Incident Prevention for Critical Hazard Activities

Ensuring workplace safety requires a structured approach to hazard identification, assessment, and mitigation.

The Energy-Based Hazard Recognition and Risk Management system provides a comprehensive methodology to systematically identify, assess, and mitigate hazards by focusing on energy sources present in the workplace.

This document is written as a guide to assist in the identification of “Stuff That Can Kill You” specifically, hazards and controls while working in the telecommunication industry using the Energy Wheel approach.

It covers 10 different categories of energy and describes potential high-energy hazards, direct controls, and alternate controls associated with each hazard.
