Occupational risk of an aluminium industry

This paper presents the quantification of occupational risk in ail aluminium plant producing profiles, located in Northern Greece. Risk assessment is based oil the Workgroup Occupational Risk Model (WORM) project, developed in the Netherlands. This model can assess occupational risk at hazard level, activity level, job level and overall company risk. Twenty six job positions have been identified for this plant, such as operators of press extruders, forklift operators, crane operators, painters, and various other workers across the process units. All risk profiles of workers have been quantified and jobs have been ranked according to their risk. Occupational risk has also been assessed for all plant units and the overall company.
