Managing safely v3.1 – project

Introduction

As part of the Managing safely course, you have to complete a project and have it assessed. You will be expected to carry out a risk assessment based on your own work environment. You need to record the results on the attached sheets and submit them for marking. Do not submit any additional material in support of your project work as only the six parts of the A4 project will be assessed. The project can be word processed or hand written.

When you have completed your work you should return it to

There is a two week time limit for the return of the project. Your project must be completed and returned by

Instructions

Please read all of the instructions before starting work on your project.

The project is broken down into a number of parts. Please complete each section as detailed below.

Part 1 – description of the work tasks that are your responsibility

Record a brief description of all the work tasks within your work environment including:

description/labelled sketch of the location(s) people who work in or visit the area on a regular basis or from time to time. (Think

a description of the location a description of the hazard – in relation to the location the number and occupation of people who could be affected by the hazard – in

relation to the location whether a risk assessment is recommended

Part 3 – a hazard checklist of permanent and/or temporary items of equipment and substances used in your work environment

Record a brief description of three hazards that may arise from equipment or substances used. For each of these hazards please include:

a description of permanent and/or temporary items of equipment and substances used

a description of the hazard – in relation to the equipment/substance the number and occupation of people who could be affected by the hazard - in

relation to the equipment/substance whether a risk assessment is recommended

Part 4 – a hazard checklist of the activities carried out within your work environment

Record a brief description of three hazards that may arise from within your work environment. For each of these hazards please include:

a description of the work activity a description of the hazard – in relation to the work activity the number and occupation of people who could be affected by the hazard – in

relation to the work activity

Note: for the purpose of this exercise all three activity hazards that you are assessing on part 4 must require a risk assessment.

Part 5 – carrying out a risk assessment

Please carry out a risk assessment on all three of the activity hazards you have listed on part 4. Please make sure you include:

a description of the work activity a description of the hazard, hazardous event and expected consequence – in

relation to the work activity the number and occupation of people affected – in relation to the work activity an assessment of risk (please use the 5 x 5 matrix) – in relation to the work activity

Note: for the purpose of this exercise all three activity hazards that you are assessing on part 5 must require risk controls.

MS ProjectPack version 3.1

Part 6 – risk control recommendations

Please complete the risk control form for all three activity hazards you have listed on part 5. Please make sure you include:

a description of the work activity and risk level from the risk assessment existing risk controls any further risk controls required - in relation to the work activity the residual risk (please use the 5 x 5 matrix) - in relation to the work activity a description of the type of monitoring required and how often - in relation to the

residual risk

Note: where you have large numbers of hazards in your work environment you will not have space to record them all. In these circumstances, select a representative sample of hazards for the purposes of this project and record only these. Remember that only three hazards are required for parts 2, 3, and 4.

Each part has a maximum number of marks which can be awarded and details are given in the table below.
