HSE-RA-019 Steel Fixing - Rev 0

This risk assessment procedure outlines the potential risks and recommended controls for steel fixing work. The document identifies six key tasks: 1) Pre-use equipment inspection, 2) Use of PPE, 3) Use of trained employees only, 4) Competent supervision, 5) Lifting steel to the work area, and 6) Carrying steel to fixing locations. Failure to follow recommended controls such as using proper equipment, PPE, training, supervision, lifting procedures and manual handling techniques could result in injuries or property damage. The assessment was compiled by an HSE team and requires multiple levels of review and authorization from project management.
