At the project level risk management plan guarantees that HSE Risks are always identified and reviewed prior to the initiation of the site activity. This is a typical practice as part of the project risk management procedure.
During that process of risk assessment, it was decided over which components of the Project’s activities controls should be placed to minimize, or, where practicable eliminate, the risks to health, safety, and environment as a result of those activities.
The project safety risk management plan is designed with explicit references to the project safety requirements defined by the senior management at the corporate level.
The HSE risk plan identifies and details key areas affecting the health and safety of the Project and documents the project safety management system that will be carried out to effectively satisfy the project, client, and legislative requirements in the prevention and management of workplace accidents/ incidents.
At the project start, the project director/manager, in concert with the project team, including the project HSE manager shall ensure the following:
The project manager must ensure these activities are documented and specified activities are done and completed in a timely manner as per the project risk management plan.
In addition, a complete safety risk analysis has to be carried out during which Risk Assessment Reports are created to determine appropriate controls to cover the risks identified.
Risk Management Plan Steps
Hazard Identification – Risk Assessment Report (RAR) – Preparation of risk assessment reports and if necessary, combined with Job Safety and Environmental Analysis worksheets are carried out before work is performed and then evaluated regularly. If a serious accident occurs and/or if significant changes occur that substantially influence the manner of work, then a review of the evaluation must be done.
An approved procedure to be followed while doing Risk Assessment/Job Safety Analysis. The use of a Safety and Environmental Verification Checklist is necessary at this stage.
Project Instructions Safety (PI’s)– Risk Control
Project Instructions Safety is a document generated through the Quality Assurance System and is linked to the Health and Safety Plan.
PI’s may be used to identify health and safety issues and physical provisioning requirements connected with specific activities including abrasive wheels, scaffolds, work platforms, access requirements, etc., or RARs or JSEAs that may need to be completed.
The PI’s and their forms and checklist that formed this HSP are derived from the Master Safety Instructions maintained in the company head office.
Prior to the initiation of the project, this PI has been selected after the completion of the Risk Assessment Report and discussions with the Project Team. Any subsequent PI develop by the project team during the course of the project must be assessed by the HSE Manager before implementation.
Job Safety Analysis (JSEA) – Risk Assessment
Job Safety and Environmental Analysis (JSEA) is utilized where applicable to aid in the identification and satisfactory control of workplace hazards and risks. These may also make reference to any appropriate Project Safety Instructions or Forms.
Job Safety Analysis (JSA) separates a planned task into manageable phases, analyzes the hazards connected with each step, and ensures that suitable controls and checks exist to eliminate or as a minimum control the hazards/risks.
Members of the project construction and safety teams complete a review of all known ‘high’ risk activities associated with the project in accordance with approved protocol utilizing the risk assessment report.
Following identification of all such ‘high’ risk activities, the teams are to guarantee identification, elimination, reduction, control, or protection against such hazards and carry out a Job Safety and Environmental Analysis.
Once prepared in the proposal stage, the applicable Job Safety and Environmental Analysis shall be further evaluated and changed at the site by members of the project team.
A JSEA shall be completed for all activities that:
Identification process
There are four steps in the JSEA activity:
Job Safety and Environmental Analysis JSEA Worksheet – The Supervisor responsible for the proposed work activity shall complete a JSEA Work Sheet.
The Supervisor shall engage with the employees required to complete the work, the appropriate Construction Manager, and the Project HSE Manager.
Risk Management Plan of Subcontracted Activities
The main contractor is responsible for the HSE management of all individuals on site. Standard Project Instruction for the management of Subcontractors and suppliers and will ensure that.
Management of Non-Conforming Situations
The JSEA will expect a representative from the contractor to attend a walk-and-talk meeting to describe how they propose to conduct the task safely. This will then be addressed among those present to ensure all are aware of the operational, risks have been identified and minimized and responsibilities have been determined.
