OHSAS 18001

What is OHSAS 18001 ? Created by concerted efforts of a number of the worlds leading national standards bodies, certification bodies, and specialist consultancies to remove confusion in the workplace by the introduction of a certifiable OH&S specification

Specification gives requirements for an occupational health and safety management system, to enable an organisation to control its OH&S risks and improve its performance.
Developed to be compatible with both the ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 management systems standards

OHSAS 18001 as Part of IMS

Integrated Management System
ISO 9001: 2000 ISO 14001: 2004 OHSAS 18001:1999 Quality Environment Safety & Health

OHSAS 18001
Similar to ISO 14001 Followed by a consortium of countries Indian Standard IS 18001

Road to OHSAS 18001 Certification An OHSAS 18001 certificate means that the system has been measured measured against a best practice standard and found compliant. Issued by a third party accreditation body / registrar. Certificate lets employees and other stakeholders know that the Company proactively protects the health and safety of your work force. Steps to be followed ? Obtain a standard (Done) Review literature and software (Done) Assemble a team and define your strategy (Done) Determine training needs(Done) Review consultant options (Done) Develop a management systems manual (Ongoing) Implement management system (Ongoing) Consider a pre-assessment (Being Done)

Definitions ? Accident: undesired event giving rise to death, ill health, injury, damage or other loss Critical Task: task which has the potential to produce major loss to people, property, process, and / or environment when not performed properly. Hazard: source or situation with a potential for harm in terms of human injury or ill health, damage to property, damage to workplace environment, or a combination of these. Improvement Programme: achieving its objectives. Management program for

Evaluation of risk
Risk rating score (RRS)
Risk essentially a combination of three factors
Number of people that could be affected Severity of likely injuries that persons could suffer Likelihood of harm actually occurring

Risk Rating = Number*Severity* likelihood

Risk Rating Score

No of people/ Exposure (N) 1-5 / 1 Occasional Exposure(yearly) 6-50/ Seldom 2 1 Exposure (Monthly/Weekly) 50+/ Public/ 5 Vulnerable Person/ Continuous/daily 3 Severity (S) Negligible < Rs 10,000/ Likelihood 1 (L) Improbable 0.5

Minor Rs 10,000 2,00,000/ Major Rs 2,00,000/ 5,00,000/

Remote

Possible

Likely

10

 Negligible Injuries. Cuts, abrasions,bumps Minor injuries. Injuries in time off work Major Injuries. Broken limbs, injuries to eyes, asphyxiation (In our case any injury with absence greater than 48 hours) Improbable. Possibility close to zero Remote. Unlikely Possible. Could occur sometimes Likely. No surprise that it will happen

Risk Rating Score < 10 risk acceptable unless cost or effort to control further is low 10 19 Risk is low. Action required to reduce risk, although low priority.Time effort and cost to be proportional to risk 20 49 Risk is medium. Action required soon to control hazards. Interim measures required to control risk 50 99 High risk. Urgent action required to control risk. Interim measures required in short term > 100 Unacceptable risk. Immediate action required to bring RRS below 100 before work can actually commence

Risk assessment should be reviewed at regular intervals to ensure that risk is properly controlled If the score is low due to effective measures in place, action must be taken to ensure that measures remain in place Example. A worker is using a metal casing electric drill in damp conditions. No checks made on the drill. The drill is old

Example. A worker is using a metal casing electric drill in damp conditions. No checks made on the drill. The drill is old
Risk Rating = 1* 10* 5 = 50
(1-5)*(Fatal)*(Possible)= High Risk

Control measures to prevent accidents. Check earth wires. Move operations to dry area. Planned maintenance of power tools Residual Risk Rating = 1*10*1 = 10
(1-5)*(Fatal)*(Remote) = Low Risk

 Example 2
A worker is trying to tie up reinforcement rods standing on top of a temporary platform at a height of 9m built over a pipe scaffold over an uneven ground. There are no base plates and a water drain flows near the base of the scaffold.

 Risk Rating Score 2*5*10 = 100

(1-5)*(Major)*(Likely) = High Risk

Remedial Measures Level The ground. Provide firm base with steel plates Provide a barricade around platform Increase width of platform to at least 60 cm Personnel to use safety belt from an independent anchor point Residual RRS 1*5*1 = 5
(1-5)*(Major)*(Remote) = Acceptable
