The $5 million fund was set up by the MOM to help SMEs who do not have the capabilities or resources to
implement risk assessment at their workplaces to comply with requirement under the Workplace Safety and
Health (WSH) Act. The Act was implemented on 1 March 2006 to reduce the risks at source by making
stakeholders accountable for managing the risks they create and taking reasonably practicable steps to ensure
the safety and health of workers.
With effect from 1 September 2006, all workplaces are required to implement comprehensive risk assessment

RISK ASSESSMENT WORKSHOPS AND GUIDELINES
In an all out effort to instil a safety culture in the shipyards and to assist marine companies to implement risk
assessment (RA) at their workplace, ASMI and the Ministry of Manpower jointly organised a series of RA
workshops for the industry.
Eight key marine trades were identified for the trade specific RA workshops. These eight trades were:
§
Scaffolding
§
Tank Cleaning
§
Steel Work
§
Painting and Blasting
§
Electrical Work
§
Piping
§
Transporting
Participants in the workshop were organised in groups and tasked to identify work processes of the trade and
mapped out tasks involved in these processes. They also had to discuss and analyse the hazards, likelihood and
severity of the risks involved and propose risk control measures for the various tasks.
The workshops were conducted between March to November 2006. Each workshop was championed by one of
the major shipyards, and led by a Chief Facilitator from the leading yard and supported by a team of senior safety
and trade personnel for eight shipyards as group facilitators. Officers from MOM also assisted in the facilitation
of the groups.
From the various workshops, risk matrices and templates were drawn up by the participants working in groups.
The following RA templates derived from the workshops (which may not be sufficient or comprehensive) are
available for reference only as sample formats.
