【正文】 re of the hazards of chemicals used or stored in their worksite,21Nov24,28,Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS),Employees must know how and where to access information about the chemicals in their area (before being assigned work). The importance of evaluating chemical hazard risks cannot be underemphasized! Each supervisor and employee has the responsibility of being competent in the use of MSDS,21Nov24,29,Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS),MSDS have the following information:,Chemical Product amp。 Chemical Properties Stability amp。 Assessing the potential severity of the hazards。 OSH training. e) Personal protective equipment This should be used only as a last resort, after all other control measures have been considered, or as a short term contingency during maintenance / repair or as an additional protective measure. The success of this control is dependent on the protective equipment being chosen correctly, as well as fitted correctly and worn at all times when required by employees.,21Nov24,52,Residual Risks The risk assessment team should ensure that the risk assessment is conducted properly, and that any residual risks are acceptable and manageable. Residual risks are the remaining risks for which the planned risk controls are not able to effectively remove or control. The risk assessment team should also highlight the residual risks of each of the controls. For example, if the risk control involves the use of fall arrest harness and lanyards (a type of personal protective equipment), then one of the residual risks is that the workers may not hook up the lanyards to protect themselves. In this case, the risk assessment team may highlight training (administrative control) as a further measure to ensure that residual risk is further minimized. Once all the risk controls are selected and their residual risks highlighted, the risk assessment team needs to identify the action officers and followup dates. In this way, the specific action officers to implement the controls can be clearly identified, and the followup dates will help to ensure timeliness in implementation.,Simple Risk Assessment Tool,21Nov24,53,IMPLEMENTATION AND REVIEW,The results of risk assessment must be approved and endorsed by the top management. The employer should as far as is practicable, implement the recommended risk control measures as soon as possible. An action plan should be prepared to implement the measures. The plan should include a time line of implementation and responsibilities of persons implementing the workplace safety and health measures. The plan should be monitored regularly until all the measures are implemented. Regular review of the risk assessment plan is critical. While employers are required to review their plans yearly, a review should take place whenever: Whenever new information on safety and health risks surfaces。 include nonroutine operations 8. Identify who is at risk。 IMPACTS ASSESSMENT,21Nov24,64,LEARNING OBJECTIVES,Upon Completion of this Training, you will be able to: Define Environmental Aspects and Impacts and Give Examples of Both Describe What ISO 14001 Requires with Respect to Environmental Aspects Identify Environmental Aspects Associated with your Organization’s Activities, Products and Services Evaluate and Prioritize your Environmental Aspects,21Nov24,65,WHAT IS AN ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECT?,ISO 14001 Defines Environmental Aspect as Aspects can be further defined as: Controlled Influenced Significant Nonsignificant Positive,element of an organization39。s environmental activities, products or services,21Nov24,69,EXAMPLES OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS,Environmental Impacts can Include: Local air pollution Global air pollution Adverse impact to employee health Degradation of local water quality Depletion of natural resources Impairment of property Degradation of flora and fauna Noise pollution,21Nov24,70,HOW DO ACTIVITIES, PRODUCTS AND SERVICES, ASPECTS AND IMPACTS RELATE?,21Nov24,71,WHAT DOES ISO 14001 REQUIRE?,ISO 14001 Requires that you: Establish and maintain a procedure for identifying environmental aspects, which: You can control Over which you can be expected to exert influence Determine which aspects do/may have a significant impact on the environment Consider “significant aspects” when setting objectives and targets Keep your aspects current,21Nov24,72,STOP AND REVIEW!,Environmental Aspects: Are the means in which your organization interacts with the environment Can be: Controlled or influenced Adverse or positive Significant or nonsignificant Stem from your organization’s activities, products and services Do/can result in Environmental Impacts ISO 14001 requires that you identify, evaluate and manage significant environmental aspects,21Nov24,73,USE THE 5STEP ASPECTS PROCESS MODEL,21Nov24,74,STEP 1 – IDENTIFY ACTIVITIES, PRODUCTS AND SERVICES,Determine the scope of your evaluation (directly controlled versus influenced) Compile an inventory of your organiz
