Leader States Specific Hazard Controls

Specific hazard controls and procedures are important for ensuring worker safety. Certain work requires specific hazard controls because of the materials involved and the activity itself. To effectively manage specific or high hazards, leaders and crews need to identify the barriers to the risk. They play a critical role in implementing these procedures and controls. It is extremely important for the leader to state specific hazard controls and check for gaps in crew knowledge.

Leaders should clearly explain the procedures and controls that are in place for each of these hazards, including the steps that workers need to follow and any relevant equipment or materials they need to use. They should also check that the crew is trained, ensuring that they understand how to implement the procedure safely and effectively.

The leader should reinforce the importance of these procedures and controls, emphasizing the critical role they play in minimizing the risk of injury and illness. It is important to clearly explain the procedures, check that everyone is trained, assess worker knowledge, address gaps, and reinforce the importance of these measures. The leader ensures that the crew is fully aware of the hazards and has the knowledge and skills to work safely and effectively.

Specific hazard controls and procedures are critical in health and safety measures that are necessary to minimize the risk of injury and illness. It is important for the leader and crew to work together to implement these measures effectively, ensuring a safe and productive work environment for everyone.
