Job hazard analysis and risk mapping can help you foresee potential hazards and eliminate them.<\/p>\n\n<p><!--more-->\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cmwlab.com\/platform\/try\/\" onclick=\"ga('send', 'event', 'abtest', 'platform-banner-click');\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"pl-banner\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cmwlab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cmw-platform-banner.png\" class=\"img-fluid my-5\" alt=\"CMW Platform banner\" title=\"CMW Platform banner\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n<blockquote>\u201cJob hazard analysis and risk mapping can help you foresee potential hazards and eliminate them.\u201d<\/blockquote>\n\n<h3>Communicable Diseases<\/h3>\n\n<p style=\"text-indent:10px;\">Colds and the flu can paralyze work of departments and result in missed deadlines, especially at certain times of the year. Our society&#8217;s working culture plays it role in this: we encourage people to come to work when they are sick, first of all by limiting the number of sick days. Where one came to work with a fever, others will follow them to the hospital pretty soon thereafter. If they don\u2019t take care of themselves and become sick, productivity becomes really low.<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"text-indent:10px;\"><em>Measures can be taken<\/em>:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>flexible sick leave<\/li>\n<li>infrastructure for remote work<\/li>\n<li>seasonal employee vaccination<\/li>\n<li>Health &#038; Safety trainings<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h3>Driving fatalities<\/h3>\n\n<p style=\"text-indent:10px;\">The risk of fatal accidents en route to the office increases, the more sleep deprivation people experience, due to tight deadlines or a poor work-family balance. Car accidents also happen due to cellphone use when driving.<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"text-indent:10px;\"><em>Measures can be taken<\/em>:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>predictable and regular work hours<\/li>\n<li>measures to improve work-family balance (it can be childcare, elderly care, time off to spend with family, training or corporate policies dictating safe cell phone use)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h3>Workplace Violence<\/h3>\n\n<p style=\"text-indent:10px;\">Protecting your employees from criminal incidents, like robbery, which can take place near the office, is also a part of hazard management. In case your people come back from work late, especially if your office is situated far from populated areas, the route is not well-lit, then your people are at risk.<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"text-indent:10px;\"><em>Measures can be taken<\/em>:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>think of risks that occur when your employees deal with money (cashpoints),<\/li>\n<li>late or early working hours, and transport to and from the office<\/li>\n<li>\u0441onsider using cameras<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"638\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.cmwlab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/hazard-register-workflow.png\" alt=\"hazard register workflow template\" width=\"650\" height=\"449\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-638\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cmwlab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/hazard-register-workflow.png 650w, https:\/\/www.cmwlab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/hazard-register-workflow-300x207.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/>\n\n<p style=\"text-indent:10px;\">The risks your employees run, depend to a certain extent on what type of business you are.
