Safety and Risk Management
How do we define Safety? What does Risk Management mean?In the context of safety learnings, we will focus on serious injury & fatality prevention capability (SIFPC) and associated risk management first. When focusing on fatalities, we specifically need to better understand life-threatening hazards in the workplace.- Fatality risks must be managed separately from injury risks.
- Fatality prevention requires strict verification of Critical Controls.
- Measuring Injury metrics is good for injury prevention.
- SIFp needs to be measured & managed to prevent fataities.
- A strong FRM system ensures no critical control is missing before work starts.S – SIF Prevention → Prioritize life-threatening risks.
A – Awareness of SIF Hazards → Identify fatality potential.
F – Fatality-Focused Critical Controls → Embrace critical controls.
E – Effectiveness of the System → Ensure critical controls work.
