Scope of the module
This training Module aims to present the main hazards that are embedded in the Cement production
processes as well as the risk assessment including the management of the corresponding risk.
The basic principles and the risk assessment methodology are described in training module M00,
within which the risk assessment form used in this module is provided.
For every production process a representative Risk Assessment Table has been prepared, while for
all the supporting processes there is a description of the hazards as well as an indicative Check List
for managing the identified hazards.

Purpose of the training module
The goal of the module is for the participants to have by the end of the course to have:
basic realisation of all the main hazards in the cement industry.
basic knowledge and experience of the ways in which accidents can be prevented
basic knowledge for managing risk

Classification of hazard in the cement industry
In all the cement production processes there are hazards that can be classed in:
Routine and general hazards such as:
o
Safe behaviour
Environment, work and passage areas
Work equipment
Safety labelling
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Manual load handling
Special hazards during the cement production phases such as:
o
Quarrying
Crushing
Clinker production
Milling processes at raw mill, cement milling and coal milling
Material transport
Filtering
Storage
Loading and delivery of final products
Fuel storage activities
Use of hazardous material
Generating units
Special hazards as a result of the work environment:
o
Dust
Noise
Fire
