Moral, general legal and financial arguments for ALL actions


Moral, general legal and financial Safety precautions on oil rigs are morally significant as they protect workers, increase
arguments productivity, and prevent environmental disasters. Employers have a moral obligation to
provide a safe workplace, and society also benefits from a safe environment. Inadequate
safety measures can result in severe consequences and should be avoided.
Safety precautions taken on oil rigs are of utmost legal importance. The law mandates that
employers provide a safe working environment for their employees. Negligence in safety
measures can result in legal liabilities, such as lawsuits, fines, and regulatory penalties.
Hence, compliance with safety regulations is a legal obligation for oil rig operators.
Safety precautions taken on oil rigs have significant financial importance. Failure to ensure
safety can result in work-related accidents, injuries, and even fatalities, leading to legal
liabilities and compensation costs. Moreover, unplanned shutdowns and production losses
due to safety incidents can have severe financial consequences for oil rig operators. Hence,
prioritizing safety measures is crucial for maintaining operational efficiency and financial
stability. Also, instructions from ILO have been considered to enhance the safety standards.

Justification for action 1
Action (Taken from column 4 of risk Show Zero-tolerance policy for the onsite smoking.
assessment)

Specific legal arguments At an oil rig, displaying a zero-tolerance stance for on-site smoking is acceptable for a
number of reasons. First of all, smoking presents a serious fire risk, especially in a risky and
flammable environment like an oil rig. A little cigarette spark could start a fire, which could
have disastrous effects such as causing injuries, deaths, and environmental catastrophes.
Second, smoking poses a risk to both smokers and non-smokers’ health. Workers on an oil
rig are exposed to a variety of harmful substances, such as benzene and other carcinogens,
which may worsen the harmful consequences of smoking. A smoke-free workplace
encourages a healthier atmosphere for employees and lowers the possibility of health-
related legal action.
Third, it's frequently against the law and industry standards to smoke at work, and breaking
these restrictions could result in legal obligations, such as fines and regulatory penalties. A
zero-tolerance policy for smoking helps to ensure that employers are adhering to their
legal obligations to offer a safe and healthy workplace.
Consideration of likelihood AND Types of harm or illness: Smoking raises the danger of flames, which can result in fatalities,
severity serious burns, smoke inhalation, and other health issues. Smoking has been linked to a

reduce their liability in the event of criminal activity or other incidents that may result in
harm to employees or visitors.
Patrolling guards can also serve as first responders in emergency situations such as fires,
medical emergencies, and natural disasters.

Learner number: 00757282 Learner name: Muhammad Adeel Page 35 of 41


Depending on the industry and location, there may be regulations or laws that require the
presence of patrolling guards or other security measures.
Patrolling guards can also serve as first responders in emergency situations such as fires,
medical emergencies, and natural disasters. Their presence can help to quickly identify and
respond to these situations, potentially saving lives and minimizing harm.
Overall, the legal arguments for hiring patrolling guards centre around the duty of care,
prevention of crime, compliance with regulations, liability protection, and emergency
response. Employers should carefully assess the risks in their specific setting and determine
whether hiring patrolling guards is an appropriate measure to mitigate those risks.

explosions in the first place.

Learner number: 00757282 Learner name: Muhammad Adeel Page 36 of 41


How widespread the risk is: Fires and explosions on oil platforms can pose a major risk to
workers as well as to the environment and surrounding communities. Therefore, it's
important to prioritize safety measures and invest in effective training and emergency

The effectiveness of patrolling guards in controlling the risk of fire and explosion depends
on the frequency and quality of patrols and the training and experience of the guards. It is
important to ensure that guards are adequately equipped and trained to recognise
potential hazards and respond appropriately to incidents. The effectiveness of this measure
must be continuously monitored and evaluated to ensure that the risk is fully managed and
that new or emerging risks are identified and addressed.

Learner number: 00757282 Learner name: Muhammad Adeel Page 37 of 41


Specific legal arguments Health and safety regulations mandate that oil rig personnel receive specific instruction and
training. Employers have a responsibility to make sure that their employees are equipped
with the skills and information needed to complete their tasks safely. Accidents, injuries,
and fatalities may result from workers' lack of understanding or inadequate training.
Specialised education and training can be made available to help prevent such events and
guarantee legal compliance. Additionally, it is a legal need for companies to give workers a
safe workplace. This involves ensuring that employees have the necessary training to
complete their jobs safely and without endangering other people or themselves. Legal
action may be taken if insufficient training is not provided. Furthermore, because workers
are better prepared to perform their jobs, specialised training and education can also help
to increase production and efficiency. Additionally, because they feel more knowledgeable
and secure in their responsibilities, it might increase the employees' motivation and job
happiness.

they might not completely manage it. It may also be required to take further steps
including routine equipment maintenance, safety inspections, and the implementation of
safety policies and procedures. To control the risk of electrical hazards and guarantee the
safety of personnel on an oil rig, however, specialised training and education must be made
available.

Suggested word counts for each section:
• Planned review date or period and reasoning for this: 50 - 100 words
• How the risk assessment findings will be communicated and who needs to know the information: 100 - 150 words
• Follow up on the risk assessment: 100 - 150 words.

Learner number: 00757282 Learner name: Muhammad Adeel Page 39 of 41


Planned review date/period with 14th April, 2024 is the date when we will assess the particular education and training
reasoning programme for electrical work on an oil rig. This enables evaluation of the program's
efficacy and the identification of any potential improvement areas.
Reviewing the training's effectiveness in practical settings entails getting feedback from
participants. Any events or near-misses involving electrical risks should also be examined to
find any potential flaws.
The frequency and seriousness of the hazards on the oil rig, as well as any modifications to
rules or standards that might have an impact on the training programme, justify the review
period. It is crucial to make sure the training programme is current and in accordance with
our best practices and industry standards.
How the risk assessment findings will Workers: The training programme's direct impact on workers necessitates that they are
be communicated AND who you informed of any risks discovered and the measures being taken to mitigate them. Workers
need to tell also receive feedback on their performance during training.
Management: As they are responsible for implementing the training programme,
management needs to be informed of any risks identified and the actions being taken to
mitigate them. Any necessary modifications to the programme also need to be
communicated to them.
Health and safety representatives: These individuals represent the interests of employees in
matters relating to their health and safety, and need to be informed of any risks discovered
and the actions being taken to mitigate them.
Regulatory organisations: These organisations, such as OSHA or the Health and Safety
Executive, may require reporting of any identified hazards and the steps being taken to
address them.
How you will follow up on the risk Plan frequent meetings with management to assess progress and pinpoint any problems or
assessment to check that the actions areas that need fixing. During this, the program's implementation will be discussed, and any

Conduct routine site inspections to monitor and evaluate how the training and education
programme is being put into practise. The efficacy of the programme in reducing the risks
found in the risk assessment will be evaluated by these inspections.
Make sure that personnel have received the training and education programme, and
evaluate any employee comments to determine the program's effectiveness.
Examine any electrical work-related accidents or events on the oil rig to see if the training
and education programme has successfully decreased the risks listed in the risk assessment.
Review the risk assessment on a regular basis to see if any operational or technological
changes call for a review of the training and education programme. In case of incompliance
