Adding a new hazard during work
When working on a job that is in progress, you may encounter a hazard that is new to you. Since you cannot be sure which risk assessments, method statements and questionnaires apply, you should register this new hazard.
Procedure
1. With the current job in progress, open the Health & safety card
2. In the Hazards section, tap the Add button (the green plus sign).
The Add hazard dialog opens.
3. Enter the hazard data and - if required - add a photo.
4. Tap Add.
Depending on the added hazard, a risk assessment and questionnaire may be required.
5. Tap Acknowledge to proceed with the job or tap Reject to stop and return the job to the back-office.
The new hazard will be added to Hazard registry in the back-office, with the field Assessment required set to Yes. The health & safety officer can assess the new hazard and determine its risk level or, if applicable, perform a full asbestos assessment.
