Risk

A level of risk to one's life, health, property, or the environment is referred to as a hazard risk. The majority of risks are inactive or perspective, with just a theoretical chance of injury; but, when a hazard becomes active, it can create an emergency (D'Aleo, Stebbins, Lowe, Lees, & Ham, 2007).

Risk control

It is a method that employs risk assessment findings, which include evaluating potential risk factors in an organization's operations, such as specialised and non-specialized aspects of the business, financial strategies, and other concerns that may have an influence on the company's success (Aaron, 2018).

Question 11

SafeWork NSW. Safe Work Australia is a national policy organisation in charge of developing and evaluating model WHS legislation (the model laws), which include the model WHS Act.

In your own words explain each of the safe work design principles below.

You may like to research this information from the Guidance of the principles of safe design for work (May 2006), Australian Safety and Compensation Council, Canberra.

Principle 1: Persons with control
Plain English explanation
Individuals who make decisions should be educated and aware that their choices will influence the design of goods, workplaces, or cycles, allowing them to improve health and security at the source.
Principle 2: Product lifecycle
Plain English explanation
Safe planning applies to all phases of the existence cycle, from inception through eradication. It entails removing threats or reducing risks as early as feasible throughout the life cycle.

The health and community services industry employed 1.57 million people in 2011–12 (14% of the Australian workforce). Within this industry 91% of workers were classed as employees and covered by workers’ compensation. Employers in this industry paid 1.7% of payroll in 2011–12 to provide workers’ compensation coverage for their employees.

Fatalities

Serious claims

The preliminary data for 2011–12 show there were 19 248 successful workers’ compensation claims for serious injury or illness in the Health and community services industry. Over the five years from 2007–08 to 2011–12, the Health & community services industry accounted for 14% of all serious workers’ compensation claims. On average there were 50 claims each day from employees who required one or more weeks off work because of work-related injury or disease.

Falls, trips and slips of a person accounted for 18% of claims with most due to falls on wet floors indoors and falling over hazards in outside areas.
Being hit by moving objects accounted for 11% of claims with most due to being assaulted by persons or accidentally hit by people.

Figure 2: Serious claims: Incidence rates by jurisdiction

This fact sheet is intended to answer frequently asked employer questions and to give information about the workers compensation procedure, dispute resolution, and other relevant topics.

Happyville Garden Project – WHS Policy
Goals of the policy
The policy initiative, in particular, includes recommendations to safeguard the safety of both clients and staff in the Happy ville project. Its goal is to promote constructive efforts to aid community gardening at the Happy ville Garden Project. Maintain and provide safe plants and buildings. Provide and maintain safe working conditions. Ensure that plants, buildings, and substances are used, handled, and stored in a safe manner.
Responsibilities



Consultation process (regular and specific consultation)
The Happyville Neighbour House to effective consultation with workers and others on work-related health, safety, and injury-related issue.
Risk assessment process
During the risk assessment process, a risk matrix will be created to determine the chance of the hazards occurring and their impact. Determine the steps that must be taken to identify hazards, and solve the hazard issue as soon as possible.

Use the template below to write a manual handling procedure for the Happyville Garden Project.

Happyville Garden Project – MANUAL HANDLING PROCEDURE
Person responsible for developing, implementing and monitoring this procedure:
Health Safety Representative Staffs Management
Any enquiries relating to expert/technical advice to be directed to:
Health safety WHS manager
Definition of ‘hazardous manual handling task’
A hazardous manual handling tasks refers to the tasks that will require a person involved in the activities to lift, pull, push, or carry something from one place to another but at the same time get injuries, near miss or even death in the process of transferring the load.
Consequences for staff and clients for breaches of this procedure
Staff:
Any staff who will have found to have breached this procedure shall be required to undergo a one month’s training where they will learn how to handle the equipment for use.

If the clients had seen breaching the manual handling procedure they have to suffer with the musculoskeletal disorders, short-term and superficial injuries.
Safe work procedure – mowing

Wear appropriate PPE.

2. Examine the blades, blade bolts, and cutter assembly for wear or damage. 3. Before refuelling, always turn off the engine and let it cool.



Post operation
Park the excavator on flat, stable ground
Training
What training will be required before clients are able to work in the garden?
Before working in the garden, clients get induction training for manual digging practices, safe use of plants and equipment, and a general handbook. This type of information is provided in the training, such as which plants to cultivate in a particular season. They have also included machinery skills, budget management abilities, garden equipment, garden machinery usage, and stuff that you would require to complete a certain work. To operate a company, a gardener needs to have basic reading comprehension abilities as well as a strong desire to learn new skills such as bookkeeping. Learning new gardening techniques can also keep you up to date on current landscaping and gardening standards and trends. Clients must work as Garden or Nursery Labourers without official credentials; however, a certificate 2 or 3 in horticulture may be beneficial (Dupré, Lamine & Navarrete, 2017).
Consultation
What consultation processes are in place to monitor and review this procedure
To guarantee compliance with WHS standards, these rules should be developed in collaboration with employees and clearly define the roles and duties of management and workers in the safety management programme, such as knowledge on how to correctly use gardening equipment in the field.

What do I need to hand in for this task?	Have I completed this?
Completed WHS policy
Completed WHS manual handling procedure

Use the information in the case study above to complete the sections about each person involved in the accident.

Part C requires you to identify five actions that can be taken to minimise the risk of this incident occurring in future.

Happyville Neighbour House – Incident Report Form
PART A – to be completed by the employee
Name of employee: Johnny Gardiner
Time of accident/incident: 3pm	Date: 15 October 2016
Work area: Garden Project
Describe the hazard/detail what happened – include area and task, equipment, tools and people involved.

Possible solutions/how to prevent recurrence (do you have any suggestions for fixing the problem or preventing a repeat?)
I think Josh and Herriot should be banned from the neighbour house – or at least the Garden Project. They always behave like children even though they are both over 25! I also think there should be a supervisor close by to watch client behaviour.
