PREFACE

This HIRARC Guidelines for Civil Engineering Program

book was prepared to provide a standard procedure on

Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) management in work

place, laboratory experiments and equipment for the needs of

students and all faculty members. This guideline was

developed systematically to satisfy the requirements stated by

Department of Occupational Safety and Health (DOSH). This

book was intended to give a full-scale view of how hazard and

risk assessment is being carried out by giving related samples

from laboratory experiments. It is hoped that this book can be

a good source of reference for the end-user in identifying

hazards, assessing the risk, and at the same time to control

the hazards.

The approach adopted in developing this book is to make a

simple note by minimizing words and giving real examples for

different types of hazard risk tasks. A special gratitude was

presented to the Safety and Health Committee of the

Faculty of Civil Engineering Universiti Teknologi MARA

Pulau Pinang as the authors of this book whom succeeded to

produce a useful yet informative guideline. The authors would

sincerely welcome any constructive critic, comments or

suggestions to improve the book in near future.

1 HIRARC GUIDELINES FOR CIVIL ENGINEERING PROGRAM

1.0 HIRARC MATTERS

HIRARC is a short term for Hazard Identification Risk

Assessment and Risk Control. These three (3) principles

used in workplaces to manage safety and health.

According to OSHA 1994 in section 15(2)(a): “the

provision and maintenance of plant and systems of work

that are, so far as is reasonable and practicable, safe

and without risks to health.

What is Objectives of HIRARC?

To identify types of Hazards in work area

Evaluate the Risk

Suggest Risk Controls to Organization

Implementing Risk Controls, and

Review Risk Controls

What is Basic Component of HIRARC?

The basic components of HIRARC are as follows;

1. Hazard identification

2. Risk Assessment

3. Risk Control




4. Review of Exist Risk Control

Why HIRARC is Important?

According to Section 15 (2)(a) of OSHA 1994:

“ the provision and maintenance of plants and systems

of work that are, so far as is reasonable and practicable,

safe and without risks to health”

Who Can Conduct HIRARC?

1. Someone who’s trained to conduct HIRARC in

Organization.

2. Safety and Health committee

3. Safety and health Officer

When We Need to Conduct HIRARC?

1. The situations where hazard exists Harmful.

2. The situation is uncertain whether the controls are

available is enough or not.

3. Before implementing corrective measures or

prevention.

4. By an organization that continuously improves security




management.

Where to Conduct HIRARC?

In any workplace that is likely to be hazardous and

needs to be controlled.

How to conduct HIRARC?

Briefly, HIRARC can be implemented in the following

steps:

Step 1. Classify work activities

Step 2. Perform hazard identification

Step 3. Get the risk level

Step 4. Control high risk

Step 5. Review the effectiveness of controls




2.0 PROCESS OF HIRARC

The process of HIRARC start from classify activities,

identify hazards, assess the risk, select risk control and

review the risk control.

Classify activities/ work/ task

Identify hazards

Assess the risk

Select risk control

Review the risk control exist

*Note: All the process of HIRARC documented in FCE

HIRARC Form (Appendix A) based on types of activities

works or workplace.




STEP 1: CLASSIFY ACTIVITIES WORK

How to classify the activities work?

The activities work can be classify based on;

1. Workplace or location – laboratory, office,

construction site, computer lab, studio

2. Procedure of experiment – specific gravity test,

concrete cube test, BOD test, Tensile test

3. Procedure of equipment – uses of mobile crane,

forklift, cutter machine

Tips:

The work activities selected for HIRARC register must be:

1. not too big e.g. manufacturing a car;

2. not too small e.g. fixing a nut; or

3. defined task e.g. loading, packing, mixing,

fixing the door

The workplace selected for HIRARC Register must be:

1. Specific area – Concrete Lab, IDP Office,

Computer Lab

2. Not too small area – small store, Janitor room




3. Easy to in and exit

4. The place not declared as caution/ restricted

area – TNB sub-station




STEP 2: IDENTIFY HAZARD

Generally, Hazard describe as a source or a situation

with a potential of harm in terms of human injury or

health, damage to properties, damage to environments

or a combination of these.

What is the different between hazard, danger and

risk?

Danger is relative exposure to hazard and meanwhile,

risk is combination of the likelihood of an occurrence of a

hazardous event with specified period or in specified

circumstances and the severity of injury or damage to

the health of people, property, environment or any

combination of these caused by the event.

Types of Hazard

Generally, hazards can be divided into three (3) main

groups;

A. Safety Hazards - is any force strong enough to

cause injury, or damage to Property.

B. Health hazards - is any agent that can cause

illness to an individual.

C. Environmental Hazards – pollution release to the

environment that may cause harm or deleterious

effects.

(source: DOSH HIRARC Guideline 2008)




To facilitate hazard identification, it can be categorized

as follows;

1. Chemical Hazard

2. Physical Hazard

3. Biological Hazard

4. Ergonomics Hazard

5. Psychosocial Hazard

6. Mechanical Hazard

7. Electrical Hazard

What are The Sources of Hazard?

The main sources of hazard are from unsafe act and

unsafe condition.

How to identify Hazards?

We can identify hazards by doing these activities;

1. Workplace Inspections

2. Discussions & Interview

3. Internal & external Audit




4. OSH Training

We can also identify the hazards by refer to these

documents below;

1. Accident Statistics or report

2. Policy – UiTM Safety Policy, UiTM Policy

3. Legal – OSHA 94, FMA 67

4. Manual – Lab manual, equipment manual

5. SOP – Standard Operating Procedure

6. ERP – Emergency Response Plan

7. SDS – Safety Data Sheet

8. Feedback & complaint




STEP 3: ASSESS THE RISK

Risk assessment is the process of evaluating the risk to

safety and health arising from hazards at work.

How to assess risk in the workplace?

Step 1: Look for hazards.

Step 2: Decide who might be harmed and how.

Step 3: Evaluate the likelihood (probability) and the

severity (consequence) risks and decide whether the

existing precautions are adequate or whether more

should be done.

A. Likelihood – this value is based on the likelihood

of an event occurring.

You can ask the question “How many times has this

event happened in the past?”

Assessing likelihood is based on worker experience,

analysis or measurement.

Likelihood levels range from “most likely” to

“inconceivable.”




TABLE A: Likelihood level (Based on UiTM OSH

Manual 2016)

LIKELIHOOD EXAMPLES RATING

Most Likely The most likely result of

the hazard / event being

realized

5

Possible Has a good chance of

occurring and is not

unusual.

4

Conceivable Might be occur at

sometimes in future

3

Remote Has not been known to

occur after many years.

2

Inconceivable Is practically impossible

and has never occurred.

1

B. Severity – it can be divided into five categories.

Severity are based upon an increasing level of

severity to an individual’s health, the environment

or to property. Table B indicates severity by using

the following table;




TABLE B: Severity Level (Based on UiTM OSH

Manual 2016)

C. Risk Assessment

Procedure using Risk Matrix (TABLE C);

1. Find the severity column that best describes the

outcome of risk.

2. Then follow the likelihood row to find the description

that best suits the likelihood that the severity will occur.

3. The risk level is given in the box where the row and

column meet.

Risk can be calculated using the following formula:

Relative Risk = Likelihood X Severity

The relative risk value can be used to prioritize necessary

actions to effectively manage work place hazards. Table

D determine priority based on the following Risk Priority

Number (RPN) in Table D.




TABLE C: Risk Matrix (Based on UiTM OSH Manual 2016)




TABLE D: Relative Risk




STEP 4: SELECT RISK CONTROL

“Risk control is the process used to identify all

practicable measures for eliminating or reducing the

likelihood of injury, illness or disease in the workplace, to

implement the measures and to continually review the

measures in order to measure their effectiveness.”

What is the matter that must be consider in

implementing risk control?

1. Review measures regularly and modify if necessary.

2. Comply with national laws and regulations.

3. Reflect good management practice.

4. Consider the current state of knowledge.

5. Include information or reports from organizations

related i.e., DOSH, OSH services.

What is Hierarchy of Control?

The hierarchy is in a descending order from the control

measure which gives the greatest level of safety, but

they may be used in combination. Generally the order is;




1. Elimination most effective

2. Substitution

3. Engineering Control

4. Administration Control

5. Personal Protective Equipment least effective

Tips* Administrative control and PPE should be

considered only as “back-up” control measures.

1. Elimination

Getting rid of a hazardous job, tool, process,

machine or substance is perhaps the best way of

protecting workers.

Example; a salvage firm might decide to stop buying and

cutting up scrapped bulk fuel tank due to explosion

hazards.

2. Substitution

Sometimes doing the same work in a less

hazardous way is possible.

Example; a hazardous chemical can be replaced with a

less hazardous one. Controls must protect workers from

any new hazards that are created.




3. Engineering Control

a. Redesign – jobs and processes can be

reworked to make them safer.

Example; container can be made easier to hold and lift.

b. Isolation – if a hazard cannot be eliminated

or replaced, it can sometimes be isolated, contained or

otherwise kept away from workers.

Example; an insulated and air-conditioned control room

can protect operators from a toxic chemical.

c. Automation – dangerous processes can be

automated or mechanized. Example; computer-

controlled robots can handle spot welding operations in

car plants. Care must be taken to protect workers from

robotic hazards.

d. Barriers – a hazard can be blocked before it

reaches workers.

Example; special curtains can prevent eye injuries from

welding arc radiation. Proper equipment guarding will

protect workers from contacting moving parts.

e. Absorption – baffles can block or absorb

noise. Lockout systems can isolate energy sources during

repair and maintenance. Usually, the further a control

keeps a hazard away from workers, the more effective it

is.

f. Dilution – some hazards can be diluted or




dissipated.

Example; ventilation systems can dilute toxic gasses before they reach operators.

4. Administrative Controls

a. Safe Work Procedures (SWP) – workers

can be required to use standardized safety practices. The

employer is expected to ensure that workers follow these

practices. Work procedures must be periodically

reviewed with workers and updated.

b. Supervision and Training – initial training

on safe work procedures and refresher training should

be offered. Appropriate supervision to assist workers in

identifying possible hazards and evaluating work

procedures.

c. Job rotations and reschedule task – it can

reduce the time that workers are exposed to a hazard.

For example, workers can be rotated through jobs

requiring repetitive tendon and muscle movements to

prevent cumulative trauma injuries. Noisy processes can

be scheduled when no one is in the workplace.

d. Housekeeping, repair and maintenances

programs – housekeeping includes cleanings, waste

disposal and spill cleanup. Tools, equipment and

machinery are less likely to cause injury if they are kept

clean and well maintained.




e. Hygiene – hygiene practices can reduce the

risk of toxic materials being absorbed by workers or

carried home to their families. Street clothing should be

kept in separate lockers to avoid being contaminated by

work clothing. Eating areas must be segregated from

toxic hazards. Eating should be forbidden in toxic work

areas. Where applicable, workers should be required to

shower and change clothes at the end of the shift.

5. Personal Protective Equipment

- Personal Protective equipment (PPE) and

clothing is used when other controls measures are not

feasible and where additional protection is needed.

- Workers must be trained to use and maintain

equipment properly.

- The employer and workers must understand the

limitations of the personal protective equipment.

- The employer is expected to require workers to

use their equipment whenever it is needed.

- Care must be taken to ensure that equipment is

working properly.

- Otherwise, PPE may endanger a worker’s health

by providing an illusion of protection.




STEP 5: REVIEW RISK CONTROL EXIST

A review follow-up is always essential. Review is an

important aspect of any risk management process. It is

essential to review what has been done to ensure that

the controls put in place are effective.

Inspect, evaluate and monitor hazard controls during

inspections, routine maintenance, and other activities.

Ask the following questions;

a. have the risk controls exist solved the problem?

b. is any risk to workers posed by the risk controls

contained?

c. are all new hazards being identified?

d. are significant, new hazards appropriately controlled?

e. are accident reports being analyzed?

f. are any other risk control required?

Lastly, each HIRARC must be fully documented and

completed by using FCE HIRARC Register Form.
