2. Identify and Assess Health Risks in the Design
Focus on recognising and managing risks such as:
Noise exposure
Vibration (hand-arm and whole‑body)
Carcinogens and cancer‑causing agents
Respiratory hazards (dust, fumes, vapours, gases)
Skin irritation and dermatitis
Musculoskeletal disorders (from poor ergonomics, manual handling, or repetitive tasks)
Hazardous substances (including COSHH‑regulated materials)
Mental health risks (stress, cognitive load, isolation, psychosocial hazards)...
