Risk Assessment Introduction

The right to life is the most fundamental human right. Thus the protection of the safety and health workers in the workplace has been a core issue of the legislator in resent years. Technical Data used in the field explained in iosh course in Islamabad.   In most countries legislation provides sufficient statutory guidance to enable managers to conduct a suitable and sufficient workplace risk assessment. The real problems and probably the primary cause for the lack in the reduction of hazards and risks and the improvement of accident statistics can be attributed not to a lacking legislative framework but rather to a lack of practical transformation and implementation of these principles by the participants in the workplace risk assessment process.

The business world has become increasingly competitive and complex resulting in the rapid changes in the working environment, processes and organization of work. The traditional command and control approach cannot fully address these challenges as laws and regulations are unable to cover all possible types of hazards and risks effectively. Some more details of iosh course in Islamabad are as under.

The concept to manage risk however is nothing new, in the Stone Age human beings tried to prevent their risk exposure to being attacked by wild animals by living in caves and later on they developed more controls. When they discovered how to manage fire they used this new control by making fires to keep the danger at bay when they had to sleep outside. They did not call this risk assessment, they just called it survival.

This process of evolution continued and mankind were able to develop and harness many more energy sources. Many years after the cavemen scared the predators away with fire, around 2200 BC, the King of Babylon produced the famous 'Code of Hammurabi' in an attempt to capture the prevention of unsafe practices in a formalized and structured set of rules. Incidentally this code prescribed specific punishment for actions or lack of it by supervisors resulting in injury of their workers. For example, if a worker lost an arm due to an act or omission by an overseer, his arm was removed to match the loss of the worker. This would seem very harsh in when we look at it with a modern world view, but apparently provided the necessary motivation to supervisors to increase the safety in their work areas.
