Task1:Hazard Identification
1.Chemical Exposure (Bitumen/Waterproofing): The black coating on the concrete foundation indicates the use of mastic or bituminous waterproofing.
2.Inhaling toxic vapors or direct skin contact can cause chemical burns, dermatitis.
3.Impalement Risks: Exposed vertical steel reinforcement bars (rebar) protruding from the column starter blocks pose severe puncture and impalement risks if a worker slips or falls.
4.Trips and Slips: The uneven, sandy terrain surrounding the elevated concrete slab creates unstable footing. Slips can also occur if stepping on wet waterproofing material.
5.Thermal/Environmental Stress: Working in an open, unshaded desert environment exposes workers to extreme heat, dehydration, heat stroke, and intense UV radiation.
6.Formwork & Material Handling Injuries: The presence of heavy timber formwork panels (seen resting on the concrete plinth) introduces risk of back strains from improper lifting, or hand injuries from pinch/crush points.
