Hazard Identification. The Employer shall identify in writing in all appropriate languages, new or presently used chemicals, substances or equipment present in the work area including hazards or suspected hazards, precautions and antidotes or procedures to be followed following exposure.
Hazard Identification. (a) The safety and health representative for all offices and supervisor (at least one [1] of each) evaluates all office equipment, work areas and work procedures for every job in each workplace to identify potential sources of harm to workers. This must be done at least once annually (fiscal year end March 31) and whenever there is a change in office equipment, work areas or work procedures.
Hazard Identification. Hazard identification is the process of determining whether an increased incidence of a particular health condition (cancer, birth defects, etc.) will occur due to the presence of a particular contaminate. Hazards are identified based on sampling and analysis of site soils, groundwater, surface water, air and soil vapor. Proposed activities that could potentially cause release of contaminants are also identified and evaluated. Physical, chemical and toxicological characteristics of identified
Hazard Identification. Hazard identification describes the adverse effects of the substance, the possibility of causing an adverse effect as an inherent property of the chemical, and the type (age group, gender, etc.) and extent of the population that may be at risk. Because sufficient human data from epidemiological studies are often not available, risk assessors frequently rely on results from toxicological studies in experimental animals and in vitro studies.
Hazard Identification. A wide range of biological hazards can cause food-borne illness. Long-familiar hazards include microbes, viruses, parasites and toxins of biological origin, but new hazards are continually being identified, such as Escherichia coli O157:H7, the prion agent of BSE, and multi- antibiotic resistant strains of Salmonella. In a given case, a risk profile may have identified specific strains or genotypes of pathogens that pose risks in a particular situation, and assessment may focus on these.
Hazard Identification. The SAR shall include the results of the safety evaluation based on the cell and battery level testing and be presented in the following tables:
Hazard Identification. While the previous section described the experience of the community to hazards and disasters, this section gives more information on the threats of various hazards that they may occur. Hence, other hazards not yet experienced that may affect them in the future were included in the list. Each barangay came up with the list of hazards that may bring negative consequences to their community, the summary of which is shown in the table below and also shown in Figure 3 for spatial comparison and analysis. It is, however, important to point out that there could be hazards that may also give high probability of occurrence but not identified in one barangay because of limited time to foresee all hazard events and also because the participants opted to prioritize most important hazard for them. Table 3 - Hazards Identified in the municipality of Quezon, By Barangay Climate related hazards top the list of hazards identified by the communities. This is not to mean however, that other hazards are of less importance. An example of this is the armed conflict, which when left unchecked may escalate into a more serious hazards greater in negative impacts than the climatological related hazards. Mining is another hazard that poses greater threat if not checked early on. Figure 3 - Hazard of the Municipality of Quezon Interestingly, flood and drought ranked number 1 in terms of the occurrence as all or 100% of the barangays have hazards that occurred and may continuously occur in their barangay. Typhoon, La Nina, and landslide are similarly related weather events that may have something to do with the climatic condition of the locality especially in so far as the frequency and intensity has been increasing over the years. This apparent change has been attributed to the changes in the climate due to global warming that has been established by the international scientific community especially at the Inter governmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Other hazards identified, however do not mean they are of less importance. The fact that they were identified in certain, although not in all barangays, their impact may not necessarily be confined in their respective barangays only. Therefore, it is important to pay considerable attention to each and every hazard identified so as to determine the appropriate course/s of action to manage, if not to avoid them. Mining for example is a case in point which can bring far reaching negative impact not only to the ecosystem but to the so...
Hazard Identification. The Employer shall identify in writing in all appropriate languages, new or presently used chemicals, substances or equipment present in the work area including hazards or suspected hazards, precautions and antidotes or procedures to be followed following exposure. and Concerning Health Hazards and Work The Committee shall conduct such investigations as may be necessary to determine the circumstances surrounding work injuries and health hazards arising. Such investigations shall be conducted in the presence of Committee members. Reports of these investigations shall be submitted to the Committee as well as to the Union Representativeand the Employer, who may request further information from the who conducted the investigation. If the Employer receives a copy of the report of injury it shall be passed on to the Union.
Hazard Identification. The hazards associated with proposed work shall be identified and documented. Intent: The first stage in the risk management process is to identify all hazards and threats that are relevant for biorisk. It is useful to involve the whole work team in this process and to use inputs from organizational experts on safety and risk management. A hazard may be a physical situation (e.g. a fire or explosion), an activity (e.g. pipetting), an external condition (e.g. weather, individuals who could steal and/or misuse materials or information) or a material (in this case the principal hazard is most likely to be a biological agent or toxin, but others will include chemicals, radiological materials and asphyxiating gases such as nitrogen). The essence of a hazard is that it has the potential for causing harm, regardless of how likely or unlikely such an occurrence might be. Biological hazards and threats should be identified and assessed in relation to their potential damage to humans, animals, and the environment and requires knowledge of the facility, operational practices and experience of personnel. Generally, this identification process requires a multidisciplinary risk management team that relies on information and guidance from internal or external experts on safety, security, and risk management. Conducting a hazard identification exercise should also involve a review of legal and regulatory requirements, and a review of applicable guidelines and organization's codes of practice. This legal review will assist in identifying materials that are required by law, regulation, or guidance to be controlled within the facility. Where hazardous materials are classified into hazard or risk groups based on international and/or foreign country classification schemes local diverging needs and constraints should be considered.
Hazard Identification. The Concessionaire shall develop and implement a hazard identification analysis and resolution process, which shall be consistent with FTA's Hazard Analysis Guidelines for Transit Projects Report #DOT-FTA-MA-26-5005-00-01 and FRA's Collision Hazard Analysis Guide: Commuter and Intercity Passenger Rail Service and FRA's Approach to Managing Gap Safety. During the Operating Period, the Concessionaire shall use this process to minimize or eliminate potential hazards, support early hazard identification, integrate safe operating procedures into operations and maintenance, and provide for constant and continuous safety evaluation and assessment. The Concessionaire shall track all hazards and provide a quarterly Hazard Management Report to RTD. [CDRL #10-20]
