CH. 1 - RISK AWARENESS

WHAT IS RISK?

RISK IS – The chance of an unwanted event or outcome.The possibility of a hazard developing.A potential source of danger or injury.

“RISK “ means the possibility of a hazard developing which can cause –Bodily Injury Property damage Environment damage.

Some undesirable effects of ignoring Risks onboard –Grounding, Collision, Fire, Explosion, structural damage, FounderingInjury, Fatality, Cargo Damage or Contamination

GWS 6April 22, 2023

CH. 2 - RISK ASSESSMENT

DEFINITIONS

HAZARDS or THREATS: are conditions which exist and may lead to unwanted outcome.

CONTROLS: are measures taken to prevent hazards from causing unwanted outcome. These could be Physical, Procedural or related to Human Issues.

EVENT: is an occurrence that has an associated outcome. There can be many outcomes from a single event and these can be trivial to catastrophic depending on other conditions.

RISK: is a product of frequency with which an event is anticipated and the consequence of the event’s outcome. RISK = FREQUENCY X CONSEQUENCE

RISK ASSESSMENT: is the process of gathering data and processing information to understand the risk of a particular enterprise. This is used to address Financial, Health, Safety, Environment or Human related risks. The basic questions asked are – What can go wrong? – How likely is it? – What are the impacts?

RISK MANAGEMENT: is the way an event is handled or controls put in place, to minimise or remove the risk of an unwanted outcome.

WHAT IS RISK ASSESSMENT?

A risk assessment is simply a careful examination of what, in your work, could cause harm to people, so that you can weigh up whether you have taken enough precautions or should do more to prevent harm.

Accidents and ill health can ruin lives and affect your business too if output is lost, machinery is damaged, insurance costs increase or you have to go to court.

You are legally required to assess the risks in your workplace so that you put in place a plan to control the risks.

Risk assessment can be –1) Quantitative2) Qualititative

GWS 8April 22, 2023

CH. 2 - RISK ASSESSMENT - TYPES

Quantitative risk assessment

Quantitative Risk Analysis (QRA) is the determination of the probability and consequences of potential losses in numerical terms.

The assignment of probability values to the various events in the risk model provides for a quantitative assessment of risk.

An important aspect of risk assessment is the estimation of the associated uncertainty. Therefore, the process may be completed through the use of statistical models such as probability analysis, Poisson distributions or Bayesian theory.

These statistical models require the use of past data and assumptions about future trends. Much of the data may be accumulated from different sources.

GWS 9April 22, 2023

CH. 2 - RISK ASSESSMENT - TYPESQualitative risk assessment

Critical aspects of risk frequently require qualitative evaluation.

Qualitative risk analysis may use “expert” opinion to estimate probability (or frequency)

and consequence (or impacts).

Based on expert judgement different qualitative consequence categories can be defined in terms of for example high, medium, low, etc. The same can be done for qualitative probability categories in terms of expressions as likely, may occur, not likely, very unlikely. This subjective approach may be sufficient to assess the risk of a system, depending on the decisions to be made and available resources.

Concerning qualitative uncertainty estimates, one has to rely on subjective estimates of uncertainty.

RISK EVALUATION METHODS


CH. 2 - RISK ASSESSMENTHow to assess the risks in your workplace

Step 1Identify the hazards

Step 2Decide who might be harmed and how

Step 3Evaluate the risks and decide on precautions

Step 4Record your findings and implement them

Step 5Review your assessment and update if necessary

■ a hazard is anything that may cause harm, such as chemicals, electricity, working from ladders, an open drawer etc;

■ the risk is the chance, high or low, that somebody could be harmed by these and other hazards, together with an indication of how serious the harm could be


CH. 2 - RISK ASSESSMENT – STEP 01Identify the hazards

First you need to work out how people could be harmed. When you work in a place every day it is easy to overlook some hazards, so here are some tips to help you identify the ones that matter:

■ Walk around your workplace and look at what could reasonably be expected to cause harm.

■ Ask your employees or their representatives what they think. They may have noticed things that are not immediately obvious to you.

■ Check manufacturers’ instructions or data sheets for chemicals and equipment as they can be very helpful in spelling out the hazards and putting them in their true perspective.

■ Have a look back at your accident and ill-health records – these often help to identify the less obvious hazards.

■ Remember to think about long-term hazards to health (eg high levels of noise or exposure to harmful substances) as well as safety hazards.


CH. 2 - RISK ASSESSMENT – STEP 02Decide who might be harmed and how

For each hazard you need to be clear about who might be harmed; it will help you identify the best way of managing the risk. That doesn’t mean listing everyone by name, but rather identifying groups of people (eg ‘people working in the storeroom’ or ‘passers-by’).

In each case, identify how they might be harmed, ie what type of injury or ill health might occur. For example, ‘”Engine staff may suffer long term hearing loss due excess noise in the machinery spaces”

Remember:

■ some workers have particular requirements, eg new and young workers, over-weight and people with disabilities or blood pressure may be at particularrisk. Extra thought will be needed for some hazards;■ Surveyors, visitors, contractors, maintenance workers etc, who may not be in the workplace all the time; ■ if you share your workplace, you will need to think about how your work affects others present, as well as how their work affects your staff – talk to them; and■ ask your staff if they can think of anyone you may have missed.


CH. 2 - RISK ASSESSMENT – STEP 03

•Evaluate the risks and decide on precautions

•Having spotted the hazards, you then have to decide what to do about them. •The law requires you to do everything ‘reasonably practicable’ to protect people from harm. You can work this out for yourself, but the easiest way is to compare what you are doing with good practice.

•■ Can I get rid of the hazard altogether?•■ If not, how can I control the risks so that harm is unlikely?

•When controlling risks, apply the principles below, if possible in the following order:

•■ try a less risky option (eg switch to using a less hazardous chemical);•■ prevent access to the hazard (eg by guarding);•■ organise work to reduce exposure to the hazard (eg put barriers);•■ issue personal protective equipment (eg clothing, footwear, goggles etc); and•■ provide welfare facilities (eg first aid and washing facilities for removal of •contamination).

•Involve staff, so that you can be sure that what you propose to do will work in •Practice.



•Record your findings and implement them

•Putting the results of your risk assessment into practice will make a difference when looking after people and your business.

•Writing down the results of your risk assessment, and sharing them with your staff, •encourages you to do this.•. •When writing down your results, keep it simple, for example

•‘Tripping over rubbish: •bins provided, staff instructed, weekly housekeeping checks’, or

• ‘Fume from welding:• local exhaust ventilation used and regularly checked’.


Review your risk assessment and update as needed

Few workplaces stay the same. Sooner or later, you will bring in new equipment, substances and procedures that could lead to new hazards. It makes sense, therefore, to review what you are doing on an ongoing basis. Every year or so formally review where you are, to make sure you are still improving, or at least not sliding back.

Look at your risk assessment again. Have there been any changes? Are there improvements you still need to make? Have your workers spotted a problem? Have you learnt anything from accidents or near misses? Make sure your risk assessment stays up to date.

When you are busy operating your ships, it’s all too easy to forget about reviewing your risk assessment – until something has gone wrong and it’s too late. Why not set a review date for this risk assessment now? Write it down and note it in your diary as an annual event.

During the year, if there is a significant change, don’t wait. Check your risk assessment and, where necessary, amend it. If possible, it is best to think about the risk assessment when you’re planning your change – that way you leave yourself more flexibility.



CH. 2 - RISK ASSESSMENTThe risk assessment does not have to be perfect, but it must be suitable and sufficient. You need to be able to show that:

■ a proper check was made;■ you asked who might be affected;■ you dealt with all the significant hazards, taking into account the number of people who could be involved; ■ the precautions are reasonable, and the remaining risk is low; and■ you involved your staff or their representatives in the process.

A good plan of action often includes a mixture of different things such as: ■ a few cheap or easy improvements that can be done quickly, perhaps as a temporary solution until more reliable controls are in place; ■ long-term solutions to those risks most likely to cause accidents or ill health;■ long-term solutions to those risks with the worst potential consequences;■ arrangements for training employees on the main risks that remain and how they are to be controlled;■ regular checks to make sure that the control measures stay in place; and

■ clear responsibilities – who will lead on what action, and by when.Remember, prioritise and tackle the most important things first. As you complete each action, tick it off your plan.



Simply put, Risk Assessment determines – •What can go wrong?•How likely is it to go wrong? (PROBABILITY or LIKELIHOOD)•What will happen if it goes wrong? (SEVERITY or CONSEQUENCE)•What gets affected? (Injury, Property damage, Environment , Reputation etc).

Requirements of Risk Assessment –As per ISM Code, the Safety Management objectives of a company should –•Provide safe practices in ship operations and a safe environment.•Establish safeguards against all identified risks.•Continuously improve safety management skills of persons onboard and ashore

Expected outcome of Risk Assessment –•Minimise risk to people, property and environment•Improve Operational performance and reliability•Protection of Asset•Uphold the market reputation and expectations of stakeholders.


CH. 3 – RISK IMPACT EVALUATIONLIKELIHOOD

Definitions for Likelihood of Harm (Personnel)

Very Likely - Typically experienced at least once every six months by an individual.

Likely - Typically experienced once every five years by an individual.

Unlikely - Typically experienced once during the working lifetime of an individual.

Very unlikely - Less than 1% chance of being experienced by an individual during their working lifetime.


CH. 3 – RISK IMPACT EVALUATION SEVERITY

Definitions for Severity of Harm or Potential severity of harm - When establishing potential severity of harm, information about the relevant work activity should be considered, together with:

a) part(s) of the body likely to be affected;

b) nature of the harm, ranging from slight to extremely harmful:

1. slightly harmful (e.g., superficial injuries; minor cuts and bruises; eye irritation from dust; nuisance and irritation; ill-health leading to temporary discomfort)

2. harmful (e.g., lacerations; burns; concussion; serious sprains; minor fractures; deafness; dermatitis; asthma; work-related upper limb disorders; ill-health)

3. extremely harmful (e.g., amputations; major fractures; poisonings; multiple injuries; fatal injuries; occupational cancer; other severely life shortening diseases; acute fatal diseases)

Determining The Risk Rating


CH. 3 – RISK IMPACT EVALUATION - RISK LEVELVery low - These risks are considered acceptable. No further action is necessary other than to ensure that the controls are maintained.

Low - No additional controls are required unless they can be implemented at very low cost (in terms of time, money, and effort). Actions to further reduce these risks are assigned low priority. Ensure that the controls are maintained.

Medium - Check if the risks can be lowered, to a tolerable level and preferably to an acceptable level. The risk reduction measures should be implemented within a defined time period. Arrangements should be made to ensure that controls are maintained, particularly if the risk levels area associated with harmful consequences.

High - Efforts should be made to reduce the risk. Risk reduction measures should be implemented urgently within a defined time period and it might be necessary to consider suspending or restricting the activity, or to apply interim risk control measures, until this has been completed. Arrangements should be made to ensure that controls are maintained, particularly if the risk levels are associated with extremely harmful consequences and very harmful consequences.

Very high - These risk are unacceptable. Substantial improvements in risk control measures are necessary so that the risk is reduced to a tolerable or acceptable level. The work activity should be halted until risk controls are implemented that reduces the risk so that it is no longer very high. If it is not possible to reduce the risk, the work should remain prohibited.


CH. 4 - RISK MANAGEMENT

WHAT IS RISK MANAGEMENT?

Risk Management is the process where decisions are made to accept a known or assessed risk and measures are put in place to minimise the consequences or probability of an unwanted occurrence. This process minimises the chance of failure and requires a structures risk assessment as an input.

There are two main approaches to risk management –1 – Prescriptive approach2 – Risk based approach

Shipboard Risk management can be active (preferred) or re-active (after the incident).

The Active or pro-active risk management has sufficient checks and controls in place to prevent an occurrence.The Reactive risk management identifies the causes of incident and puts steps in pace to prevent recurrence.

EFFECTIVE RISK MANAGEMENT REQUIRES EFFECTIVE RISK ASSESSMENT.

MINIMISING RISK IMPROVES PERFORMANCE AND SAFE OPERATIONS.

CH. 4 - RISK MANAGEMENTRISK BASED APPROACH

RISK BASED APPROACH

The Risk based management approach takes into account the consequences and the likelihood of a large number of possible accident scenarios.

The decision “to do” , or, “not to do” a job depends on the calculation of overall risk which is the product of consequence x frequency . The job can be done if the result is brought down to an acceptable or tolerable risk level by putting mitigating circumstances.

RISK = CONSEQUENCY X FREQUENCY

Advantages –Provides systematic way for appraisal of major riskQuantifies both consequences and frequenciesConsiders a wide range of scenarios.

Disadvantages – Complicated, time consuming and requires expertise and experienceUncertainties present in all relevant steps and final results

CH. 4 - THE RISK MANAGEMENT PROCESS


CH. 5 – HAZARDS - DEFINITION

What is a hazard?

A hazard (when referring to Health and Safety) is –

Any source of potential damage, harm or adverse health effects on something or someone under certain conditions at work.

Basically, a hazard can cause harm or adverse effects (to individuals as health effects or to organizations as property or equipment losses).

Sometimes a hazard is referred to as being the actual harm or the health effect it caused rather than the hazard. For example, the disease tuberculosis (TB) might be called a hazard by some but in general the TB-causing bacteria would be considered the "hazard" or "hazardous biological agent".

Work Place Hazards are defined in the next slide.


CH. 5 – HAZARDS – MORE EXAMPLES

Workplace hazards can come from a wide range of sources. General examples include any substance, material, process, practice, etc that has the ability to cause harm or adverse health effect to a person under certain conditions.

Table 1fallsProcessWeldingMetal fume feverPracticeHard rock miningSilicosis

As shown in Table 1,

The above are few examples. Workplace hazards also include practices or conditions that release uncontrolled energy like:an object that could fall from a height (potential or gravitational energy),a run-away chemical reaction (chemical energy),the release of compressed gas or steam (pressure; high temperature),entanglement of hair or clothing in rotating equipment (kinetic energy), orcontact with electrodes of a battery or capacitor (electrical energy).

CH 6 - RISK ASSESSMENT AND MANAGEMENT - GWS

Risk assessment is a detailed and systematic evaluation of all real and potential sources of danger and must be carried out for all new and non routine tasks on board and also during Management of change process.

Risk assessment for routine jobs:

Risk assessments for routine jobs are retained onboard and can be reused as long as they are properly reviewed and updated to ensure if any significant changes are identified.

Where there is no valid risk assessment, a risk assessment must be produced prior to commencing the work.We have prepared a library of common risk assessment jobs which are onboard all vessels. The risk assessment from the library can be used as long as the job undertaken remains the same.Each time prior to carrying out the job the HOD and the responsible person will discuss in the tool box meeting whether the job scope remains as available onboard in the RA Library.If the conditions and scope are changed then a risk assessment has to be carried out as per our manuals. If at any time during the job, the work scope or conditions change, or any further hazards are identified, the work shall be stopped and the Risk Assessment FORM OS-0401 is to be sent to the office for review.


CH. 6 - RISK ASSESSMENT AND MANAGEMENT - GWSAll further safeguards have to be put into place prior to commencing the work.The risks are to be reassessed and if the risk level is still found to be more than low, then company’s approval has to be obtained.

Tasks requiring risk assessment using FORM OS-04011. For new or non routine task.2. If circumstances change while carrying out routine tasks or present risks of high

nature as medium, high, extreme nature.3. It is physically impossible to fully comply with the requirements in a stated

procedure or other recognized source of guidance/regulation. 4. Previously used safeguards may not be reasonably practicable in this case.5. For cases 1 to 4 above, if the risk at any stage is more than low, then the

risk assessment FORM OS-0401 shall be sent to the office for approval (work shall not be started).

For conducting hot work in any area other than designated area, or for life boat / rescue boat lowering into the water, risk assessment form shall be sent to the office irrespective of the level of risk.

For routine work covered under RA Library onboard, this has as to be updated ( hazard compliance record), daily for the RA used. This shall serve as a record of the RA used for daily routine tasks.

CH. 7 - CASE STUDY EXAMPLE - NAVIGATING IN WATERWAY

1. Operating Scenario: Navigating in a waterway

2. Hazard Identification: Tidal changes and water depth / Underwater objects / Local shipping traffic and other ships / Current / Bridges, Buoys and other fixed structures / Weather and visibility etc.

3. Preventive measures: System reliability is provided by Rules through equipment design checks, system redundancy, periodical surveys etc. / Risk assessment can be done to ensure effective system reliability and improvements by preventive maintenance program, pre waterway entry check, crew standing by in engine room, all generators put on line etc.

4. Hazardous state or events: Loss of propulsion (This could lead to collision or grounding which could lead to other consequences such as pollution, blockage of waterway, foundering etc.

5. Consequence – mitigating measures : Some waterways have mandatory requirements such as tug-escort, Risk analysis can be done to provide for emergency preparedness such as – standby with anchors, additional crew on standby for restoring propulsion etc.
