Occupational Health and Safety at Work risk assessment

Explanation:

This seems to be a form for assessment of risk to health and safety at work.

"Occupational health and safety is a cross-disciplinary area concerned with protecting the safety, health and welfare of people engaged in work or employment. The goal of all occupational health and safety programs is to foster a safe work environment."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occupational_safety_and_health

Such risk assessment forms in the UK are provided by the Health and Safety Executive.

http://www.hse.gov.uk/contact/faqs/riskassess.htm

Here is a definition of this risk assessment profile form from Brazil:

"O Perfil Profissiográfico Previdenciário (PPP) é um formulário com campos a serem preenchidos com todas as informações relativas ao empregado, como por exemplo, a atividade que exerce, o agente nocivo ao qual é exposto, a intensidade e a concentração do agente, exames médicos clínicos, além de dados referentes à empresa."

I meant to remove "at work" out of my answer as it is tautological. Sorry.

It should read Occupational Health and Safety Risk Assessment

Some further information on Occupational Health and Safety Risk Assessment which seems to match the Brazilian definition:

Given the definitions of the PPP that I have found, it looks like a assessment of a worker's exposure to harmful substances, used as a legal support for any claim they might wish to make. I think an equivalent in English would be called:

Occupational Health and Safety Assessment.

"O Perfil Profissiográfico Previdenciário, é o documento que vai habilitar, o trabalhador exposto a agentes nocivos a saúde, a pleitear aposentadoria especial. A ausência deste documento inviabiliza o processo de aposentadoria especial.

Definições
Perfil Profissiográfico Previdenciário ( PPP ), é um resumo da vida laboral do trabalhador, apresentado em formulário próprio instituído pelo INSS, contendo informações detalhadas sobre as atividades do trabalhador, exposição a agentes nocivos à saúde, resultados de exames médicos e informações administrativas. Este documento serve de guia para o processo de aposentadoria especial."
