Hazard identification on cabtrim in manufacturing industry

The objective of this investigation is to reduce the hazards in the workplace, based on the worker’s operation using HIRA (Hazard Identification and Risk Analysis) and FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis). The number of work accidents in India at the end of 2017 was relatively high. Therefore, this investigation is conducted to identify hazards and determine risk control using hazard identification and risk assessment method (HIRA). There are three main stages, first to identify the hazard in the workplace and second is to analyze the hazard and the third one is to control the identified hazard using some control measures. The result shows that there are nine potential hazards in industries, 22% of it is categorized as high-risk level, i.e. hand slashed and fingers cut by machine. There are the three kinds of risk control for activities for determined to minimize the risk, i.e. elimination and engineering control and personal protective equipment. The problems are identified by the severity data using FMEA worksheet.
