I started by looking to see, if the ILO Codes of practice relating to Automatic Fare Gate Installation
Work (Which there was not ), The British website had lots of resources for example, Health and
safety of supply of machinery safety regulations 2008 Pdf ,as power gate may installation of entry

source of information for our works.

 sources of information consulted; methodology and past accident history after I am discussed with our engineers and job
 who you spoke to; and supervisor. This is helped me to identify the hazards that were present along with any control

 how you identified: work place in safety in site.
- the hazards;
- what is already being done; and I also checked last twelve month accident/Incident register file to see what types of incidents
- any additional controls/actions occurred in workplace and whether any of these incidents were recurring. I also checked the for

For EACH action:
Specific legal arguments: 100 to 150 words
Likelihood AND severity: 75 to 150 words
How effective the action is likely to be in controlling the risk: 100 to 150 words

Moral and financial arguments for ALL actions

Moral, general legal and financial NSC has a moral duty to protect all workers and staffs. Our workers come to work to earn a wage,
arguments not but on risk of falling ill-health, now or in the future, because of the work activities that they carry
out now. Some of the ill-health conditions that could be considered or injuries that could occur, Will
have a major on the lives of the workers and their family/friends. Long team injuries/ill-health and
also likely to have a major impact on our workers mental health. The mental health of other workers
could also be affected if they are witness to any serious injuries to other workers.

Financial impacts could be broken down into three categories. Costs associated with:
1. Occupational ill and injury to workers (Sick pay, replacement workers wages, medical costs, lost
working time etc.)
2. Equipment replacement and damage of goodwill
3. Cost associated with legal action.
When incident occurred NSC could be faced financial issues like claim, hospital expenses, recruit
new employee, if any police case need to spend for lawyer and fine to court.
The NSC might be possible to receive enforcement action for deferred work activity and prohibition
or improvement letter associated with work activities from regulatory of government sector. This
could be impact organization reputation from workers and general public. Moreover, might be

Justification for action 1

Action Purchase the A- Frame Ladder for using in the workplace (Hazard Category 'work at height)

Specific legal arguments The international Labour Organisation (ILO) sets out a recommendation on Occupational Safety
and Health (R164) that supplements Convention C155. Part IV of the Recommendation specially
states that the undertaking (organisation) must :
Provide and maintain workplace, machinery and equipment, and use work methods, which are as
safe and without risk to health as is reasonably practice.
In addition to this a made up country also have been adopted as legislation.at the moment NSS is
in contravention of the ILO Convention and Recommendations as well as the country specific
Legislation.
Consideration of likelihood AND severity The Likelihood of injuries occurring from working in A-frame ladder is very likely. The cable laying
and laying workers, visitor and other workers might be get injury at in the workplace and These
cable laying work only one-week job for us. The workman working in height one day two hours only
When considering the severity, I set 4 categories :
 Minimal : no injury or damage occurred
 Minor : injury requiring first-aid and/or slight damage caused to
Property/Equipment/Building/environment
 Major : injury requiring hospital treatment/stay and/or significant damage caused to
property/equipment/buildings/environment
Catastrophic : death and/or irreparable property damage/Equipment/Building/environment
The severity rating for this hazard being realized has been set at major’ it is very probable that
injuries will require hospital treatment, broken limbs or possible head injuries. Damage to
equipment or property damage is also likely to be significant if it is workers working in height, they
can fall from height.

Part 4: Review, communicate and check
Suggested word counts for each section:
 Planned review date or period and reasoning for this: 50 - 100 words
 How the risk assessment findings will be communicated and who needs to know the information: 100 - 150 words
 Follow up on the risk assessment: 100 - 150 words.

Planned review date/period with Our Company policy is to review risk assessment at least every 12 Months. I therefore set the
reasoning review date to be later than 09 April 2022. However, I will also make sure that this will be reviewed
before this date is there is.

If any new equipment or working procedures brought in,

if they are brought in any new toxic substance in to our company
A change in relevant legislation or other standards (e.g. ILO/OSHA, that will affects to NSC
A significant change to the number of workers or to the shift patterns (Staggered start times) that
are worked
if any serious accident/fatal accidents happened in our company
How the risk assessment findings will be I will arrange a meeting with the Deputy project manager to go through and assign the actions in

have been carried out against each action. The action will be as on mention date to be completed, I will find out the
reasons why, what, when, e.g., is it down to finance or other resources issues such as worker time
to complete actions. If any actions look like they are not going to be comply as on time frame,
directly spoken with finance manager to see if additional required additional resources are available
for the action. Actions that are very overdue (i.e., completion is more than three months late) will be
referred to the Project Manager via the finance manager.
