Hazard Identification & Risk Assessment is a process that is part of the Risk Management process. Hazard Identification includes the various identification techniques while the Risk Assessment evaluates the risk level so that appropriate control measures are adopted and implemented.

A nail gun is used to drive the nail into the material e.g., wood, metal, etc. The nail gun can be either pneumatic or electrical driven. The pneumatic nail gun uses air pressure to create the intense pressure capable of driving the nail into the material. The moment, the user squeezes the trigger, the intense air pressure in the barrel drives the nail into the wood.

The nail gun is widely used in routine life, especially in construction, civil, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, and other industries. People from the professional and general industries also use it.

Due to the working environment, and other factors the user is at great risk, hence it is mandatory that a formal risk assessment is conducted and in the light of the findings, the appropriate controls are adapted and implemented so that the corresponding risk level is mitigated to a minimum.
