🔥⚠️ *Understanding Risk = Hazard + Exposure* ⚠️🔥
1. What is Risk?
Risk = Likelihood × Severity (hazard + exposure).
2. *Examples of Workplace Risks*
- Working at height (fall risk)
- Fuel spill (fire risk)
- Moving machinery (crush risk)
- Confined space (asphyxiation risk)
- Poor housekeeping (trip risk).
3. *Risk Levels*
- Low risk → minor injury unlikely.
- Medium risk → possible injury.
- High risk → serious injury or fatality possible.
4. *How to Control Risk*
- Eliminate the hazard.
- Substitute with a safer alternative.
- Use engineering controls.
- Implement administrative controls.
- Use Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
The slogan is “Identify the Risk Before It Identifies You.”
"Identify the risk before it identifies you! 🚧👷♂️ Know the difference between hazard & risk, assess workplace dangers, and control them with PPE & safety measures.
