Hazard Who is at risk? Risk Level Control measures
The filming day is very long and
lasts from about 9am-4pm. Cast
and crew could get very worn out
and tired.
The cast and crew Medium Ensuring short breaks after long periods of
w orking, adequate w ater breaks and making sure
food is consumed at appropriate times of the day
to reduce fatigue.
Litter used for any props in
filming (e.g. food w rappers,
drinks bottles) could be left,
w hich w ould cause
littering/environmental damage.
The environment High Make sure that a little bag is carried w ith us to
collect any rubbish w e use, and/or ensure all
w aste is disposed of in a bin to prevent littering.Whilst filming w e could be loud
and accidentally disrupt
surrounding classes or people
w orking.
The public, staff and students Medium Remain professional and concentrated at all times
to ensure w e stay at an acceptable level; also,
w arn any surrounding classrooms if w e are
planning to be loud so they are aw are of this.
If there has been rain the day
before, surfaces around college
may be slippery, especially if
people have w alked through
multiple times or on the grassy
areas, so people may slip over.
Cast and crew Low We w illhave to be cautious w hen w e are w alking
on surfaces that could be deemed slip hazards so
that w e do not slip over; do not run through these
surfaces either.
Whilst moving around college
and Castlefield, there are stairs
that w e could trip and fall dow n,
and any raised surfaces could
cause us to trip w hilst w e w ere
focusing on the camera.
Cast and crew Low Before filming in each place, or during the location
recce, checkout any hazards that could cause us
to trip so w e are careful. Do not use the camera
w hen descending stairs to avoid distraction and
accident.
Lack of management control
could lead to disorganisation,
w here ideas are not being
communicated properly and lead
to arguments/unsuccessful
filming
Cast and crew , our project Low As a group, w e w ill fully plan every aspect of the
day so that w e are prepared. We also need to
communicate w ell and share ideas and roles to
w ork smoothly, and adapt to any difficulties w e
occur in order to manage the filming w ell.

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
