Department of Safety & Risk ManagementWhat is Integrated Safety Environment Management (ISEM)?
ISEM is a 5-step planning, performance, and review process for incorporating safety and environmental best practices into work activities.
The risk management process—of identifying, analyzing, evaluating,and ultimately responding to and monitoring risk—is at the heart ofan integrated safety and risk management system. (SRM)Extending this process across an entire organization, looking at both“upside” and “downside” risk, and considering risk in the context of strategy is what differentiates “SRM” from ‘Traditional’ riskmanagement.
HIRAC- Hazard Identification Risk Assessment Control is a tool used to: To identify types of Hazard in work area To make Risk Assessments To suggest Risk Controls to Organization To implementing Risk Controls To review Risk Controls

Department of Safety & Risk ManagementUnderstanding Risk Assessment Controls
This Guide to Risk Assessment & Response deals with the risk management process shown in Figure1: establishing the context, and identifying, analyzing, evaluating, and responding to risks andopportunities that could affect the institution or a department’s ability to achieve its strategic goalsand objectives.
The context and the risk assessment steps form the basis for decision-making about which risks oropportunities are priorities, what the appropriate response should be, and how resources should beallocated to manage the risk or opportunity in a way that best supports the organization’s strategy.
The risk response step involves deciding on and planning for the best way to “treat” or modify therisk, and implementing that plan.

Department of Safety & Risk ManagementEffective Risk Assessment Methodologies
Objectives; utilize best practices that address inherent risk in the following areas:Potential impact of “Prevention through Design”, “Risk Management,” and “Occupational Health & Safety Management Systems”
Identifying human performance aspects or serious injury and fatality prevention, focusing on best practices to manage risk at the operator/group level in the final work planning stages and work execution Systems-based approach requires the organization to assess and prioritize its occupational health and
safety management system (OHSMS) on an on-going basis; Hazard-based approach begins with the hazardous characteristics of the materials, environment, or
worksite considering the possible activities that may affect them, and the consequences; and Task-based approach begins with a job, breaks the job into specific tasks, identifies the hazards associated
with the tasks and then assesses the risks.
Common element throughout best practices is high level of employee involvement in the risk assessment process

Department of Safety & Risk ManagementHazard Identification Risk Assessment Controls: HIRAC
Any individual at any level of the institution may use this guide to assess and plan responses to risks and opportunities in their area. For the most part, however, risk assessments at Cal Maritime will be conducted along three primarypathways:
1) Administrative Annual Review: As part of Cal Maritime’s annual SRM process, “responsible officials” (deans, vice presidents, directors, or other senior officials designated as responsible for a risk) will be asked to identify and assess the institutional-level risks and opportunities for which they areresponsible.
2) Strategic Operational Review: Cal Maritime senior management may choose to conduct a risk assessment of a planned, institutional, strategic initiative to inform decision-making.
3) Post Incident/Complaint Review: Vice presidents, deans, directors, or other senior officials may conduct a risk assessment for their area that considers college-, school-, division-, or department-levelrisks.

1. Start by meeting with your department and identifying your Team Members to assist with completing the attached Table.• Familiarize your self with the HIRAC Table and reporting criteria
by using the Guide Tables in this presentation. 2. Brainstorm
• Try Identify all your Department specific hazards. These represent the specific dynamics your Team faces on a day to day basis.• Example: Workstation, desk, chair, lighting
• Then expand to the Campus as a whole.• Example: Walking downstairs from parking lot to office.
3. Start filling in your data• Insert new rows as needed• Use the Table Guides in this handout to help you rank Low-
Moderate-High impacts to your operation.4. Turn your Department/Division Level HIRAC Table in to the
Department of Safety & Risk Management when you have finished.

Department of Safety & Risk ManagementHIRAC: Establish the Context
The purpose of establishing the context for risk assessment is to set the stage for risk identification. Since “risk” is defined as “any issue (positive or negative) that may impact an organization’s ability to achieve its objectives,” defining the organization’s objectives is a prerequisite to identifying risk.
Steps to Follow1. Identify which goals or objectives of the Campus Strategic Plan your area supports, if any.2. Identify your College, School, Division, or department’s strategic goals or objectives.3. Identify any major initiatives that your area is planning or engaged in, at the institution, College,
School, Division, or Department level.4. Identify the critical activities, functions, or services others rely on your area to provide.5. Identify any your area’s external context: legal/regulatory requirements, stakeholder perceptions
and expectations, and any relevant social, cultural, political, financial, technological, economic, or competitive factors.
Department of Safety & Risk Management
CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY MARITIME ACADEMY 10
Department of Safety & Risk ManagementHIRAC: Steps to Follow
Identify all the risks and opportunities you can that might affect your objectives (see Questions to Spur Thinking &Discussion, above).For each one, give it a short name or title.Write a brief “risk statement” that describes each risk oropportunity and provides a little more detail about itssources and causes. Do not include potential impacts orconsequences. Aim for a “Goldilocks” risk statement: not too short,
not too long; not too vague, not too detailed;meaningful but not inflammatory
Too vague: “IT infrastructure” Too specific/inflammatory: “IT network and
hardware is obsolete, resulting in the potential for loss of institutional business continuity, lossof irreplaceable data, and privacy breaches”
Just right: “IT infrastructure not maintained and/orupgraded to necessary standards
Consider whether each issue is, overall, a risk or anopportunity.Consider which University strategic goal and objectiveeach risk or opportunity affects or is most closely relatedto.Consider which University Strategic Initiatives Projectareas, if any, each risk or opportunity affects or is mostclosely related to.Consider other strategic goals or initiatives for yourDivision, College, School, or department that this riskor opportunity affects.Identify the responsible official for each risk oropportunity. This is the individual at Cal Maritime with the accountability and authority to manage the issue.

Department of Safety & Risk ManagementHIRAC: Risk IdentificationThe purpose of the risk identification step is to “generate acomprehensive list of risks based on those events that mightcreate, enhance, prevent, degrade, accelerate, or delay the achievement of objectives” (ISO 31000, 2009).
Questions to Spur Thinking & Discussion1. What could affect the institution or your area’s ability to achieve
or fulfill your strategic goals, initiatives, or key functions, either positively or negatively? What uncertainties do you face?
2. What risks or opportunities could your area or the institution facein terms of:
a. Compliance and Privacyb. Financesc. Health, Safety, or Legal Liabilityd. Human Capitale. Operationsf. Reputationg. Securityh. Strategic Issues
3. What do you see as the strengths, weaknesses, threats, andopportunities facing your area?
4. Have there been any recent major changes to your area ofresponsibility or control (new regulations, newprograms/activities, organizational changes, etc.) that posenew risks or opportunities?
5. Are there particular programs, activities, internal controls, orlegal/regulatory issues, in your area that worry you or you think may pose significant risk to your unit or the institution?
Things to Keep in MindBe as comprehensive as possible at this stage – identify everything you can.Identify positive events that could advance strategic goals(opportunities) as well as negative events that couldhinder attainment of those goals (risks).Include risks and opportunities regardless of whether or not they are “under your control.”Consider the risks associated with not pursuing anopportunity.Think about related risks and opportunities, and cascading orcumulative impacts.Involve the most knowledgeable people.Use the most relevant and up-to-date information you have

Department of Safety & Risk ManagementHIRAC: Risk Analysis
The purpose of the risk analysis step is to develop anunderstanding of the risk or opportunity in order toinform your evaluation and decision of whether aresponse is required. Here is where you will assess thepotential impact and likelihood of the risks andopportunities.
Things to Keep in Mind• Analysis can be qualitative, semi-qualitative,
quantitative, or a combination thereof.• Consider causes and sources, their positive and negative
consequences, the likelihood that they can occur, andother attributes of the risk or opportunity.
• Consider interdependence of different risks or opportunities and their sources.
Steps to Follow1. Consider which institutional risk “category” best fits each risk or opportunity:
compliance and privacy, financial, health/safety/legal liability, human capital,operations, operational, or strategic. (See Table 1, Risk Categories.)
2. Consider the potential impact of each risk or opportunity by using the risk andopportunity impact scales shown in Table 2 and 3. If more than one column of the scale relates to your risk, base your rating on the column that reflects the greatestimpact. This will likely be the column that also corresponds to the category of the risk.(For example, if you categorized your risk as a “financial” issue, you will likely use thefinancial column of the impact scale to determine your impact rating.)
3. Consider the likelihood that each risk or opportunity will occur by using the likelihood scales shown in Tables 4 and 5.
4. The impact and likelihood scores will be multiplied to produce an initial risk score foreach risk or opportunity.
5. If an issue presents both risk and opportunity (i.e., could have both positive and negative impacts), rate the positive/opportunity aspects of the issue using the opportunityimpact and likelihood scale. Multiply the impact and likelihood ratings to produce anopportunity score. Then consider the negative/risk aspects of the issue and rate it using the risk impact and likelihood scales. Multiply the impact and likelihood ratings toproduce a risk score. Compare your opportunity and risk scores: which is greater? Isthere more upside or downside to this issue? In the worksheet, enter whichever impactand likelihood ratings produced the higher score.

HIRAC: Hazard Analysis Tools: Activity Hazard Analysis Master LibraryJob Hazard Analysis (JHA) and Job Safety Analysis (JSA) are often used interchangeably. Some believe a JHA identifies the hazard where the JSA controls the hazards. JHA is the “macro” vies and the JSA is the “micro” view of the same basic hazard identification and control issues. A JHA is normally occurs less frequently, maybe every year and usually serves as the foundational element for a Safe Work Practice or Safe Operating Procedure type document. JSA is the document to be used in a daily format, similar to a Pre-Task Plan.
Safe Operating Procedures (SOP's) are written step-by-step procedures for a specific non-repetitive task which may be hazardous or critical
Pre-Task Plan (PTP's) similar to SOP’s in that they are written step procedures that define the scope, analyze hazards, develop control methods, and identified dynamics associated with the Plan on any given day. They are often used as briefing guides.
