Learning Goal: I'm working on a research & summaries multi-part question and need support to help me learn.

- Explain the Martin and Bartol matrix for managing turnover. How does this relate to taking an investment approach to human resources?
- What are ways an organization might attempt to retain its most valued employees?
- Because workers live and stay healthy longer, the workforce is aging. How might this impact and organization’s competitive position
- Locate news accounts in both the popular and business presses of an organization that has recently implemented large scale layoffs. Apply the framework of alternative cost reduction strategies presented in the reading to determine whether any other possible solutions might have allowed the employer to avoid the layoffs/downsizings

- Identifying in the next column any additional control measures necessary to reduce the risk presented by each hazard (if you have 2 control measures in column 3, you should say YES and add one control measure in column 5)
- In the final column prioritizing proposed control measures using a numerical scale (5 as high priority (for high risk) and 1 low priority (low risk).

PLEASE DO NOT use these Hazards in your risk assessment report

Hazard identification

Good Examples on specific hazard:

1. Prolonged exposure to the loud noise produced from steel production machinery.

1. Overturning hazard occurs as a semi-truck is used to transport huge steel beam

3.   Exposure to wood dust produced by grinding machines

Who might be harmed and how

For the ‘who’ criteria, you should give thought to who might be harmed (groups of people likely to be affected e g visitors, staff, employees working in the area etc.)

For the “how” criteria, how they are likely to be harmed e.g. broken bones, asthma etc

NO Half mark if you state WHO only or HOW only Good Examples on Who might be harmed and how :

- Workers who are doing the job. Fatigue and stress might occur with the passage of time in addition to hearing damage.
- Workers who are carrying out the job. Their skin may come into contact with the hazardous substance and absorb it which cause living tissues to be destroyed.
- Workers and visitors may suffer temporary or permanent hearing damage from exposure to noise from drilling machines.

What’s already being done to control the risk? / additional controls

In this section, you should compare the existing controls with good practice and state either ‘yes’ or ‘no’ in the “any further controls” box.

If you decide no additional controls are needed, you should explain why no additional actions are required in the “additional” box.

Good Examples on What is already being done to control the risk?

- Workers are wearing ear plugs to reduce the effect of the noise.
- Inspections are done regularly to ensure use of PPE (Ear Plugs).

Additional actions

- Health surveillance should be monitored to ensure having effective control measures.

Priority

You should use realistic key to the priorities and use only numerical scale

Good Examples on Priority

1: (Lowest priority)

5: (Highest priority)

Review date

Good practice of Review date

The review date should be minimum 7 days after assessment date (for education only purpose)
