3 Overview 3 You will learn how to use Prevention through Design (PtD) methodology and new RA Tools. You will take away a downloadable PtD Risk Assessment tool which successfully identifies three NIOSH and OSHA case studies relevant to current issues within construction safety and health. The purpose of this presentation is to demonstrate the use of the PtD risk assessment tool. Safety, Health and Environmental (SH&E) professionals have to learn how to incorporate PtD principles into projects, design, and re-design phase.

4 RA Quotes People who don t take risks generally make about two big mistakes a year. People who do take risks generally make about two big mistakes a year. Peter F. Drucker A ship is always safe at the shore - but that is NOT what it is built for." Albert Einstein 4

5 Why RA & RM? 5 Value of the Profession ASSE must tell the story of what we do and the value we provide to organizations. While regulatory standards will always be part of OSH programs, we deliver the greatest value to our organizations and clients when we use our technical knowledge to identify and assess risks, then apply our business skills to develop and communicate effective solutions Progressive organizations do not hire professionals to achieve basic compliance. They hire us to influence the policies, systems and programs that are needed to protect the organization s employees, assets and viability. We do this best by focusing on identifying, assessing, reducing an communicating with our corporate leaders in terms of risk. Risk Communication is key!!!

6 Why RM? You don't have a true and overarching safety strategy. Your safety strategy was developed in a vacuum (silo approach) You have antiquated equipment that is unsafe to operate at optimum speeds. You have developed the mindset in your workers that safety is the enemy of productivity.??? Your flawed safety culture reinforces this division between safety and productivity. 6 Source:

7 Traditional Risk Management 7 Traditional RM is often associated with entrenched silos. Safety professionals were very often separated from financial and strategic risk decisions. Safety function was very often considered separate or part of operations. Human resources typically managed the turnover rate, hiring, benefits and absenteeism. Lean Six Sigma function managed productivity and quality. Accounting managed financial records, business transactions, cash flows and accounts payable. All these functions or departments had their own management structure and very rarely worked in synergy. ERM integrates safety risks with operational, financial, and strategic risks and it encourages an understanding of their relationships and synergistic effect.

8 RM Models -ARM 8 Hazard Risk Financial Risk Operational Risk Strategic Risk ERM Hazard risk Example: Insurable risks. Injuries & Illnesses, Property damage, Natural catastrophies Financial risk Financial losses, Pricing risk, Asset risk, Currency risk, Liquidity risk Operational risk Employee error, System failure, Process interruption, Customer satisfaction, Product failure, Integrity, Knowledge drain Strategic risks Competition, Social trend, Reputational risk; $$$ availability (GM & Chrysler 2008)

9 RM Models Generally, risks to the Company s success can be grouped into four categories: (1)Strategic, (2) Operational, (3) Compliance and (4) Financial & Reporting 9 J&J ERM: Source: 15a-678b-d85b-a1da-779f4cfe0000

10 OSH and Risk Management integration 10 Strategic Risk Compliance Risk This ERM methodology integrates safety into Enterprise Risk Management.

14 PtD RA Tool Overview 14 The PtD tool highlights a 4-step approach to risk assessment: Most importantly, this tool requires the user to develop balanced process and a logic based risk assessment methodology designed to engage the participants through the hazard assessment and risk prioritization process.

15 Why PtD Risk Assessment Tools? 15 ANSI/ASSE Z Prevention through Design standard addresses occupational safety and health needs and RA methodologies ANSI/ASSE/ISO (Z ) Risk Management Standards Package - This standard provides principles and generic guidelines on risk management. ANSI/AIHA/ASSE Z : The standard defines minimum requirements for an OSHMS. It also includes risk assessment components not previously included. ISO OSHMS also includes risk assessment components.

22 Risk Assessment Process and the PtD Model 22 As illustrated in the previous slide and Figure to the right, the two standards are similar in the process steps with a few differences. Comparisons of Risk Assessment in ISO 31000/ANSI Z690.2 and ANSI Z590.3

27 Hand-Operated Grinders: Identify Tasks and Hazards 27 Silica Dust: Activities that may produce crystalline silica dust include jack hammering, rock/well drilling, concrete mixing, concrete drilling, and brick and concrete block cutting and sawing. Electric and pneumatic hand operated grinders used for surface finishing and cutting jobs may produce silica dust. Sources:

28 Hand-Operated Grinders: Identify Tasks and Hazards 28 Vibration Hazards: Extent of Exposure Based on a 1974 study of occupational exposures to vibration, NIOSH estimates that 1.2 million workers in the United States are potentially exposed to handarm vibration Source:

29 Hand-Operated Grinders: Identify Tasks and Hazards 29 Noise: According to OSHA Prolonged exposures to loud noise can lead to a gradual, but permanent, loss of hearing. Current State controls: Source:

30 Hand-Operated Grinders: Identify Tasks and Hazards 30 Employees produce dusts containing silica when they grind on concrete and similar materials. Data compiled by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) indicate that, among employees who grind concrete, most are exposed to silica at levels that exceed OSHA s benchmark of 0.1mg/m³ (milligrams of silica per cubic meter of air) Source:

41 Conclusion 41 Risk Assessment is a critical component of ANSI/AIHA Z-10, ANSI/ASSE Z , and PtD standards. Through the use of the PtD risk assessment, newly designed power tools, and improved controls can successfully reduce injuries and illnesses within construction industry. Additional steps: Cost-benefit analysis can demonstrate the need for tool replacement and highlight financial and non-financial benefits.
