Manila Harbor Center (MHC) recently organized a Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment and Risk Control (HIRARC) training activity to equip employees with the fundamentals of a risk management system to help them identify possible dangerous scenarios, enhance their alertness, and establish a safe working environment at the terminal.
HIRARC is a calculated tool used to identify, quantify, decrease, manage and eliminate probable causes of accidents that could happen in the performance of duty.
The training was a refresher course to help employees recognize potential threats and improve their risk assessment skills in order to develop proper control methods in their workspaces. Delegates were encouraged to participate in developing their respective HIRARC systems and ensure that they have a comprehensive risk assessment output.
