    Blank Risk Assessment Template

    Uploaded by

    Anuj Gupta
    This document summarizes a plant risk assessment. It identifies several potential hazards from the plant including entanglement, crushing, cutting, shearing, electrical shock, explosion, friction, striking, slipping, tripping, falling, suffocation, high temperatures, ergonomic issues, high pressure fluids, and other hazards. For each hazard, it asks whether people could be injured from that hazard and provides some examples of risks to evaluate. The overall document contains assessments of multiple hazards to evaluate risks from the plant and ensure appropriate controls are in place.

    Hazard Identification
    Entanglement
    Can anyones hair, clothing gloves, necktie, jewellery, rags and other materials become entangled with moving parts of plant, or materials in motion ? For example, on the lathe is there a micro switch to cut the power off when the guard to the pulley system is opened ?

    Yes

    No

    Cutting, Stabbing and Puncturing


    Can anyone be cut, stabbed or punctured by coming in contact with moving plant or parts, sharp or flying objects, work pieces ejected, work pieces disintegrated or other factors not mentioned? For example, are all guards in place ? Are there push sticks ?

    Yes
    Shearing

    No

    Can anyones body parts be cut off between two parts of the plant, or between a part of the plant and a work piece or structure? For example, on a metal guillotine can a finger fit under the guard ?
