RA 004 - Fabrication Hotworks

The risk assessment document evaluates risks associated with fabrication works such as welding, cutting, and grinding at pile test locations and a fuel tank area. Key hazards identified include unauthorized work, incompetent workers, lack of preparation, inhalation of fumes, contact with rotating tools, heat/fire/sparks, and flying debris. Control measures specified are work permitting, training, barricading worksites, proper PPE, ventilation, fire watches, and restricting hot works near flammable materials. The assessment determines all risks can be reduced to acceptable levels through implementation of the listed control measures.

ASSESSMENT
*High Risk level must be reduced to at least Medium Risk before work commences. *There should not be any interim risk control measures. Risk control measures should not be overly dependent on PPE or appliances. *If practicable, the hazard should be eliminated
High Risk before work commences. *Management review is required before work commences. 15-25

*A careful evaluation of the hazards should be carried-out to ensure that the risk level is reduced to as low as reasonably practicable (ALARP) within a defined time period. *Interim risk control measures, such as administrative controls or PPE, may be implemented
Medium Risk while longer term measures are being established. *Management attention is required. 5-12

Low Risk *No additional risk control measures may be needed. *Frequent review and monitoring of hazards are required to ensure that the risk level assigned is accurate and does not increase over time. 1-4

Note: Risk assessment shall be reviewed whenever there will be changes in the activities, processes, equipments and in the location of work.
