PREFACE
This HIRARC Guidelines for Civil Engineering Program
book was prepared to provide a standard procedure on
Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) management in work
place, laboratory experiments and equipment for the needs of
students and all faculty members. This guideline was
developed systematically to satisfy the requirements stated by
Department of Occupational Safety and Health (DOSH). This
book was intended to give a full-scale view of how hazard and
risk assessment is being carried out by giving related samples
from laboratory experiments. It is hoped that this book can be
a good source of reference for the end-user in identifying
hazards, assessing the risk, and at the same time to control
the hazards.
The approach adopted in developing this book is to make a
simple note by minimizing words and giving real examples for
different types of hazard risk tasks. A special gratitude was
presented to the Safety and Health Committee of the
Faculty of Civil Engineering Universiti Teknologi MARA
Pulau Pinang as the authors of this book whom succeeded to
produce a useful yet informative guideline. The authors would
sincerely welcome any constructive critic, comments or
suggestions to improve the book in near future.

1 HIRARC GUIDELINES FOR CIVIL ENGINEERING PROGRAM
1.0 HIRARC MATTERS
HIRARC is a short term for Hazard Identification Risk
Assessment and Risk Control. These three (3) principles
used in workplaces to manage safety and health.
According to OSHA 1994 in section 15(2)(a): “the
provision and maintenance of plant and systems of work
that are, so far as is reasonable and practicable, safe
and without risks to health.
What is Objectives of HIRARC?
To identify types of Hazards in work area
Evaluate the Risk
Suggest Risk Controls to Organization
Implementing Risk Controls, and
Review Risk Controls
What is Basic Component of HIRARC?
The basic components of HIRARC are as follows;
1. Hazard identification
2. Risk Assessment
3. Risk Control
Safety and Health Committee Faculty of Civil Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA Cawangan Pulau Pinang
2 HIRARC GUIDELINES FOR CIVIL ENGINEERING PROGRAM
4. Review of Exist Risk Control
Why HIRARC is Important?
According to Section 15 (2)(a) of OSHA 1994:
“ the provision and maintenance of plants and systems
of work that are, so far as is reasonable and practicable,
safe and without risks to health”
Who Can Conduct HIRARC?
1. Someone who’s trained to conduct HIRARC in
Organization.
2. Safety and Health committee
3. Safety and health Officer
When We Need to Conduct HIRARC?
1. The situations where hazard exists Harmful.
2. The situation is uncertain whether the controls are
available is enough or not.
3. Before implementing corrective measures or
prevention.
4. By an organization that continuously improves security
Safety and Health Committee Faculty of Civil Engineering,
Universiti Teknologi MARA Cawangan Pulau Pinang
3 HIRARC GUIDELINES FOR CIVIL ENGINEERING PROGRAM
management.
Where to Conduct HIRARC?
In any workplace that is likely to be hazardous and
needs to be controlled.
How to conduct HIRARC?
Briefly, HIRARC can be implemented in the following
steps:
Step 1. Classify work activities
Step 2. Perform hazard identification
Step 3. Get the risk level
Step 4. Control high risk
Step 5. Review the effectiveness of controls
Safety and Health Committee Faculty of Civil Engineering,

4 HIRARC GUIDELINES FOR CIVIL ENGINEERING PROGRAM
2.0 PROCESS OF HIRARC
The process of HIRARC start from classify activities,
identify hazards, assess the risk, select risk control and
review the risk control.
Classify activities/ work/ task
Identify hazards
Assess the risk
Select risk control
Review the risk control exist
*Note: All the process of HIRARC documented in FCE
HIRARC Form (Appendix A) based on types of activities
works or workplace.
Safety and Health Committee Faculty of Civil Engineering,
Universiti Teknologi MARA Cawangan Pulau Pinang
5 HIRARC GUIDELINES FOR CIVIL ENGINEERING PROGRAM
STEP 1: CLASSIFY ACTIVITIES WORK
How to classify the activities work?
The activities work can be classify based on;
1. Workplace or location – laboratory, office,
construction site, computer lab, studio
2. Procedure of experiment – specific gravity test,
concrete cube test, BOD test, Tensile test
3. Procedure of equipment – uses of mobile crane,
forklift, cutter machine
Tips:
The work activities selected for HIRARC register must be:
1. not too big e.g. manufacturing a car;
2. not too small e.g. fixing a nut; or
3. defined task e.g. loading, packing, mixing,
fixing the door
The workplace selected for HIRARC Register must be:
1. Specific area – Concrete Lab, IDP Office,
Computer Lab
2. Not too small area – small store, Janitor room

7 HIRARC GUIDELINES FOR CIVIL ENGINEERING PROGRAM
STEP 2: IDENTIFY HAZARD
Generally, Hazard describe as a source or a situation
with a potential of harm in terms of human injury or
health, damage to properties, damage to environments
or a combination of these.
What is the different between hazard, danger and
risk?
Danger is relative exposure to hazard and meanwhile,
risk is combination of the likelihood of an occurrence of a
hazardous event with specified period or in specified
circumstances and the severity of injury or damage to
the health of people, property, environment or any
combination of these caused by the event.
Types of Hazard
Generally, hazards can be divided into three (3) main
groups;
A. Safety Hazards - is any force strong enough to
cause injury, or damage to Property.
B. Health hazards - is any agent that can cause
illness to an individual.
C. Environmental Hazards – pollution release to the
environment that may cause harm or deleterious
effects.

Safety and Health Committee Faculty of Civil Engineering,
Universiti Teknologi MARA Cawangan Pulau Pinang
8 HIRARC GUIDELINES FOR CIVIL ENGINEERING PROGRAM
To facilitate hazard identification, it can be categorized
as follows;
1. Chemical Hazard
2. Physical Hazard
3. Biological Hazard
4. Ergonomics Hazard
5. Psychosocial Hazard
6. Mechanical Hazard
7. Electrical Hazard
What are The Sources of Hazard?
The main sources of hazard are from unsafe act and
unsafe condition.
How to identify Hazards?
We can identify hazards by doing these activities;
1. Workplace Inspections
2. Discussions & Interview
3. Internal & external Audit
Safety and Health Committee Faculty of Civil Engineering,
Universiti Teknologi MARA Cawangan Pulau Pinang
9 HIRARC GUIDELINES FOR CIVIL ENGINEERING PROGRAM
4. OSH Training
We can also identify the hazards by refer to these
documents below;
1. Accident Statistics or report
2. Policy – UiTM Safety Policy, UiTM Policy
3. Legal – OSHA 94, FMA 67
4. Manual – Lab manual, equipment manual
5. SOP – Standard Operating Procedure
6. ERP – Emergency Response Plan
7. SDS – Safety Data Sheet
8. Feedback & complaint

STEP 3: ASSESS THE RISK
Risk assessment is the process of evaluating the risk to
safety and health arising from hazards at work.
How to assess risk in the workplace?
Step 1: Look for hazards.
Step 2: Decide who might be harmed and how.
Step 3: Evaluate the likelihood (probability) and the
severity (consequence) risks and decide whether the
existing precautions are adequate or whether more
should be done.
A. Likelihood – this value is based on the likelihood
of an event occurring.
You can ask the question “How many times has this
event happened in the past?”
Assessing likelihood is based on worker experience,
analysis or measurement.
Likelihood levels range from “most likely” to
“inconceivable.”

B. Severity – it can be divided into five categories.
Severity are based upon an increasing level of
severity to an individual’s health, the environment
or to property. Table B indicates severity by using
the following table;

C. Risk Assessment
Procedure using Risk Matrix (TABLE C);
1. Find the severity column that best describes the
outcome of risk.
2. Then follow the likelihood row to find the description
that best suits the likelihood that the severity will occur.
3. The risk level is given in the box where the row and
column meet.
Risk can be calculated using the following formula:
Relative Risk = Likelihood X Severity
The relative risk value can be used to prioritize necessary
actions to effectively manage work place hazards. Table
D determine priority based on the following Risk Priority
Number (RPN) in Table D.

STEP 4: SELECT RISK CONTROL
“Risk control is the process used to identify all
practicable measures for eliminating or reducing the
likelihood of injury, illness or disease in the workplace, to
implement the measures and to continually review the
measures in order to measure their effectiveness.”
What is the matter that must be consider in
implementing risk control?
1. Review measures regularly and modify if necessary.
2. Comply with national laws and regulations.
3. Reflect good management practice.
4. Consider the current state of knowledge.
5. Include information or reports from organizations
related i.e., DOSH, OSH services.
What is Hierarchy of Control?
The hierarchy is in a descending order from the control
measure which gives the greatest level of safety, but
they may be used in combination. Generally the order is;
Safety and Health Committee Faculty of Civil Engineering,
Universiti Teknologi MARA Cawangan Pulau Pinang
17 HIRARC GUIDELINES FOR CIVIL ENGINEERING PROGRAM
1. Elimination most effective
2. Substitution
3. Engineering Control
4. Administration Control
5. Personal Protective Equipment least effective
Tips* Administrative control and PPE should be
considered only as “back-up” control measures.
1. Elimination
Getting rid of a hazardous job, tool, process,
machine or substance is perhaps the best way of
protecting workers.
Example; a salvage firm might decide to stop buying and
cutting up scrapped bulk fuel tank due to explosion
hazards.
2. Substitution
Sometimes doing the same work in a less
hazardous way is possible.
Example; a hazardous chemical can be replaced with a
less hazardous one. Controls must protect workers from
any new hazards that are created.
Safety and Health Committee Faculty of Civil Engineering,
Universiti Teknologi MARA Cawangan Pulau Pinang
18 HIRARC GUIDELINES FOR CIVIL ENGINEERING PROGRAM
3. Engineering Control
a. Redesign – jobs and processes can be
reworked to make them safer.
Example; container can be made easier to hold and lift.
b. Isolation – if a hazard cannot be eliminated
or replaced, it can sometimes be isolated, contained or
otherwise kept away from workers.
Example; an insulated and air-conditioned control room
can protect operators from a toxic chemical.
c. Automation – dangerous processes can be
automated or mechanized. Example; computer-
controlled robots can handle spot welding operations in
car plants. Care must be taken to protect workers from
robotic hazards.
d. Barriers – a hazard can be blocked before it
reaches workers.
Example; special curtains can prevent eye injuries from
welding arc radiation. Proper equipment guarding will
protect workers from contacting moving parts.
e. Absorption – baffles can block or absorb
noise. Lockout systems can isolate energy sources during
repair and maintenance. Usually, the further a control
keeps a hazard away from workers, the more effective it
is.
f. Dilution – some hazards can be diluted or
Safety and Health Committee Faculty of Civil Engineering,
Universiti Teknologi MARA Cawangan Pulau Pinang
19 HIRARC GUIDELINES FOR CIVIL ENGINEERING PROGRAM
dissipated.
Example; ventilation systems can dilute toxic gasses before they reach operators.
4. Administrative Controls
a. Safe Work Procedures (SWP) – workers
can be required to use standardized safety practices. The
employer is expected to ensure that workers follow these
practices. Work procedures must be periodically
reviewed with workers and updated.
b. Supervision and Training – initial training
on safe work procedures and refresher training should
be offered. Appropriate supervision to assist workers in
identifying possible hazards and evaluating work
procedures.
c. Job rotations and reschedule task – it can
reduce the time that workers are exposed to a hazard.
For example, workers can be rotated through jobs
requiring repetitive tendon and muscle movements to
prevent cumulative trauma injuries. Noisy processes can
be scheduled when no one is in the workplace.
d. Housekeeping, repair and maintenances
programs – housekeeping includes cleanings, waste
disposal and spill cleanup. Tools, equipment and
machinery are less likely to cause injury if they are kept
clean and well maintained.
Safety and Health Committee Faculty of Civil Engineering,
Universiti Teknologi MARA Cawangan Pulau Pinang
20 HIRARC GUIDELINES FOR CIVIL ENGINEERING PROGRAM
e. Hygiene – hygiene practices can reduce the
risk of toxic materials being absorbed by workers or
carried home to their families. Street clothing should be
kept in separate lockers to avoid being contaminated by
work clothing. Eating areas must be segregated from
toxic hazards. Eating should be forbidden in toxic work
areas. Where applicable, workers should be required to
shower and change clothes at the end of the shift.
5. Personal Protective Equipment
- Personal Protective equipment (PPE) and
clothing is used when other controls measures are not
feasible and where additional protection is needed.
- Workers must be trained to use and maintain
equipment properly.
- The employer and workers must understand the
limitations of the personal protective equipment.
- The employer is expected to require workers to
use their equipment whenever it is needed.
- Care must be taken to ensure that equipment is
working properly.
- Otherwise, PPE may endanger a worker’s health
by providing an illusion of protection.
Safety and Health Committee Faculty of Civil Engineering,
Universiti Teknologi MARA Cawangan Pulau Pinang
21 HIRARC GUIDELINES FOR CIVIL ENGINEERING PROGRAM
STEP 5: REVIEW RISK CONTROL EXIST
A review follow-up is always essential. Review is an
important aspect of any risk management process. It is
essential to review what has been done to ensure that
the controls put in place are effective.
Inspect, evaluate and monitor hazard controls during
inspections, routine maintenance, and other activities.
Ask the following questions;
a. have the risk controls exist solved the problem?
b. is any risk to workers posed by the risk controls
contained?
c. are all new hazards being identified?
d. are significant, new hazards appropriately controlled?
e. are accident reports being analyzed?
f. are any other risk control required?
(source: DOSH HIRARC Guidelines 2008)
Lastly, each HIRARC must be fully documented and
completed by using FCE HIRARC Register Form.
