ANALISIS RISIKO KECELAKAAN KERJA METODE HIRA (HAZARD IDENTIFICATION AND RISK ASSESSMENT) DI PT. X

The HIRA (Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment) method is a process of identifying hazards that occur in all company activities, then conducting a risk assessment of the hazards that occur. Introduction: Based on the initial survey conducted at PT. X, it was found that there were work accidents such as pinched hands, cuts, entanglement in processing machines which caused the risk of accidents. This research was conducted at PT.X in February-August 2021. Methods: This study used a descriptive qualitative method. This study analyzes the risk of work accidents using the HIRA (Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment) method which aims to identify hazards and conduct a risk assessment of these hazards. The research informants were 6 people consisting of 2 key informants and 4 main informants. Results: The results showed that there were 44 types of hazards from 8 work stations at PT. X. Among them, 16% have a small risk of harm (trivial), 38.6% have a tolerable risk, 34.1% have a moderate risk of harm, 4.5% have a substantial risk of harm, 6, 8% have an intolerable risk of harm. Conclusion: Risk analysis is a process by which hazards are identified and risks are estimated to assess the damage caused with the likelihood of damage occurring.

Carcinogenic and Non-carcinogenic Health Risk Assessment of Heavy Metals in Njaba River, Imo State, Nigeria

Daily exposure to potentially toxic elements (heavy metals) through the oral ingestion of water has been a major concern to human health due to its detrimental effects. Studies focusing on health risk assessment of potentially toxic elements in surface and ground waters have been conducted, but none has been reported in Njaba River. Few studies conducted have focused only on the assessment of its water quality. Therefore, this study assessed the carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic effects of the potentially toxic elements (As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn) in Njaba River. Overall, a total of 135 water samples was collected for this study and were analyzed using Agilent FS240AA AAS. The potentially toxic elements concentrations were: As (0.015±0.001 to 0.021±0.001 mg L-1), Cd (0.006±0.002 to 0.018±0.002 mg L-1), Cr (0.027±0.001 to 0.074±0.001 mg L-1), Cu (0.016±0.002 to 0.033±0.001 mg L-1), Ni (0.031±0.001 to 0.053±0.002 mg L-1), Pb (0.050±0.002 to 0.092±0.001 mg L-1), and Zn (0.061±0.002 to 0.097±0.002 mg L-1). As, Ni and Pb recorded concentrations above their respective maximum permissible limits. Physicochemical parameters were appraised using the American Public Health Association standard method (APHA). The evaluation of the carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic health risks of the analyzed elements was carried out based on the guidelines of the USEPA. The hazard index values for children via upstream, midstream and downstream sample points were 0.0000128, 0.00000895 and 0.0513 respectively, while the hazard index values for adults via upstream, midstream and downstream sample points were 0.00000551, 0.00000395 and 0.00000581 respectively. The health risk estimation showed that the hazard quotients were within acceptable limits. The total cancer risks of potentially toxic elements were generally within the range of tolerable risk for adults and above the range of tolerable risk for children.

Run To End: The Way We Manage Our Late Field Life

Run-to-end (hereafter referred to "RTE") is a fit-for-purpose approach to manage late field life assets for realization of full potential through safe, reliable and cost effective operation by maximizing value at the end of economic life while complying to minimum technical standards through ALARP demonstration. RTE provides an overview of the multiple processes which shall be adopted and customized to the business needs of the intended facilities with the aim to minimize value leakage and ensuring safety until facility's cease of production prior to relinquishment or decommissioning. This RTE philosophy is to be applied to facilities that are within 5 years of its end of economic life so that value leakage can be minimized within the tolerable risk. The RTE provides an overview of development of case for change, guided process for the Operation & Maintenance philosophy changes and demonstration of risks mitigation & governance assurance. The safety risk of the facility shall be assessed and monitored through continuous ALARP demonstration. If the facility is deemed to be either no longer safe through ALARP or can no longer maintain a positive cash flow position, it is recommended that the facility to cease production operations and proceed with relinquishment or decommissioning activities. It has been implemented in one of late field life and resulting to 30% reduction of OPEX.

Internationalisation theory and Born Globals

Purpose It has been claimed that Born Globals are incompatible with the Uppsala model, which is based on the firm having a maximum tolerable risk level. This assumption was used to explain observed incremental commitments, with further commitments being made as experiential learning reduces the level of risk faced. This study aims to show that adding a consideration of the role of expected value, including the effects of resource constraints, can reconcile the Born Global and internationalisation process literatures. Design/methodology/approach The theoretical arguments are supported by mathematical modelling of a firm pursuing expected value based on subjective beliefs. Findings While the effects of risk and expected value coincide when firms limit their downside risks by taking an incremental approach to commitments, other factors impacting on expected value can shift the balance of incentives towards earlier and more rapid internationalisation. For instance, some firms are specialised and have high costs of R&D, and so need to achieve early and rapid growth but face small home markets. While resource constraints can lead a firm to expand for some time in its home market before internationalising, the effect can be reversed in the case of the finance constraint for some firms. Originality/value The study shows how Born Global and internationalisation process literatures can be reconciled through a consideration of the effects of expected value on internationalisation decisions. It also provides a novel theoretical analysis of Born Globals.

Risk assessment tools available to inform a nurse practitioner’s determination of tolerable risk

Risk in health care, often discussed in terms of its tolerability, is an abstract term that is patient- and context-specific. An older adult living at risk can be someone falling frequently at home risking a fractured hip, to someone self-neglecting. Family Nurse Practitioners working in Primary Care are well-situated to support patients over time and to mitigate risk. A better understanding of the risk assessment tools available to inform a level of risk tolerability for Nurse Practitioners working in Primary Care may enhance clinical reasoning and enhance their comfort with the concept of risk, resulting in consistent care delivery for patients. Evidencebased literature highlights the complexity of both defining and assessing risk, which is further reflected within the assessment tools. For these reasons, the purpose of this integrative literature review is to provide recommendations, founded in current literature findings, regarding the comprehensive risk assessment tools used to inform a Nurse Practitioner’s determination of tolerable risk for community-dwelling older adults. A search of three databases, as well as hand searches, resulted in nine tools for analysis. The interpretation of the findings suggested that risk assessment tools varied in their approach to risk, with some focused preventatively on risk mitigation while others could be applied in real-time to assess the severity of a perceived risk. Each tool included elements of risk which together, comprise a comprehensive, holistic risk assessment to be considered in the ongoing assessment of tolerable risk. A positive risk-based approach is also a shift in risk perception that Nurse Practitioners are encouraged to consider. The implications for practice include how the described approaches guide decision-making and the definitions of tolerable and intolerable risk can steer the Nurse Practitioner’s care, as well as to inform future research and the development of new risk assessment tools.

A Glance at Transit System Safety

System safety is a discipline of applying engineering and management principles, criteria, and techniques to achieve acceptable or tolerable risk within the constraints of operational effectiveness, suitability, time, and cost throughout all phases of the system life. System safety engineering is the program to identify hazards, and to eliminate hazards or reduce the associated risks when the hazards cannot be eliminated. System safety management involves plans and activities taken to identify hazards; assess and mitigate associated risks; track, control, close, and document risks encountered in the design, development, test, manufacturing, installation, operation and maintenance, and the disposal of systems, subsystems, and equipment. In this paper, the concept and principle of system safety in the transit system is discussed. The paper also introduces the safety standards, safety life-cycle, Safety Integrity Levels (SILs), safety analysis techniques and safety cases etc.
