Prepare chemical / substance for use
Inhalation and contact with skin and eyes

Warn other site workers to keep clear of the
area and erect warning signs and barricading if
necessary.

Ensure all recommended PPE is worn when
handling the chemical and it’s container(s).

Ensure the work area is well ventilated with a
constant supply of fresh air and where fumes /
vapours cannot accumulate.

If pre-use mixing of chemicals is required,
ensure the recommended mixing ratio’s are
understood and strictly adhered to.

Utilise safe manual handling practices, including
the use of mechanical lifting and drum handling
aids and share lifting if required.

Ensure all recommended PPE is worn when
handling the chemical.

Ensure directions of use are followed.

Ensure the work area is well ventilated with a
constant supply of fresh air and fumes / vapours
cannot accumulate. Mechanical ventilation
(extraction or blower fans) may need to be
sourced to ensure fumes and vapours cannot
accumulate.

Do not smoke, eat or drink while using the
chemical.

EXAMPLE OF CONSEQUENCE
Minor Injury; low plant damage < $1,000; minor loss of productivity; no environmental impact
Medical Treatment Injury / Restricted Work injury; plant damage < $100K; interruption to
productivity; environmental release immediately contained
Extensive injury (LTI), plant damage $100K - $500K; loss of productivity 1 to 5 days; loss of
production; environmental release off site with no detrimental effects;
Permanent Disability; plant damage $500K - $1M; loss of productivity >5 days; toxic
environmental release off site with detrimental effect
Fatality. Losses in excess of $1M. Permanent off–site contamination

H = High risk Immediate action required, activity must not start or be stopped if started. Highest level of Management needs to be involved.
M = Medium risk Monitoring controls are required. Management responsibility must be specified.
L = Low risk.
Identify hazards and implement controls. Manage by routine processes. Ie inspections / observations
