#405 Maintenance of Emergency Generator

This risk assessment document evaluates the risks associated with maintaining an emergency generator on board a ship. It identifies hazards such as lack of knowledge, improper cable connections, lack of spare parts, power failures, slips and trips, and adverse weather. For each hazard, it analyzes the severity, likelihood, and risk rating both with and without additional controls. The existing controls include lock-out/tag-out procedures, following maintenance instructions, competent crew, spare part availability, and avoiding hazardous areas during maintenance. No additional controls were found necessary to further reduce the risks.

1: NEGLIGIBLE: Near Miss or Simple First Aid/ Simple Repairs by ship staff/ Spill within spill trays 1: IMPROBABLE-Event not expected to occur RISK RATING RR = S x L
2: MINOR : Injury require Medical Treatment; MTC/ Repair need external assistance / Spill on deck < 1 m3 2 : RARE: Expected to occur in exceptional situations RR RISK CATEGORY
MODERATE: Serious injury or multiple minor injuries; LTI / Repairs affecting seaworthiness of ship leading to CoC / Spill on
3: 3: POSSIBLE: May occur at some time / occurred in the past
deck > 1 m3 1- 5 L - LOW
CRITICAL : Single fatality, Serious injuries, permanent disability / Requires lay up repairs or extensive drydockings, 3rd
4: 4: LIKELY : Possibility of occurrence of isolated incidents
party claims/ Spill overboard < 100L 6 - 10 M - MEDIUM
CATASTROPHIC : Mutiple Fatalaities or Long Term disabilities/ Total Loss of ship or immediate layup/dry-docking for major
