中小企業の機械設備に係る簡易リスクアセスメント手法の開発

抄録

Even in 2019, the number of occupational accidents that occur in Japan is about 850, and the number of casualties is about 125,000, which is not a small number. In addition, there are reports that the frequency of occupational accidents is increasing as the size of business establishments becomes smaller. The Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare is promoting the introduction of risk assessment as a measure to reduce the number of victims of occupational accidents. However, it has not been fully spread in small and medium-sized enterprises due to lack of human resources. In this study, we propose a method of contrasting machine photographs and illustrations based on the fact that the machine is compared with the list of hazards. In addition, although it is necessary to present the accidents as comprehensively as possible when creating the illustrations used in the risk assessment, if the number of illustrations is excessively large, the amount of work increases and it becomes difficult to carry out. In addition, it is desirable that the method of creating an illustration be as simple and easy to understand as possible. From these things, we have summarized the procedure that anyone can create an illustration in an easy-to-understand manner.
