Instructions for using the HIRARC form

Header Fill up all sections in the header of the HIRARC form.

Note 1: Discuss with your supervisor/reporting officer on the next review date for the HIRARC . Normally the next review
date is up to one year ahead. The
HIRARC is also reviewed: (1)
When there are changes in work processes/activities (2)
After any accidents/incidents Note 2:
Check your Division rules about team or individual submission for HIRARC

Column 1b Describe the work activity to be carried out. Note:

Please do not fill in names of machines/equipment to be used.

Column 1c Identify hazard(s) associated with the activity to be carried out.

Examples of hazards include chemical, biological, electrical, mechanical, physical, ergonomics, psychosocial, slip & fall etc.

Column 1d Identify possible accidents/ill health associated with each identified hazard.
Examples of possible accidents/ill health include fires, explosions, cuts, burns, frost bites, fractures etc.

Column 2a Indicate risk control measures that are already in place to eliminate or minimise risks.
Methods to control risks may be analysed according to the Hierarchy of Controls: Elimination, Substitution, Engineering
Controls, Administrative Controls and Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
Elimination of the hazard should take first priority while PPE should be the last line of defence.
Elimination
Example: Use water
based solvents instead of organic based solvents
Substitution
Example: Use a less toxic solvent
Engineering Controls
Example: Use of fume cupboard or gloves boxes
Administrative Controls
Example: Work instructions. Good laboratory practices. Training on proper use of
chemicals PPE
Example: Use of safety eyewear plus respiratory
protection, use of gloves
Column 2b S=Severity
Severity is the degree or extent of injury or harm caused by the hazards, or as a result of an accident. Choose the most likely
severity from a value between 1 and 5, rather than the most extreme. Refer
to the Risk Matrix tab for the severity table

Column 2c L=Likelihood
Likelihood of occurance of an accident, incident or ill health is defined as the probability that the said accident, incident or
ill health will happen. Choose the likelihood from a value between 1 and 5. Consider the records of such events happening in
the past when deciding on the likelihood. Refer
to the Risk Matrix tab for the likelihood table

Column 2d RPN=Risk Prioritisation Number

RPN=Severity X Likelihood All
RPNs should not be more than 6

Column 3a Additional risk control measures are required when the RPN indicated in column 2d exceeds 6. If
the RPN is 6 or less, enter "NA" in the column

Column 3b S=Severity S may

reduce upon introduction of additional control measures

Column 3c L=Likelihood
L may reduce upon introduction of additional control measures

Column 3d RPN=Risk Prioritisation Number

RPN will reduce upon introduction of additional control measures

Column 3e Enter the name of the person appointed to oversee the implementation of the additional control measures.
Enter the follow-up date.

Column 3f Enter any remarks
