Welcome to the Hazard Management Book

This award-winning book provides an essential guide to hazards management. It addresses:

• The steps required when using the Hazards and Risk Management (HARM) Process;
• The eight types of hazards that can cause harm in workplaces and homes;
• The "bow-tie" concept that helps people control hazards appropriately;
• The Hierarchy of Control concept to ensure people select the best available controls; and
• Correct definitions of terms to help Employees and Supervisors start to use the "same language" in risk management conversations.
  

The book demonstrates how the HARM Process is used to control hazards and minimise risks in 63 everyday workplace activities. Activities include those commonly found on operational sites, in mines, during road transportation, and office-based and home tasks.

For each fully illustrated activity, the book provides a step-by-step guide to help employees and supervisors to develop an appropriate Job Hazard Analysis (JHA).
