OPNAVINST 5100.19E PG 4-7
How is the RAC derived?
By using Hazard Severity and Mishap Probability
Hazard Severity code I:
Catastrophic: Hazard may cause death loss of facility or grave damage to national interest
Hazard severity code II:
Critical: Hazard may cause severe injury, illness, property damage, damage to national interest
Hazard severity code III:
Marginal: Hazard may cause minor injury, illness or property damage
Hazard severity code IV:
Negligible: Hazard presents a minmal threat to personnel safety or health property
define: MIshap Probability
the likelihood that a hazard will result in a mishap
Mishap Probability-A:
Likely to occur immediately or in a short period of time
Mishap Probability-B:
Probably will occur in time
Mishap Probability-C:
May occur in time
Mishap Probability-D:
Unlikely to occur

12. PPE
3 methods of controlling hazards

2. Identify and elimate existing hazards
3. Reduce the likelihood and severity of mishaps from hazards that cannot be eliminated
principals of hazard control
1. Substitution
2. Engineering controls
3. admin controls
4. PPE
Substitution hazard control principals
1. replacement of a process, material or equipment having lower hazard potential
2. ENSURE the new substitute material does not create a new hazard
Engineering hazard control principals
1. Primarily accomplished through design and advanced planning
2. should be approved by safety and I.H. before implementing
2 types of Engineering hazard controls
1. Isolation
2. Ventilation
Engineering hazard controls (isolation)
Physical seperation of hazard from personnel to eliminate or minimize contact. involves the use of barrier's such as
1. Physical barrier (machine guards)
2. Time barrier (timed operation of semi automatic equipment)
3. Distance Barrier (Remote control)
Engineering hazard controls (ventilation)
The control of potential hazardous airborn substances through the movment of air.
1. General ventilation or "dilution ventilation" in the dilution of the concetration of an airborn substance by mixing it with uncontaminated air
2. Local exaust ventilation- is the removal of an airborne substance at its source or point of generation
Administrative controls of hazards
Employs special operating procedures to reduce exposure of individuals to hazards
1. limiting accessto high hazard areas
2. Adjusted work schedules
PPE controls of hazards
Personnel wear special equipment to prevent/reduce exposure to hazard. This is the least preferred method because:
1. Exposure can occur upon break down or failure of PPE
2. PPE reduces workers productivity
