1 Risk assessment in the Laboratory Environment Adam Coburn School Safety Advisor School of Chemistry and Chemical Biology UCD

2 Risk assessments What is a risk assessment? Why must they be done? How do I do a risk assessment?

3 Risk assessments Why?

4 Why? Legal requirement Shows time was taken to consider hazards Shows how you decided to protect yourself and others from harm

5 Legal duties of employers Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act (2005) - Every employer shall identify the hazards in the place of work under his or her control, assess the risks presented by those hazards and be in possession of a written assessment of the risks to the safety, health and welfare at work of his or her employees SHWW (Chemical Agents) Regulations (2001) - it shall be the duty of every employer to determine whether any hazardous chemical agents are present at the workplace and to assess any risk to the safety and health of employees arising from the presence of those chemical agents

6 Duties of employees SHWW (2005) An employee shall, while at work : comply with the relevant statutory provisions and take reasonable care to protect his or her safety and the safety of any other person who may be affected by the employee s acts or omissions at work. co-operate with his or her employer or any other person. make correct use of any article or substance provided for use by the employee at work or for the protection of his or her safety. report to his or her employer or to any other appropriate person any work being carried on which may endanger the safety of the employee or that of any other person.

7 Risk assess before commencing SHWW (Chemical Agents) Regulations (2001) - In the case of a new activity involving hazardous chemical agents, work shall not commence until after an assessment of the risk of that activity has been made and the preventive measures identified in the risk assessment have been implemented.

8 Risk assessments What?

9 What is a risk assessment?

10 Mental exercise Will this hurt me? How badly? Should I continue? How will I continue safely?

11 Written form Mental exercise but... Legislative requirement that:

12 Risk assessments How?

13 How? Identify hazards anything which can cause harm Assess the risks risk of harm to you and others Identify control measures What will keep you safe?

14 Hazards Anything that can cause harm Chemical Your knowledge of chemistry or read up on it Symbols: Hazard statements/risk phrases Physical Heat, cold, pressure, asphyxiant gases, etc Biological

15 Hazard (contd) Be aware of: OELV (Occupational Exposure Limit Values) LD50 (Dermal and inhalation) Breakthrough times of solvents for nitrile gloves Carcinogens, Mutagens, Reproductive toxins Consider using: Chemical reactivity worksheet Available at

16 Rating the risk Consider the possible negative outcomes Injury, ill health, damage to property Likelihood of negative outcome: Low, medium or high UCD: Unlikely - Likely - Very likely How often task is done

17 Risk Matrix

18 Rating the risk Severity of consequence: How bad could it get? Low, medium or high Slightly harmful Harmful - Very Harmful How many people could be affected

19 Risk Matrix Moderate risk consider further control measures Substantial risk - further control measures must be identified Intolerable risk - all work involving this hazard is prohibited.

20 Control measures Methods by which you will reduce the risk To yourself and to others Examples: Fume cupboard Wearing a lab coat Following an SOP Decide upon based on the hierarchy of controls

21 Hierarchy of controls Eliminate the hazard Substitute the hazard with one less hazardous Isolate the hazard/automate the task Use engineering controls Use personal protective equipment Use administrative controls

22 Examples Do not use Benzene Use alternative to Ethidium Bromide (CMR) Use a glove box or automate the task Use a fume cupboard or extraction Lab coat, safety glasses, gloves, etc SOPs, aseptic techniques, warning signs, etc

23 Control measures Will depend on the task Will also depend on the location Will be decided on by researcher Notes: Once control measures are defined they MUST be used Failure to do so renders the risk assessment useless

24 Emergency responses In the event of Fire, Injury, Spillage, etc Fire: Note responses (generally exacuation) May be specific depending on chemicals First aid: Note any special considerations Spills: Note any special considerations

25 Safety Data Sheets Not MSDS! In EU it s an SDS Legal requirement Every chemical in the lab must have an up-todate SDS in the lab/write-up room May be needed by Services, Emergency personnel or doctors

26 Vulnerable groups Pregnant Foetus very vulnerable Especially during 1 st 13 weeks Contact Safety Office for risk assessment Lone working!!

27 Lone working No one can hear you: Collapse (overcome by fumes, oxygen depletion, etc.) Shout for help No can help you: Bandage a cut Wash out your eyes Put out a fire (especially if you re on fire)

28 What should it look like? No set way Nothing in any legislation ID hazards Rate risk ID controls

30 Hazards Controls Risk Rating Splashes of solvents onto skin, eyes or mouth. (DCM suspected carcinogen) Solvents igniting. Work carefully. Chiller connected to rot.evap. outflow No sources of ignition in working area. Moderate

31 Hazards Controls Risk Rating Splashes of solvents onto skin, eyes or mouth. (DCM suspected carcinogen) Solvents igniting. Work carefully. Chiller connected to rot.evap. outflow No sources of ignition in working area. Moderate
