OCCUPATIONAL RISK ASSESSMENT IN 400/220/110/20 KV PORTILE DE FIER POWER SUBSTATION FROM ROMANIA
Abstract
Regardless of its type and size, any organization is faced with risks that can affect the achievement of its objectives in terms of activities, strategic initiatives, operations, processes and projects, with different consequences on strategic, operational, financial results and image and reputation. All activities of an organization involve risks, and risk management is the process of substantiating the decision, by taking into account the effects of uncertainty on the materialization of objectives and determining the necessary measures and actions. The process involves the use of logical and systematic methods for continuous communication-consultation, context-setting, identification, analysis, evaluation and treatment of risks associated with any activities, processes, functions, products, services or values, monitoring and risk review. Any work environment must be safe and healthy, and this is not always the case for too many workers. Every day many examples of workers whose health is exposed to the action of risk factors include dust, gaseous noxies, vibrations and extreme temperatures. The primary aim of this study is to assess and quantify the occupational risks at the 400/220/110/20 kV Portile de Fier power substation in Romania, identifying key risk factors and proposing measures to mitigate them. The assessment is carried out using the National Research and Development Institute of Occupational Safety - NRDIOS Bucharest method, in order to establish the risk/safety levels in a quantitative manner, based on a systemic analysis and on the assessment of risks of accidents and professional diseases. The role of Occupational Risks Assessment for power substation at very high voltage is to generate the national economy electricity, well-being, and safety work and health environment, workers and workplaces secured, and security of industrial and power process, in order to optimally operate the national economy and ensure energy security. This involves multidisciplinary and transdisciplinary knowledge from the authors: power substation, safety work, energy security and risk management (assessment).
