Hazard Who is at risk Risk Level Control measures
Outline of risk assessment
Summary of what is proposed in terms of
sequences and set ups.
List whomightbe harmedfrom this
activity
e.g. staff, student, public, etc.
For each hazard, decide level of risk
i.e. if you were to do the activitywithout your
controls
List the measures you will be taking to minimise the risk
identified
e.g. moving trip obstacles, allocate responsibilityfor equipment, film
away from traffic, have bottled water etc.
Assault by person Student (actor) Callum LOW as has remote chance with
moderate harm
Making callum take of his black mask when he does
not need to wear it so his presence does not threaten
the public.
Cold environment Student (actor) LOW as has likely chance with
negligible harm
Bring coats and warm clothing to keep warm during
filming, also try and stay inside as much as possible,
checking weather reports before the day.
Drowning Student (actor) Emma TRIVIAL as remote chance with
moderate risk
In water shot let Emma hold the bowl herself and make
sure everyone watches to make sure she is holding
her breath properly.
Object falling, moving or flying Student (actor) LOW as possible chance with slight
risk
Stay on pavement away from cars and any other
potential hazards.
Slippery surface Student (actor) Millie MEDIUM as likely chance with
slight risk
Don’t run on wet leaves and be cautious when running
to avoid slipping over.
Trip Hazard Student (actor) LOW as possible chance with slight
risk
Identify any trip hazards before shooting footage,
move trip hazards if there are any.

2. Risk matrix – use this to determine risk for each hazard i.e. ‘how
bad and how likely’ Likelihood of Harm
Severity of Harm
Remote
e.g. <1 in 1000 chance
Very unlikely
e.g. 1 in 200 chance
Unlikely
e.g. 1 in 50 chance
Possible
e.g. 1 in 10 chance
Likely
e.g. >1 in 3 chance
Negligible e.g. small bruise Trivial Trivial Trivial Low Low
Slight e.g. small cut, deep bruise Trivial Trivial Low Low Medium
Moderate e.g. deep cut, torn muscle Trivial Low Medium Medium High
Severe e.g. fracture, loss of consciousness Low Medium High High Extremely high
Very Severe e.g. death, permanent disability Low Medium High Extremely high Extremely high
