Financial arguments
Some of the indirect costs associated with the unwanted event happening as are;
Staff morals will be lost.
Difficulties and time lost during recruiting new staff.
Loss of reputation.
Damage to the industrial relations.
Action Sound absorbing mats must be installed to minimize noise intensity (Hazard Category
“Noise”).
Specific legal arguments
Special legal arguments from ILO side for noise is ILO C148- working environment (Air
pollution, Noise and vibrations), 1977(No.148) and Recommendation R156-worming
environment (Air pollution, Noise and vibrations), 1977(No.156) says that exposures to high
noises causes’ noise induced hearing losses as well as other health effects. A normal Noise
exposure standard to workers’ hearing ability for an eight hours shift is 85 db (A). noise
exposures should be controlled by;
Undertaking a noise exposure survey to assess the noises.
Action Install the hoisting system for the lifting of heavy oil barrels (Hazard Category “Manual
Handling”).
Specific legal arguments The ILO Convention and Recommendation No. C155 (R164) require employers to ensure that
the process is reasonable and safe. The International Labor Organization's "Code of Safety for
the Use of Chemicals at Work" (CoP) offers specific recommendations on the appropriate
measures that employers should take to protect employers from the risks identified in the risk
assessment.
Severity categories:
Minimal: no injury or ill health will occur.
Minor: minor type injury or ill health will occur which will be cured by first aid treatment.
Major: major injury or ill health will occur which will need hospital treatments.
Catastrophic: death or other sever injuries will cause.
The severity of the risk associated with this manual handling work is quit major and there
