Description
Summary:The aim of this paper is to identify the gaps of confined space risk assessment tools practised by Industry Code of Practice for Safe Working in Confined Space in Malaysia (ICOP 2010) comparing with the requirements of International Standard of Risk Management-Risk Assessment Technique (ISO 31010). There are 5 parts of Risk Assessment Element under the ICOP 2010, namely Part 1: The work to be undertaken, Part 2: The range of possible methods which can be used, Part 3: The present hazards, Part 4: Details of the actual method to be used for the particular work and Part 5: Procedure for rescue and emergency services will be analysed to identify the gaps. The list of risk assessment tools based on selected Journals including Checklist, Risk Scale, Risk Calculation, Ishikawa 5 Steps, Risk Estimation, Flexible Risk Assessment, Bowtie Risk Assessment, Hybrid Risk Assessment, Three Steps Construction Job Analysis and Risk Assessment Model will be mapped as a proposed Risk Assessment tools for ICOP 2010. The final outcomes of the review will help to improvise the existing Risk Assessment under the ICOP 2010 to be more operationally effective and can help to reduce the numbers of confined space accidents in Malaysia.
