Example Of Safety Risk Management Report

Mining Engineering is one of the most profitable industry. Mining increase country economy, by the way the energy sources are extracted. But when it relates to risk that may occur, it can bring an unexpected problem to higher level. As we know, mining engineering pays a lot of attention to safety key points. Usually materials, which miners work with were not engineered. They have been modified through decades. Working with known large sources doesn’t contribute any new inventions due to respect of materials. When equipment is good enough, the only thing that matters is how you work with it. Mining different energy sources always brings any kind of risk, it might be small, but unfortunately it still exists. One of those risks are hazards with long term effects (Dust inhalation, toxic chemicals, radiation and noise): it means, that some hazardous substance will cause chronic effect, which will appear a long time after the exposure was occurred, and unfortunately will persist over time. Risk always exist and mining industry need to focus on fatalities, as it is one of the major problems, that mining industry face nowadays. There are two hazard identifications: magnitude of hazards and non-existed hazards. One of the main reasons why the risk is underestimated is to map all the potential contributors to an event and thereby clarify the interrelationship of the various models of failure and event outcomes. As we refer to risk, it can be explained as likelihood, that an event will occur and then consequences which follows by that. Risk of likelihood of event occurring can be reduced with control effectiveness and consequence usually follows because of magnitude of hazard (risk source). Incidents or unwanted event, which will certainly happen can be successfully suppressed with type level controls. Typically the level of risk is determined by how good the controls are, as well as the magnitude of the hazard/driving force. Sadly to acknowledge but more people are dependent on least effective hierarchy of controls. Before considering starting a new work, you should always ask yourself this questions: Is the equipment are obligated to use and located in right place? Does it applies automatically or you have to put some force prior to it? Does it work in right way, is there any problems with it? Following these risk managements can prevent most of the accidents and save your and other people lives. As we analyze Ontario Mining Industry plots and statistics, we can tell that total mining injury rates (total medical injuries per 100 FTE workers) decreased from 8.5 to 5.3 from 2003 to 2012, which is actually good. Gold mine operations, nickel mine operations and diamond drill/mine contracting have the highest rates of med aid injuries. Statistics show, that critical injuries were caused by this categories: Slipping and fall of the person, powered haulage/ transportation off site, unconsciousness, rockbursts, sliding materials. Occupational disease claims are typically because of respiratory system: Cancer (53%) and Disease (36%). From the information given, we can conclude that every risk is based on human factors and security measures. Following strict rules will evade any kind of risk to you and other co-workers.
