Any assessment must be SUITABLE and SUFFICIENT

3. WHAT IS A RISK ASSESSMENT? A hazard is something that has potential to cause injury to personnel, or damage to the environment or equipment That something may be equipment, an activity, a condition, or a work method A risk is the likelihood of a hazard actually causing injury or damage Risk Assessment is simply the process in which we identify risks, and assign controls to eliminate or reduce these risks to an acceptable level The residual risk should be As Low As Reasonably Practicable

4. OTHER RISK ASSESSMENTS Many jobs come complete with their own form of risk assessment in the shape of JHA and Job Safety Plan Any job covered by a permit will include a JHA and Job Safety Plansupplied by the PTW Originator More complicated jobs will have a Formal Method Statement However all the above assessments have a fundamental weakness…. Unlike TRIC, none of the assessment processes mentioned above involve all the work party in identifying risks on site

5. WORKSITE HAZARD & RISKS As a result, other assessments do not take into account the unique characteristics of a work site, and its environment No two jobs are exactly the same No two work sites are identical; each work site will present different hazards The same work site can present different local conditions on different days, or even at different times in the same shift Typical examples of this are: Changes in weather and wind direction Presence of another work party Differences in lighting between day and night Changes in the process e.g. a pump running

6. TRIC TALKS – BEST PRACTICE (1) The Talk Leader should be the Permit Holder A ‘TRIC’ talk will only take about 10 minutes Be disciplined at the ‘TRIC’ don’t get side tracked In an ideal world, every TRIC talk would be held on site. However in certain circumstances, environmental conditions make this difficult High noise levels remote locations, extreme weather conditions and the need to wear SCBA are common examples In such cases it is acceptable to hold the TRIC talk off site at the station or PTW issue point

7. TRIC TALKS – BEST PRACTICE (2) However, no TRIC should be conducted without a visit to the work site by the team at some point in the TRIC process Regardless of location, it is essential that all personnel involved in the task attend the TRIC, and that it is held in a location where there are no distractions (so don’t use the tea shack) Communication within the team must be easily carried out The TRIC talk should be an interactive session, not a lecture from the talk leader The aim at the end of the talk, is to identify all the risks, and ensure that everyone in the work party is aware of the work plan, his responsibilities and the what to do in an emergency (Safety Plan)

8. TRIC TALKS – BEST PRACTICE (3) The Permit Holder will ‘refresh’ the TRIC with his work party at the start of each following day The Permit Holder will ‘sign his initials and date’ the TRIC each following day to show the TRIC has been refreshed No need for the Area Authority / Area Operator to attend the TRIC for continuing work on following days – PTW work party only required

10. Card details Section Activity location Attendees etc. Ongoing Hazard Awareness. If the job or environment change, the hazards could change. Think about “What has changed since the job started” Hazard / Risk Management. Get the participants to think about hazards that they may have seen at the worksite Hazard / Risk Management. Use these symbols to prompt discussion on the possible hazards that may be encountered.

11. The reverse side of the card provides space for detailing the Task Risk Assessment.

12. Break the job down into steps What are the hazards associated with each step of the task? i.e. What can go wrong ? What controls are required. ie.What can be done to stop it going wrong. Who in the work party is responsible for ensuring the control is in place – i.e. a named individual Each person with a responsibility initials that he understands that responsibility Discuss the Life Saving Rules and the consequences of not following them Remember to note down any thing anyone has learned from the job for the future

13. Let’s look at an example.

14. We are going to carry out some high pressure water cleaning • If there is a JSP already prepared, use it in the TRIC talk In this instance the TRIC becomes “your” RISK ASSESSMENT.

15. SO; before we carry out the work we have the TBT and take a final look at the task to see if there are any hazards that could be identified before we continue.

17. Let us start with the steps involved in carrying out the work.

18. JHA-13.1 351234 High Pressure Water Jetting Carry out HP water jetting in Water Inj. Pump Area – T-1234 Drain Line Never leave gun unattended while under pressure.In event of station alarm, depressurise gun before leaving. Unattended equipment. Steve KennedySteve Kennedy Follow precautions in SHOC Assessment. Occupational health risk from chemicals. John Haggerty Soak up as much oil as possible using rags.Area Tech to highlight any open drains. Tom HalliburtonTom Halliburton Water mist (activating F&G system leading to station trip). Area Tech to assess work site and arrange inhibits as required. Tom Halliburton Damage to plant (especially instrument air compressors). Area Tech to highlight any vulnerable items.Avoid pointing gun in these directions. Steve KennedySteve Kennedy

19. JHA-13.1 351234 High Pressure Water Jetting Segregate and bag waste at worksite Incorrectly segregated waste Steve Kennedy Clean-up worksite and rig down equipment And last but by no means least, is there anything that we can learn after having carried out the job? Manual handling Injuries Follow Controls of Manual Handling Assessment John Haggerty Some jobs may have multiple steps, or activities. Untidy Worksite Remove all debris from Worksite Remove all equipment from Worksite Remove barroers and inform Permit Coordinator Steve KennedySteve Kennedy Steve Kennedy Inhibits left on Inform Control Room that operation is complete – PTW controls Steve KennedySteve Kennedy

20. That is TRIC. Simple, reasonably straight forward and provides you with a means of assessing (if no JSP available) and reviewing (if JSP available) task related HAZARDS. However, the job may change as it progresses, and things may start to go wrong, so……

21. STOP Remember, everyone has the right to stop a job if they have a safety concern A good TRIC - Talk will identify all risks that exist prior to starting the job Many incidents are caused by a failure to recognise change The TRIC - Talk Leader should use ‘Pause & Check’ to re-assess the TRIC at regular intervals – update the TRIC in the Dynamic Risk review on the front of the card
