Identify any hazards that could affect your employees' health and safety today!
One way of ensuring your company identifies any hazards
and assesses risks to your employees' health and safety
is to do a complete and proper risk assessment
of your workplace, says the Health and Safety Bulletin
By identifying the risks, you'll be able to take preventative and precautionary measures to minimise or prevent any health and safety hazards that could harm to your employees.
And conducting a risk assessment will also put you in the all-clear with your Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA) obligations.
But that doesn't mean risk assessment has to involve lots of time, money or effort.
Here's how to incorporate continuous risk assessment into your health and safety officer's daily tasks
The best type of risk assessment to identify any new hazards in the workplace that could affect your employees' health and safety is a continuous risk assessment.
The Health and Safety Bulletin
explains that a continuous risk assessment
is an informal risk assessment
performed on an ongoing basis.
Your health and safety officer or manager will observe employees performing their tasks as part of his daily responsibility.
From this observation, the risk related to the specific performance of the task is assessed and the supervisor will be able to stop the employee from continuing the task should it present too high a risk to his health and safety.
There you have it – an easy way to incorporate continuous risk assessment
into the day to day running of your business!
