Risk Level Management Action

VERY HIGH Risks with a rating above 16 are totally unacceptable and the work will not be undertaken until the risk has been
reduced.

HIGH Where the risk rating is between 10 and 15, immediate action must be taken, including a stoppage of work if necessary,
to reduce the risk level.

MEDIUM If the rating is between 5 and 9, the risk is acceptable provided that everything reasonable practicable has been done
to reduce the risk.

LOW With a rating of 4 or less then the risk is acceptable, provided that the assessment is reviewed at regular intervals and
further reduced if possible.

Fire and Emergency Evacuation Plan (FEEP)

 During the activity all staff must be aware of the FEEP for that activity. In the event of an injury during this task the HSE Officer shall ensure
that first aid treatment is available for the activity. The casualty shall be treated at the scene in the first instance. Should further treatment be required the
closest vehicle to the scene of the incident shall be deemed the FEEP vehicle to take the injured to the QBEC clinic for further treatment.
 In the unlikely event that somebody is struck by debris or the trencher itself the casualty shall not be moved at all unless there is an immediate threat
to life by the location they are in or by the nature of the injuries sustained. QBEC emergency no: 55219535 ambulance shall immediately be called to the
scene; in the meantime the Primary First Aider 70525485 shall ensure the stability of the casualty.
 In the event of a fire during the activity then the fire extinguishers at the scene should be used to tackle the blaze if possible, all un required staff
should be evacuated from the location to a pre agreed location at the start of the activity.
 Civil Defense fire service should be called immediately to assist. All engines and electrical sources should be switched off and isolated.
 During in any FEEP all other activities in the area shall immediately be stopped until advised otherwise by the Senior Staff at the scene.
 Once the FEEP has been activated and the immediate threat is controlled the Project Management must be informed of the incident or accident.
 The scene should be sealed, either by staff or barriers if possible to ensure that his area remains the same for photographs and other investigation
steps that may be required. Depending on the nature and severity of the incident the Police may be required to attend the scene and to carry out their own
investigation.
 For investigation purposes all people who were involved in the activity are to identify themselves to the HSE Officer to assist in the investigation.
 All staff involved in the activity must be aware of this FEEP prior to the start of work.
