4.0 ObjectiveThe objective of this assessment is to highlight and quantify the risks associated with Rork Projects operations.

This Risk Assessment has been conducted to ensure that all foreseeable risks have been assessed and adequate controls have been put in place to either eliminate or minimise the risks.

The Risk Assessment was undertaken using the Maximum Reasonable Consequence & Likelihood

5.0 ScopeThis risk assessment relates to activities associated with the Bourke Rd project managed by Rork Projects. The risk assessment will highlight those components of the works that require special attention to ensure the safety of all people involved, the protection of the environment and the quality of the works.

6.0 StakeholdersThis risk assessment applies to employees, suppliers, sub-contractors and visitors to the project who are associated with and have some interaction with the construction works.

7.0 Risk MethodologyA risk assessment using the Principals outlined in ISO 31000:2009 methodologies was conducted for the project operations in August 2016.

To assist in the identification of hazards, a team has reviewed applicable legislation, regulations, standards, codes of practice and associated, SWMS, JSA’s, other Risk Assessments, management plans, and accident/incident reports. Refer to Legislation Reference Retgister for a listing of applicable legislation, regulations, standards and codes of practice relevant to the project.

Name Reason for Non Consensus Signature Date

15.0 Risk MatrixRefer to Appendix 1 & 2 that identifies the Risk Matrix structure used in this Risk Assessment.

16.0 Environmental Risk AssessmentRefer to Risk Register that identifies the Environmental Risk Assessment.

17.0 Workplace Risk AssessmentRefer to Risk Register resulting from the Principal Risk Assessment (PRA) that identifies the hazards and control measures to be implemented for this project. The risk register will provide more detail stemming from the initial Project Risk Assessment aimed at identifying, assessing and specifying minimum control measures to be implemented in accordance with the Hierarchy of control. For specific guidance on High Risk Work activities refer to the Hazard and Risk table section 20.0 and the High Risk Work Table in Section 23 of this document.

The Project Manager, Site Manager and WHSE Manager are encouraged to write additional information into the site specific column based on consultation with trades, SWMS reviews and as a result of conditions changing as the project progresses. These changes are discussed during the monthly PMP review.

The induction brief and site rules shall also be updated to include site-specific hazard and risk controls.

19.0 Potential Emergencies for the ProjectDuring the PRA, the project team is to update the emergency procedures so they are site specific. Where there is an emergency identified there must be a response procedure established applicable to the potential emergency scenario.

The site specific emergency procedures must be prominently posted on the site, communicated at induction and available at the time of an emergency. An evacuation drill, based on a potential emergency, is to be conducted at the commencement of the project and scheduled at 6 monthly intervals. Additional specific emergency scenario drills may be conducted at the discretion of the Site Manager in consultation with workers.

A review of the emergency response and emergency arrangements is conducted following each drill and also during monthly PMP reviews.

Procedures and emergency specific controls are outlined within Annexure F Emergency Procedures to deal with the potential emergency, which is site specific.

An evaluation of the first aid arrangements specific to project risks is to be conducted as a part of the Annexure F Emergency Procedures review and requirements assessed - detail within the Emergency Warning, Equipment and First Aid Checklist.

Note: following the establishment of the site specific emergency procedure, the trained Area Warden is to conduct a review of the suitability of the emergency procedures and equipment (documented

within the Emergency Warning Equipment and First Aid Checklist).

20.0 Hazards and RisksTypical hazards/energy sources for consideration during the risk assessment, may include, but not be limited to:

Hazard Potential Harm Applicable Controls in Risk Register – Ref #

Manual Tasks Overexertion or repetitive movement can cause muscular strain

Gravity Falling objects, falls, trips of people can cause fractures, bruises, lacerations, dislocations, concussion, permanent injuries or death

Electricity Potential ignition source. Exposure to live electrical wires can cause shock, burns or death from electrocution

Machinery and equipment

Being hit by moving vehicles, or being caught by moving parts of machinery can cause fractures, bruises, lacerations, dislocations, permanent injuries or death

Hazardous Chemicals

Chemicals (such as acids, hydrocarbons, heavy metals) and dust (such as asbestos and silica) can cause respiratory illnesses, cancers, burns or skin irritants

Extreme Temperatures

Heat can cause burns, heat stroke or fatigue. Cold can cause hypothermia or frost bite

Noise Exposure to loud noise can cause permanent hearing damage

Radiation Ultra violet, welding arc flashes, micro waves and lasers can cause burns, cancer or vision impairment

Biological Micro-organisms can cause hepatitis, legionnaires disease, Q fever, HIV/AIDS or allergies

Psychosocial hazards

Effects of work related stress, bullying, violence and work-related fatigue

Public/Clients Workforce

Injury to member of the public or clients workforce as a result of unauthorized access or interaction.

The project team must review the Risk Register template and remove hazards and trade activities that are not relevant and add site-specific hazard/risk controls and information. The induction brief and site rules should also be updated to include site-specific hazard and risk controls.

21.0 Health Surveillance/MonitoringRork Projects is to establish the provision for health surveillance for all workers who have been identified, as a part of the Principal Risk Assessment, as having a significant risk to their health as a result of their exposure to any of the following Hazards Substances listed in the table below. The type of health surveillance to be considered is listed in the second column of the table.

Tick applicable:

Hazardous Substance/Source

Type of health surveillance to be considered

Asbestos Demography, occupational and medical history and health advice. Physical examination if indicated. Records of personal exposure.

Crystalline silica Demography, occupational and medical history and health advice. Completion of a standardised respiratory questionnaire. Standardised respiratory function tests such as FEV1, FVC and

FEV1/FVC. Chest X-ray, full size PA view. Records of personal exposure.

Vibration Construction vibration monitoring may be required due to the nature of the works and the proximity to neighbouring structures.

Rork Projects will assess the need for Environmental monitoring during the initial planning stage and the review of the PRA.

Noise (refer 2.10 noise monitoring)

Radiation Exposure to the eyes causes ‘arc eye’ or ‘welders flash’ which is a painful inflammation of the cornea. The cornea can repair itself in one to two days, however, if the cornea becomes infected it may lead to some loss of vision. The worker must seek medical attention is symptoms present themselves.

Risk Register to be updated as applicable to specify health monitoring and surveillance requirements as agreed upon with – refer to NOHSC 7039 for guidance in relation to legislative requirements surrounding health surveillance for prescribed occupations/substances that may require mandatory surveillance.

Refer to WHS Regulation Schedule 11 for guidance if there is potential soil contamination or if a hazardous materials report indicates the presence of hazardous material.
