How should I begin?

First take measures to eliminate the hazards which have the greatest impact on workers, especially in working areas with particularly high risk and for activities where accident and health hazards are probable.

Stipulate other measures with respect to their urgency, and their chronological and practical feasibility.

Features for risk-laden working areas or activities include, for example:

• the frequent occurrence of disturbances in the operational sequence,
• conspicuous absence times,
• accident and sickness frequency,
• frequent erronous actions,
• activities whose performance is boring and monotonous,
• activities which are very often performed under pressure of time,
• poor working atmosphere,
• areas with high fluctuation,
• poor quality of work.
