6.4 The Safety Manager

To assist the Project Manager in ensuring that the requirements outlined in this procedure are
understood and are being implemented.

Provide technical input into JHA and shall review prior to its distribution.

Audit the task against the requirements specified to ensure compliance.

7.0 Procedure
7.1 General
The Project Management shall ensure that the resources and provisions are instituted for the effective
management of all anticipated hazards on the project.
The Site Construction, line management and supervision shall ensure that every work activity performed by the
project and its subcontractors, vendors and suppliers is executed in a safe and controlled manner. To accomplish
this, complete hazard identification, analysis and control effort shall be instituted for every basic activity or type
of work conducted.
The Safety Manager / department shall determine the hazards associated and evaluate the risks within the
activities of the department that is under his/her responsibility (for example, on the basis of the items and the
detail operations provided under work schedules).
The Safety Manager / department shall determine the officers in charge of performing the hazard determination
and risk evaluation in the defined activities or operations.
This process can only be effective when the actual supervision and worker responsible for specific work are
principals in the development of a specific hazard identification, analysis and control exercise.
The application areas shall be defined as much the activities group whose boundaries are explicitly specified as
possible (for example, excavation works, welding operations, concrete pouring, transportation, etc.). If
necessary, the working analysis might be performed in detail operations (like, digging works, embedded steel
bending, etc.)
Below application methods or combination of them could be used in hazard identification;
Hazards are based on :

Activity : driving, maintenance, working at height, etc

Location area : Clinic, Camp, storage, office, etc.

Equipment: Heavy equipment, sharp objects, lifting, compressor, generator, etc.

Chemical matter : H2S, paint, varnish, etc.

EFFECTIVE: 15.03.06

Prior to mobilization, the Safety Manager or equivalent shall ensure that the initial work processes have been
properly assessed and that all necessary hazard identification and analysis has been completed and control
programs prepared.
As work progresses, the Site Construction and Safety Manager or equivalent shall ensure that all hazard
identification and analysis has been completed and control programs and work procedures prepared prior to
commencement of each new task. Verification of such shall be through the Site Construction and Safety
Managers signature of concurrence on each specific risk control program form.

7.2 Hazard Management

Hazard management includes hazard identification, risk assessment and risk control processes.
The hazard identification, risk assessment and risk control processes should include following elements

Identification of hazards,

Evaluation of risks with existing (or proposed) control measures in place (taking into account exposure
to specific hazards, the likelihood of failure of the control measure, and the potential severity of
consequences of injury or damage),

Evaluation of the tolerability of residual risk,

Identification of any additional risk control measures needed,

Evaluation of whether the risk control measures are sufficient to reduce the risk tolerable level. (Ref:
OHSAS 18002:2000)

Control and tolerability of the risk is managed by defining certain rules/roles to the hazard source activities.
These management methods are:

Documentation of the rules/roles as procedures, instructions, signs, plan. etc.

Mechanical / technical controls

Using Personal Protection Equipment (PPE)

7.2.1 Identification of Hazards

The possible hazards shall be defined by taking into consideration each output, input or the application areas
separately. Any output, input or the application areas separately might have more then one hazards. In the course
of the definition of hazards, the items associated with the following main headlines shall be taken into account.

Activities/Groups

Excavations,

Works within enclosed areas or during nights,

Works at elevated heights,

Inputs

Use of electricity,

Use of construction machinery and equipment,

Hazard Analysis and Risk Assessment

Use of portable tools,

Chemicals or other hazardous substances, etc.

Lifting, loading, unloading, transportation

Working above or near water, etc.

EFFECTIVE: 15.03.06

Outputs

Hazardous chemicals wastes,

Construction works rubbles,

Auxiliary material wastes, etc.

All hazard identification and risk assessment process are documented on CPF-2.20 Hazard Analysis and Risk
Assessments form.

7.2.2 Risk Assessment

The degree of risks associated with the hazards provided under 5.2.1 shall be evaluated with respect to following
criteria taking into account current control measures. For very risks, grading shall be performed in connection
with assigned points.

Likelihood :

4
Frequent / continuous
3
Probable
2

High possibility. (it is possible during project. Its not ensured to control hazards
or control measurements may not be efficient. Failure of control measures is
frequent.)
Medium possibility (It is possible but unexpected. Faulire of control measures is
very small).
Low possibility (It is unexpected. There are enough control measurements)

Occasionally
1
Unlikely

So low possibility (Possibility is removed. There are strong control

measurements)

Severity :

4
Critic

Fatal accidents
Issues that lead to legal proceedings
Loss of organ, major bone cracks, serious injuries due to exposure to electricity.
The conditions that might lead to disorders in long and short term. The incidents
involving legal proceedings.

The accidents that leads to loss of working hours (brain trauma, serious twisting

of limbs, muscle bruises, minor bone cracks)

Small injuries, simple cases that call for first aid, open wounds, bruise of waist,
middle-level burns.
Small cuts and injuries, bruises, twists.
Unimportant losses.

Risk = Likelihood x Severity

Additional criteria might be included in addition to those given above in case of any necessity anticipated by the
Safety Managers and/or so obliged by the conditions of the prevailing country.
For the grading to be as objective as possible, the additional one or two grading performed by others might be
provided.
The final points shall be determined as the average of the grading performed by several officers. A reference
basis shall be established for the objective evaluation of the priorities via weighted averages of the final grading.
The data collected so far shall be reviewed by Safety Manager/department and related manager the final
priorities shall be established.

Yellow Area (Medium risk): Risk assesment result is in between 3-8.

Take Control Measurements + Reduce risk to tolerable level

Green Area (Tolerable Risk) : Risk assesment result is below 3.

These risks should be checked to control increasing of the risk possibility/severity in the future.
Tolerable risk!

7.4 Review and Re-Evaluation Period

The hazard determination and risk evaluation within SK shall be performed at least once every year. The
evaluation period might be shortened in case of

special incidents like any improvement in the application areas/groups (for example, the activities
like extension of Site Offices, commencement of new works, use of the equipment, replacement of
the personnel, new technology usage, etc.),

revision of legal requirements or

change of nonconformity likelihood/severity,etc.

The evaluation period might be performed either for example quarterly or biannually on account of the progress
of the works, i.e., establishing the new construction sites, using new equipment or can be associated to the
commencement or the completion of any specific items of work.
