SAFETY SYSTEMS FOR

COMPANY WORKERS.

ARIFUL HASANROLL-124

Safety systems

Safety is an important aspect of any product or business activity, and in daily life everybody will have some idea of what safety means.

What does it mean that a product or process is safe?

Can anything be 100% safe? And if not, are there any criteria to

determine how safe a product or process should be?

The Practical Safety Process Steps

1. Identify Hazards & Assesses Risks2. Identify Desired People

Requirements3. Identify Compliance Requirements4. Ensure Safe Physical Work

Environment5. Develop Safe System of Work6. Assesses Competency7. Monitor & Review Performance

Safety barriers and risk reduction

According to Sklet (2006), factors that prevent transitions between phases in the accident sequence may be regarded as safety barriers.

The concept of safety barriers, which is often related to an accident model known as the energy model. The basic principle of the energy model, which was originally introduced by Gibson (1961), is to separate hazards (energy sources) from victims (vulnerable targets) by safety barriers (Haddon 1980).

The energy model, adapted from Haddon (1980).
