Procedure for carrying out HSE risk assessment
Procedure for carrying out HSE risk assessment
Purpose
The purpose of this procedure is to ensure that work with risk assessment of the working environment at NTNU is carried out in a good way.
Scope and anchoring
The procedure applies to all units and employees at NTNU.
Definition
See Guidelines for risk management and risk assessment related to HSE for definitions related to this procedure [in Norwegian].
Carry out risk assessment
NTNU has established a digital form for HSE risk assessment in EQS. In EQS, you will be able to find explanatory text by pressing "question mark".
Training and definitions
- Risk assessment as a method (Video presentation) [in Norwegian]
- Review of form "HSE risk assessment" in EQS (Video presentation) [in Norwegian]
- Definitions [in Norwegian]
Important clarifications before carrying out a risk assessment
Goal
-
What do you want to find out?
Background
- Why do you want to carry out a risk assessment? Legal requirements, deviations, routine, etc.
Description and limitations
- Who is affected by what is to be risk assessed ? NTNU, the unit, external or others.
- Are there previous risk assessments or other documentation that can be used as a starting point?
- Refine the risk assessment so that it is as concrete as possible. The delimitation can be physical/geographical, or there can be delimitation in time, resources, or which activities/processes are to be included as well as which consequences are to be assessed.
Assumptions, assumptions and simplifications
- Describe any special assessments you may make initially.
Participants
Risk assessment should be carried out by more than one person. Clarify who will participate in the risk assessment and who will have read access to the risk assessment.
Examples of relevant participants in a risk assessment:
- Academic responsible/project manager
- Expert / subject specialist
- Foreman, chief engineer, department engineer
- Safety representative
- HSE coordinator
- Local radiation protection coordinator
- Employee representative
- Student representative
- Representative from the occupational health service, for professional assistance in working environment issues
- Representative from Eiendom, for assistance with building matters
- Representative from organizations that share work premises with NTNU, for example SINTEF
- Others, for example line manager
It is important to involve people with knowledge of what is to be assessed and those who are affected by the risk assessment.
Risk assessment and action plan
- Carry out the risk assessment by following the steps in the EQS. Click on the "question mark" for guidance along the way.
- When the risk assessment has been carried out, you are often left with several proposals for measures. It is important that the unit carries out a thorough assessment and prioritization of which measures are to be carried out, when and by whom. It will often not be possible to carry out all the measures at the same time, due to e.g. available resources and finances.
- When it has been decided which measures are to be implemented, a new assessment is made of the probability and consequence of the various unwanted events.
- Measures can be sent to the person who is to implement them through EQS. Follow the steps described in EQS. It is recommended that you clarify this with the person to whom you are sending measures, before this is done.
- Even after implementing measures, one is often left with a "residual risk". This cannot exceed what is accepted by the line manager. See also Guidelines for risk management and risk assessment related to HSE [in Norwegian].
Closing and disabling risk assessment
The risk assessment should be closed when it is unlikely that changes will be needed in the near future (discretionary assessment). Closure can be done by the risk manager (the person who created, or has been granted rights to, the risk assessment). When closing, a comment must be entered in EQS. The risk assessment (risk element) can be reopened if necessary.
A risk assessment, which is no longer relevant, e.g. risk assessment of a work that is completely finished should be deactivated . This is so that the risk assessment does not appear as "noise" among the other, active risk assessments.
Closing or deactivation can be done at the top left of the screen when the relevant risk assessment is open.
Copying of risk assessment
A risk assessment can be copied. This can e.g. be applicable if similar work, as described in the risk assessment, is to be carried out elsewhere. You will then get most of the fields, except for the analysis part itself - which has to be done again. Copying the risk assessment requires that you have read access to the relevant risk assessment.
- Open the risk assessment, to be copied
- Click on "Actions" - "Register new risk on the same form" to copy the risk assessment, in the menu on the left.
