP):

 risk is reduced to a level of ALARP, at a point in
time in relation to the difficulty and cost in
achieving a commensurate level of risk reduction
