ABSTRACT Attached to a construction company that is building a building located at Semenyih,

Selangor and Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment and Risk Control (HIRARC) has been carried out at the construction site. As known, construction industry is one of the industries that have been classified as the highest number that contribute to the accident and resulted fatal. This report aims to identify the hazard and risk assessment for the most critical hazard and recommend control measures and review measures for the construction and to archive the above objectives, the methods used to identify the hazard is by observation and risk assessment in the workplace. The results of above methods, the risk of the most critical safety hazards in at the site is crushed by heavy object while the most critical health hazard is exposed to extreme temperature(heat). Measure to control the risk of both hazards is suggested is based on hierarchy of control which is elimination, substitution, isolation, engineering controls, administrative controls and last but not least personal protective equipment’s (PPE)

to minimize, reduce and control the exposure

towards the hazards. Risk work activities interpreted by using risk tables (qualitative) and schedule risk assessment matrix (quantitative).

INTRODUCTION

2.1 COMPANY BACKGROUND S.N. Akmida Holding SDN BHD (SNAH) was incoperated in October 1984. SNAH is actively involved as a contractor in the Civil, Infrastructure and building construction. SNAH currently holds class G7 contractor license of CIDB Malaysia. SNAH also a PKK(G7) Bumiputra Status contractor and is credited with the government as fully 100% Bumiputra contractor. The company has completed and undertake projects worth more than RM880 million from both the government and private sectors. A full list of projects and the relevant details are available in the next page. With the current project banking facilities amounting of RM68 million and technical expertise more than 30 engineers, SNAH is now ready to explore and take up new challenges in the construction industry. SNAH has been awarded ISO9001:2000 Quality Management System certificates in 2006 and upgraded to ISO9001:2008 in early 2009 of recognition to our quality management system in the construction industry. Total of 6 months were taken for my internship program at one of the site that SNAH Company have which is at Town Park 6, Bandar Tun Hussein Onn, Cheras, Selangor. I was directed to the site that construct a condominium. UDA LAND SDN BHD is the client for build the condominium. Most of the time I was observing my supervisor conduct his task and gained some experience from it. Then, they teach us the way of the safety and health at construction

4 METHODOLOGY Methodology is the method that helps to accumulate all the information for the findings. Information about the work process, the potential risk and any existing hazard at the workplace. In this assignment, there are 3 types of methodology were used which are interview, observation, risk assessment steps, severity table, likelihood table and risk rating table. Hazard Identification Process Hazard identification process is the first step in the risk management process. Hazard is defined as anything that can cause harm to the workers, property of company, and environment. The purpose of identifying hazards is to determine any situation in the workplace that has the potential to harm the safety and health of people and damage the plant. The method that used to be obtaining data of the hazard in this report was; I.

Interview

Interview one of the staff has given any related information regarding the work process and the whole information about existing risk and potential hazards. The interview session was asking about; • • • • • •

The company background Any incident/accident have occurred Work process Work activity Any assessment have been made before Any existing control by the management

II.

Observation

Observed the workstation area and the work process to identify existing risk and potential hazards. The observation such as: • • • •

Observe the workplace Observe the work activities Observe any potential hazard Observe the lack of safety

III. Risk Assessment Risk assessment is usually conducted after a hazard identification process. The risk assessment consist the calculation of risk rating which is related to the hazard during the work process. . Hazard can be categorized into 2 types, safety hazard and health hazard. Safety hazard is hazard that can harm us in form of physical contact and can cause injury and property damages. Health hazard is hazard that can impose our health through the route of entries of human and can develop the occupational illnesses and poisoning in prolong time. With this types of hazard, we can assess through the risk rating method whether it impose to our safety and health or not during the working Process. Due to a big company, there is no record review was made. It is because this company did not have any record about any incident occurred to the workers. This company also never has any risk assessment. That is why three methods is more suitable and applicable for this assessment.

The Critical Hazard

Critical hazard is defined as the hazard which poses the highest risk rating in the Hazard identification, Risk analysis and Risk control of HIRARC FORM. This is to identify by calculating the risk which is likelihood multiply severity. In order to identify the value of the risk, use the risk matrix table to know the value lies at what stage and use risk rating table to determine the range of the hazard. They are two types of critical hazards such as safety critical hazard and health critical hazard. Most critical safety hazard Work activity: Injecting pile (crushed by heavy object) Engineering Control -Provide barricade to avoid other worker to enter piling work site -Place warning sign to inform other worker that piling work are being caried out Administrative Control -Provide training to all worker -Ensure person that handle piling machine is a competence person Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) -Provide proper PPE like safety helmet, safety boot and etc

17

Most critical health hazard Work activity: Welding Joint (heat) Engineering Control -Reduce the temperature and humidity through air cooling -Provide cool, shaded work areas -Provide air-conditioned rest area - Increase air movement if temperature is below 35°C (e.g., use fans) Administrative Control -Employer should assess the demands of all jobs and have monitoring and control strategies in place for hot days and hot workplaces -Increase the frequency and length of rest breaks -Schedule strenuous jobs to cooler times of the day -Provide cool drinking water near workers and remind them to drink a cup about every 20 minutes, or more frequently, to stay hydrated Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) -Provide proper PPE like protective clothing -Influence worker to wear light summer clothing should be worn to allow free air movement and sweat evaporation.

Benefit and conclusion Construction site is high risk workplace where the hazard everywhere and anytime can happen. Hazard identification, Risk Assessment and Risk Control can be used to control and eliminate the hazard at the workplace. Any person who exits the construction site must get working permit from authority person such as site supervisor or safety and health officer (SHO). Others than that, SHO and management need to know how to communicate and cooperate with the workers, sub-contractor and client at the construction site. The instruction must be clear and receive by everybody in site work. In conclusion, HIRARC procedures can identify the hazard thoroughly form the process of the work. After identification process, the risk assessment can be conduct to determine the risk rating base on the work activity and hazard come from it. The highest risk rating must be prevent first to reduce the number of accident occur. After that, the appropriate control measure must be implemented in order to increase the safety measurement during conducting works. Although the existing control measure is given, the efficiency and effectiveness of the existing control measures is not appropriate due to the hazard occur during the works process

19

Hazard identification and risk assessment will beneficial to the employer : - Recognize and control hazards in the workplace. 
