To start off, I first looked at the job sheet. From this I then valued the risk assessment on my colleague and then the risk assessment on task. After doing the previous I then checked the delivery sheet to see what I would need to do for the task and what the quantity that I needed to produce was to be. After reading the delivery ticket I signed and agreed to the statement and changed any incorrect parts to the agreement.
I then looked for any risks in the college that could affect me or any workers what were working in the same situation, such as closed doors and then solved the problems but putting door-wedges in so I would be able to support myself with two hands if need be.
Safety boots (steel toe-caped) were worn to protect our feet, gloves to cushion the weight and glasses in case the paint is dropped and splashes in out face.
We wore the boots to protect our feet from anything heavy falling on them, the gloves to protect things like splinters and blisters.
I then read the delivery sheet to see what the job was and what quantity was need of each material.
The hazards for this task are: the strain in the back, legs and arms when lifting the paint, 30kg in total. This could lead to a strain and possibly pulling a muscle in you back, you could also drop the buckets of paint on your feet.
For the pain, each bucket (which had a handle) weighted 15kg each. I carried one in each hand to balance myself out. You have to stack the pain on top of each other, but not too high so that it would be unstable and topple over.
The pain was carried from the store from to the class and then back again, I made two trips, carrying two buckets each time there and back.
