The following procedures and templates have been developed to assisting participants who are unfamiliar with developing risk control plans and conducting job safety analyses, with
Assessment Task 4 of their assignment.
The templates and risk matrix may also be useful for participants whose organisation does not have standard documentation in place.
Step 1 – Hazard identification
In consultation with your team, identify and document as many workplace hazards as you are able to. Measures you should use to support the hazard identification process include:

A workplace inspection

Encouraging your team members to report workplace hazards (formally or informally, in writing or verbally, individually or at a team meeting, etc)

Review of team member hazard reports submitted recently
As part of the hazard identification process, it is suggested you consider aspects such as 1 :

Where you work – the building, office, yard, driveway, tanks, roof, ladders, vehicles, exits, stairs, fire precautions, rubbish

What moves – forklifts, conveyors, blades, vehicles, boxes, people

What substances you work with – paints, solvents, degreasers, petrol, inks, toner, oils, plastics, acids, pesticides, gases, waste, cleaning agents

What equipment is used – machines, lathes, saws, hoists, electrical. Also consider radiation, noise, maintenance, repairs, personal protective clothing and other equipment

How and where these things are used – open air, confined spaces, closed room, lifting

The way you do things – systems of work, processes at work, the way you move heavy objects

Cleaning, maintenance and repairs – the way you dispose of rubbish, your procedure for dealing with spills
Document the hazards you have identified in accordance with your organisation’s procedures. If your organisation does not have any set procedures for documenting workplace hazards, you may wish to use the attached Risk Control Plan sample template.
Step 2 – Risk assessment
Conduct a risk assessment on each of the hazards identified in Step 1 2 . Please ensure you follow your organisation’s risk assessment procedures. If your organisation does not have any formal procedures in place, you may wish to use the sample risk matrix attached.
Alternatively, you may develop a risk matrix of your own.
1 This information obtained from the NOHSC publication Organising health and safety training needs for your workplace.
2 Note: Where you already have risk control measures in place for some identified hazards, it is suggested that you only assess the residual risk associated with those hazards (i.e., the remaining risk after the control measures have been taken into account).

Document your risk assessment (in accordance with organisational procedures) and include a copy of the risk matrix you used. If your organisation does not have any formal procedures for documenting risk assessments, you may wish to use the attached Risk Control Plan sample template.
It is suggested that you enlist the assistance of your team members and / or a health and safety specialist from your organisation for the risk assessment process.
Step 3
– Risk control
In consultation with your work team, develop strategies for eliminating or controlling each of the hazards you identified in Step 1. Your strategies should be consistent with the hierarchy of controls and any organisational requirements.
Where your preferred control measures are unable to be implemented immediately, you may need to adopt some interim (short term) control measures.
Document your risk control strategies in accordance with organisational procedures, or using the attached Risk Control Plan sample template.
Step 4 – Implementing risk control
Implement the risk control measures you identified in Step 3. Update your risk control documentation (from Step 3) to identify each of the control measures you have implemented.
As part of the implementation process, it is important that you provide your team with information on the hazards you have identified and the control measures that have been put in place to address them.
Step 5 – Evaluating risk control
Evaluate the risk control measures you implemented in Step 4 and make any adjustments / improvements you consider necessary.
Provide two examples of inadequacies you identified with risk control measures and how these were addressed. Your examples may refer to inadequacies in the risk control measures you developed and implemented in Step 3 and 4, or they may refer to inadequacies in the control measures that were already in place prior to the hazard identification process (Step 1).

1. Select an activity performed by your team members on which to conduct a job safety analysis (JSA).
2. Select a group of people to undertake the analysis. Where possible, the group should include people who are experienced with the activity. You may involve your entire work team, or a sub-group.
3. Break the activity down into its component tasks / steps.
4. For each task / step:
Identify any associated hazards
Assess the risk associated with each hazard (using your organisation’s risk matrix)
Identify measures to be used to control the risk
5. Test your job safety analysis by getting a team member to undertake the job in accordance with the outcomes of your JSA. If necessary, adjust your JSA based on the outcomes of the test.
6. Communicate the outcomes of your JSA to your team.
