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 harmed
from 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 awayfrom
traffic, have bottled water etc.

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
