QUALITATIVE RISK ASSESSMENT IN AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRIES

Fire & Safety Engineering

A risk assessment is involves identifying the hazards present in any working environment or arising out of commercial & work activities, and evaluating the extent of the risks involved, taking into account existing precautions & their effectiveness. Hazards Identification and Risk Management is a structured technique in which a multi-discipline team performs a systematic study of a process to minimize risk level. An unsafe condition action or situation. Risk is the probability of frequency of hazards during a certain period (e.g. 2 explosions per year, 20 fires per year, 5 accidents per month, 200 fatalities per year, 1 disaster per 10 years etc.) Therefore if hazard is identified and removed first, risk is automatically reduced. in automobile industries melting of alloys is very hazards process. All experts of departments studying in group discussion for to identified hazards as risk of process with work activity with required documents such MSDS,P&ID, accident date, process flow diagram etc. The benefits of risk assessment to prevention of accidents, incidents, ill health & their associated costs. Legal compliance. Reduction in claims & complaints. Reduced insurance premiums. Allows financial planning of progressive risk reduction measures. Involvement of staff in process encourages consultation, increases hazard awareness and ownership & contributes to positive H&S culture. May also increase quality standards, efficiency & productivity.
