Identify hazards
and risk factors
that have the
potential to cause
harm (hazard
identification)
1
Analyze and
evaluate the risk
associated with
that hazard (risk
analysis, and risk
evaluation).
2
Determine
appropriate ways
to eliminate the
hazard, or control
the risk when the
hazard cannot be
eliminated (risk
control)

4. Why is risk assessment important?
Risk assessments are very important as
they form an integral part of an
occupational health and safety
management plan. They help to:
Create awareness of hazards and risk.
Identify who may be at risk (e.g.,
employees, cleaners, visitors, contractors,
the public, etc.).
Determine whether a control program is
required for a particular hazard.
5. What are methods of
hazard control?
Once you have
established the priorities,
the organization can
decide on ways to control
each specific hazard.
Hazard control methods
are often grouped into the
following categories:
Elimination (including
substitution).
Engineering controls. Administrative controls.
Personal protective
equipment.
