SEV Table

This document provides a table that outlines criteria for rating three factors - injury severity, exposure, and avoidance - on scales from serious/high/not possible to minor/prevented/likely. For injury severity, criteria include fatality, amputation, disability, and first aid. Exposure criteria assess frequency of exposure. Avoidance criteria evaluate ability to escape hazards based on clearance, speeds, warnings and positioning. Ratings are assigned based on the most applicable criterion for each factor.

Criteria (Examples) - choose most likely Read criteria from the top for
Factor Rating each factor
Normally non-reversible; likely will not return to the same job after
recovery from incident:
– fatality
Serious
– limb amputation
S3
– long term disability
– chronic illness
If any of the above are applicable, the rating is SERIOUS
Normally reversible; likely will return to the same job after recovery from
incident:
– broken bones
– severe laceration
Injury Severity Moderate
– short hospitalization
S2
– short term disability
– loss time (multi-day)
– fingertip amputation (not thumb)
If any of the above are applicable, the rating is MODERATE
First aid; no recovery required before returning to job:
– bruising
Minor – small cuts
S1 – no loss time (multi-day)
– does not require attention by a medical doctor
If any of the above are applicable, the rating is MINOR
- Exposure to hazard(s) is effectively mitigated by design.
- Use of guards prevents exposure or access to the hazard(s). If an
Prevented interlocked guard is selected , the third bullet must also be met.
E0 - If functional safety is used as a risk reduction measure, the functional
safety performance (PL) meets or exceeds the required functional safety
performance (PLf)
If any of the above are applicable, the rating is PREVENTED
Exposure Typically more than once per hour
– Frequent or multiple short duration
High
– Durations/situations which could lead to task creep and does not include
E2
teach
If any of the above are applicable, the rating is HIGH
– Typically less than or once per day or shift
Low – Occasional short durations
E1
If either of the above are applicable, the rating is LOW
– Insufficient clearance to move out of the way and safety-rated reduced
speed control is not used
– The robot system layout causes the operator to be trapped, with the
Not Possible
escape route toward the hazard
A3
– Safeguarding is not expected to offer protection from the process hazard
(e.g. explosion or eruption hazard)
If any of the above are applicable, the rating is NOT POSSIBLE
– insufficient clearance to move out of the way and safety-rated reduced
speed control is used
Avoidance – obstructed path to move to safe area
Not Likely
– hazard is moving faster than reduced speed (250 mm/sec)
A2
– inadequate warning/reaction time
– might not perceive the hazard exists
If any of the above are applicable, the rating is NOT LIKELY
– sufficient clearance to move out of the way
– hazard is incapable of moving greater than reduced speed (250 mm/sec)
Likely
– adequate warning/reaction time
A1
– positioned in a safe location away from the hazard
If any of the above are applicable, the rating is LIKELY
