Unit of Competency | PSPSOHS603A - Analyse and evaluate OHS risk |
---|---|---|---|
Description | This unit covers the outcomes required to conduct a formal risk assessment comprising analysis and evaluation of OHS risk. It has been designed to be consistent with Australian Standard AS/NZS 4360: Risk Management (1999), or as revised. In practice, analysing and evaluating OHS risk may overlap with other generalist or specialist public sector work activities such as promoting ethical practice, applying government systems, influencing opinion, fostering leadership, managing resources, managing compliance with legislation.No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of endorsement. | ||
Employability Skills | This unit contains employability skills. | ||
Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit addresses the knowledge, processes and techniques necessary to analyse and evaluate OHS risk as part of the risk management process.OHS risk analysis involves defining the range of consequences, assessing the effectiveness of existing controls and deciding the likelihood of each consequence - and combining these in some way to obtain a level of risk. Risk evaluation is the comparison of pre-established criteria for tolerance and the subsequent ranking of risks requiring control.The situation to be analysed and evaluated may involve a single task or a process comprising a series of tasks. | ||
