3 sections • 9 lectures • 58m total length

  • Introduction and the course outline3:29

    In this lecture, you will cover the basic outline of the overall course, i.e. what we are going to study today.

  • Various sources of hazards and some unsafe practices we came across5:08

    In this lecture, we will discuss the primary sources of hazards in industry, the first places you must look in order to find out some obvious hazards. Also, we will discuss some of the unsafe habits which are commonly practiced.

  • Risk evaluation through severity and likelihood and concept of risk matrix5:17

    The main procedure of risk evaluation will be discussed in this lecture, the concept of likelihood and severity will be discussed.

  • Procedure of risk mitigation and hierarchy of controls6:42

    The risk control hierarchy and mitigation techniques will be discussed here.

  • Summary, conclusion of the course and concept review6:16

    Final summary, of the online course, will be discussed here, along with some basic concepts that will be reviewed.

  • Practical Demonstration: The Making Of Hazard / Risk Assessment Sheet8:55

    In this lecture, students will be going to learn practically the making of a hazard risk assessment sheet from the scratch, the risk assessment sheet sample which is made in Microsoft Excel is the tool which I have developed for a logistics firm where I have worked as an HSEQ Manager. It is an excel based sheet with formulas you can download it from the downloadable resources tab of this lecture. Three objectives of this lecture.

    1. Explaining blank risk and hazard assessment sheet

    2. Elaboration from the example from the data filled for the logistics firm

    3. Fill the blank sheet from the start in the lecture in order to understand the process completely

Description

We are living in a world where we are facing hazards every day and everywhere, the moment you wake up and went to the washroom, start your car drive to work, and work at an office and then come back home, you will bump into thousands of hazards including from slipping and tripping at home or reckless drivers on roads or any of the others depending on the type of work you are involved in. When we look at the industry we can see many dangerous processes going on, there are machines with moving parts, high-temperature procedures, people working at height handling sharp equipment and working in underground tunnels and mines, they are facing many hazards which can cause them near misses, injuries and in extreme cases deaths. Thus there is a need for Hazard Identification & Risk Assessment (HIRA) techniques.

Risk Assessment techniques must be understood in order for careful assessment of risk assessment if you are made responsible for risk assessment in your department you must be able to know what are the primary sources of hazards and how to evaluate those hazard by grading of likelihood and severity.

You don't need to be an expert level health and safety professional in order to carry out this job, however, you must be aware of HIRA which you will study in this course.
