The Challenge
#HFMC17
Start with a Risk Assessment
- Identify hazards
- Identify where access is required
- Identify the tasks requiring work at height
Defining the Options & Engaging Stakeholders
Risk Assessment
- Desktop
- Stakeholder
involvement Design Internal Review
- Technical
Director / design Team External Review
- Stakeholders
Delivery
#HFMC17
- Clarity is the secret
- Simple and visual
- Match images and
risk ratings
Report
#HFMC17
- Rank the risks
- Establish parameters
- Be consistent
Risk Matrix
Likelihood Severity A: Very Likely B: Likely C: Unlikely D: Very Unlikely 1. Catastrophic High High High Medium
- 2. Major
High High Medium Medium
- 3. Moderate
High Medium Medium Low
- 4. Minor
Medium Medium Low Low
#HFMC17
- Driven by the risk assessment
- Frequency of access
- Capability
- Reasonably practicable
Design
#HFMC17
- Legislative requirement
- Reduces risk
- Saves $’s
