Development of Dangerous Goods Reports and Preliminary Hazard Analysis for two new animal feed manufacturing sites.

Two new animal feed manufacturing sites in NSW engaged Risk and Safety Solutions Melbourne (RSSM) to provide essential safety and compliance services. Manufacturing facilities that handle and store chemicals used in the production process must meet stringent safety and regulatory standards to ensure safe operations and minimize risks. 

Our scope of work included preparing Dangerous Goods (DG) Reports and conducting Preliminary Hazard Analyses (PHA) for both sites. These services were critical to ensuring the facilities met all relevant state regulations while safeguarding the health and safety of workers and the surrounding community. 

 

 

Our Approach and Services

Dangerous Goods (DG) Reports

– We developed detailed Dangerous Goods Reports for each site, categorizing and quantifying the hazardous substances used and stored on-site. 
– Our reports provided clear guidelines on safe handling, storage, segregation, and emergency procedures for dangerous goods. 

Preliminary Hazard Analysis (PHA)

– A comprehensive Preliminary Hazard Analysis was conducted for both sites to identify potential risks related to chemical storage, handling, and production processes. 
– The PHA provided actionable recommendations to mitigate identified risks, ensuring compliance with safety standards and regulatory requirements. 
– Our analysis focused on preventing incidents, ensuring operational continuity, and protecting the health and safety of personnel. 

 

 

Outcome and Impact

With RSSM’s involvement, the animal feed manufacturing sites are now well-prepared to meet regulatory requirements and manage their operations safely. Our Dangerous Goods Reports and PHAs provided the client with the insights needed to implement effective safety measures, reducing risks and ensuring compliance. 

The proactive safety framework we developed will support safe operations as the facilities become operational, ensuring smooth manufacturing processes while protecting employees and the surrounding environment.
