3.13 Risk assessment (refer to 32-520)
It is a legal requirement in terms of Section 8 (2)(d) of the OHS Act for an employer to carry out risk
assessments, to establish which risks and hazards are attached to the health and safety of persons
due to any work which is performed, any article or substance which is, handled, stored, transported.
A risk assessment is defined as an identification of the hazards present in the activity, work, site,
and an estimate of the extent of the risks involved, considering whatever precautions are already
being taken.
It is essentially a three-stage process:
identification of all hazards.
evaluation of the risks;
Measures to control the risks.
Risk assessments are required to be maintained. This means that significant changes to a process
or activity, or any new process or activity should be subjected to a risk assessment and that if new
hazards come to light during the work process, then these should also be subjected to risk
assessments. Risk assessments for long term processes should be periodically reviewed and
updated. Method statements or written safe work procedures are an effective method as information
and record of the way jobs / tasks must be performed. Daily or issue based or task specific or on
the job risk assessments must be conducted at the place where work is to be performed/ conducted
to allow managers and employees to assess any inherent risks that could have been overlooked
during the initial risk assessment or any changes that might have occurred in a period of absence.
For example if a job / task is extended over a day or halted due to inclement weather.
Guidelines for actual steps involved in a job/task specific risk assessment are:
Each activity is listed.
Specific hazards are identified and listed against each activity.
The magnitude of each risk is rated as Low. Medium or High.
All known documentary and supervisory controls are listed. For instance: What safe work
procedures exist for ladders.

assessment shall be recorded, and their competence established. This instruction shall be
done through an interpreter if required and recorded on the Pre-Job Brief (Daily Safe Task
Instructions), with reference to applicable Risk Assessments.
3.14 Safe work procedures / method statements
There must be written safe work procedures for all activities, the safe work procedures must be

as quoted shall prevail, and the unit rate shall be corrected.
(c) Where there is an error in the total of the prices that is the result either of other
corrections required by the checking process or in the tenderer’s addition of prices,
the total of the prices shall prevail, and the tenderer shall be asked to revise the

Tender validity 2.12 Hold the tender(s) valid for acceptance by Eskom at any time within the validity period after

consideration. Tenderers will be requested to extend the validity of their tenders until a
contract(s) have been concluded with one or more tenderers. A request that a tenderer
extend the validity of its tender is not a representation that the tender is an acceptable
tender or that Eskom will seek to negotiate or conclude a contract with the tenderer. If the
validity of tenders expires before contracts have been concluded, the procurement process
is deemed to have concluded without an award.
Confidentiality and 2. 13 Treat as confidential all matters that arise in connection with the procurement. Use and copy
copyright of the documents provided by Eskom only for the purpose of preparing and submitting a tender

clarification compulsory in order to familiarise themselves with the proposed work, services, supply,
meeting location or similar. Failure to attend a clarification meeting or site visit that is identified as

Details of the meeting(s) are stated in the Tender Data. Tenderers are entitled to ask
correction of errors as required above.
Evaluation of 3.17 Score the B-BBEE level as stated on the CSD report or as per certificate/affidavit provided.
B-BBEE If the B-BBEE level is a pre-qualification criterion; then the proof of the B-BBEE level
(certificate/CSD number/CSD report) must be provided at the closing date and time for
tender submission; or the tender will be disqualified. If sub-contracting to designated groups
pre-qualification criteria are utilized (selected/mandatory) in terms of the PPPFA
Regulation, then Eskom will apply the PPPFA requirements for sub-contractors’ B-BBEE
status and the sub-contractors’ CSD number or B-BBEE certificate/affidavit will need to be
provided at the closing date and time for tender submission. Should the
information/documents provided indicate that the level is in dispute (fraudulent/ expired)
then the tender will be disqualified.
However, for the purposes of PPPFA point allocation: if no B-BBEE certificate/affidavit is
provided at Tender closing date and time for tender submission, or the
information/documents provided are fraudulent or have expired; then the tenderer will not
be disqualified (if otherwise deemed to be responsive and acceptable in all other aspects)
but will score zero under PPPFA point allocation.

3.13 Risk assessment (refer to 32-520)
It is a legal requirement in terms of Section 8 (2)(d) of the OHS Act for an employer to carry out risk
assessments, to establish which risks and hazards are attached to the health and safety of persons
due to any work which is performed, any article or substance which is, handled, stored, transported.
A risk assessment is defined as an identification of the hazards present in the activity, work, site,
and an estimate of the extent of the risks involved, considering whatever precautions are already
being taken.
It is essentially a three-stage process:
identification of all hazards.
evaluation of the risks;
Measures to control the risks.
Risk assessments are required to be maintained. This means that significant changes to a process
or activity, or any new process or activity should be subjected to a risk assessment and that if new
hazards come to light during the work process, then these should also be subjected to risk
assessments. Risk assessments for long term processes should be periodically reviewed and
updated. Method statements or written safe work procedures are an effective method as information
and record of the way jobs / tasks must be performed. Daily or issue based or task specific or on
the job risk assessments must be conducted at the place where work is to be performed/ conducted
to allow managers and employees to assess any inherent risks that could have been overlooked
during the initial risk assessment or any changes that might have occurred in a period of absence.
For example if a job / task is extended over a day or halted due to inclement weather.
Guidelines for actual steps involved in a job/task specific risk assessment are:
Each activity is listed.
Specific hazards are identified and listed against each activity.
The magnitude of each risk is rated as Low. Medium or High.
All known documentary and supervisory controls are listed. For instance: What safe work
procedures exist for ladders.

and duly assigned.
Persons responsible for monitoring the task and carrying out the planned job observation
must be nominated.
Completed risk assessment shall be handed to the Eskom project manager representative
for comment and approval.
The relevant section of the risk assessment shall be issued with a Transmittal Note to the
Supervisor nominated as the responsible person; and the names of workmen who have
received instruction on the work content and the sequence of the activities listed in the risk
assessment shall be recorded, and their competence established. This instruction shall be
done through an interpreter if required and recorded on the Pre-Job Brief (Daily Safe Task
Instructions), with reference to applicable Risk Assessments.
3.14 Safe work procedures / method statements
There must be written safe work procedures for all activities, the safe work procedures must be
aligned with the risk assessments. Method statements / written safe work procedure are control

roof to determine the hazards i.e. stability, suitability and strength etc. The consequences of climbing
and control measures that are required to be implemented should form part of the risk assessment
and the fall protection plan. Should the weather change, the wind velocity must be measured before
continuing with roof work.
