advance. Further, it is necessarily required for any organization to ensure that proper
tools and equipments are being employed so that employees can work efficiently
(Hughes and Ferrett, 2015). The present assignment is based on risk assessment of
hazards of working in engineering workshop along with recording of accidents etc.
