INTRODUCTION :-
This is a precise report on risk assessments carried out in a building construction site of
The inspection was made on 03 march 2014 to assess the risk and hazards arising daring various
construction activities and the adequacy of the control measures taken in the construction site.
Around 150 workers and 40 contractors were working towards building a three storied commercial
shopping complex of 8713 sq.ft on the banks of the busy state highway.
There I had meet with M.Nouman the site engineer who provided a had full of help to complete this
assessment.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY :-
The inspection focuses mainly on health and safety hazards associated with
variousconstructionsactivates at the work associated with various construction activities at the work
site.
The main topics outlined below and a detailed description is placed in the main body of this report.
Few points related to lack of emergency procedures which required attention were also mentioned

Risk of people and objects bulling from height due to working with improper work
Platforms and badly maintained access equipments were clearly visible during the
Inspection.
Musculoskeletal hazards of excessive manual handling due to improper lifting techniques and
continuous stopping and twisting motions were also assessed.
Risk of continuous and long team exposure to hazardous clearly noticeable in the work

Working at height . Working at height always involves potential risk of serious injury or fatality to the workers.
Many of the working platforms and access equipments in the work site were prone to this highly
Alerted risk due to either improper design or poor maintenance. Some of the elevated work platforms are in badly
maintainedcondition. But still in use and not provided with guard rails and toe boards these represent
infringement of Rule 5(2) of Regulation of Employment and condition and workers Act 1996 by Republic of Indian
Immediate attention required on following points:
Replacing of poorly designed and badly maintained scaffolds and elevated platforms
Provision of suitable guard rails and toe boards to the unprotected edger and work platforms.
Routinely inspection and periodic maintenance of scaffolds work platforms and access
equipments
Provision of sufficient number of safety harness and other Protective equipments and proper
supervision to ensure corrector usage of PPES.

(a) Musculoskeletal hazards :- The tasks involving carrying load manually to longer distance and
repetitive stooping 01 twisting motion are prone to various musculoskeletal disorders like back
injury , tendon and ligament injurious wruldetc These risks are to be eliminated or minimized by
proper planning of posting for unloading construction materials and ways of appropriate
handling and following actions are strongly recommended
Proper planning and supervision to ensure the material or unloaded at the possible nearest
Point where the items are actually required
Provision of adequate and suitable handling aids for conveying goods.
Estimated cost for above remedial action would be 50,000 inr

Training sessions for creating awareness among workers on ill health effects of various
hazardous substances
Estimated cost for these control measures would be 40,000 inr
3 FIRE SAFTY:
The inspection reveals some of the fire hazards and risks arising from improper storage
of gas cylinders inflammable fuels etc. and accumulation of paper wastage due for poor housekeeping
Non-availability of designated storage place for storing the gas and inflammablefuel containers are they
key issues which required immediate attention . Lack of effective supervision on housekeeping activities
also ignites the fire risk. Under mentioned prevention measures accorded priority to reduce occurrence
and spread if fire in the work site.
Arrangement of safe, suitable and dedicated storage aria with proper fencing and lockable gate
Keeping gas slanders this area to be marked with proper sign and warning boards. Empty and
Filled cylinders are to be stored separately and to be chained upright an inspection scheduleof this
storage area by competent personnel also to be promulgated and ensured.
Another safe stowage area for keeping the liquid fuel containers also to be earmarked.
Procurement of new first aid fire extinguishers.
Ensure good supervision on housekeeping routines for timely clearance of dustbins and other
waste materials.
Estimated cost for these control measures would be 1, 00,000 inr.

construction Workers central rules 1998 which says whenever a building or construction work is being
carried on or is located in close proximity to a road or any other place where any vehicular traffic may
cause danger to building workers the employer shall ensure that such building or other construction
work is barricaded and suitable warning signs and lights displaced or erected to prevent such danger and
if necessary he may make a request in writing to the concerned authorities to control such traffic.
Ensure availability of guards and protective covers while running any rotating machinery
Barricading , signage boards and hi-vis jackets white working in close proximity to road or any
