Risk Assessment for Blasting Operations

This risk assessment document outlines three activities - storage and handling of explosives, drilling in rocks, and blasting activity - that carry risks for a job involving control blasting for a wagon tippler. Hazards include fire, explosion, dust, noise, flying rock particles, vibration, and misfires. Control measures are outlined to minimize each risk, such as allowing only authorized and trained personnel, use of proper protective equipment, ensuring blast areas are clear of people, and monitoring for safety before starting hazardous activities.
