SITE SAFETY ASSESSMENTS
The Health And Safety at Work Act 1974 sets out general duties which employers have towards employees and members of the public.
The
`as far as is reasonably practicable' principle balances the degrees of
risk against time, trouble, cost and physical difficulty of providing
methods either to avoid or reduce the risk.
Integrated Site Safety Assessment
An integrated site safety assessment pro-actively considers:
materials, machinery, management, working environment, workforce and other people.
This can be achieved by the establishment of:
- Recognised safe working practices to control risk
- Methods for maintaining such systems, including monitoring and feedback
- Emergency procedures
- Studies into the effects of any uncontrolled risk on all employees, the site, the environment and site production/output etc.
