RISK SCORE CALCULATOR Use the Risk Score Calculator to Determine the Level of Risk of each Hazard What would be the CONSEQUENCE of an occurrence be? What is the LIKELIHOOD of an occurrence? Hierarchy of Controls Frequent/Almost certain (5) Continuous or will happen frequently Often (4) 6 to 12 times a year Likely (3) 1 to 5 times a year Possible (2) Once every 5 years Rarely (1) Less than once every 5 years Can the hazard be Eliminated or removed from the work place? Catastrophic (5) Multiple Fatalities High 25 High 20 High 15 Medium 10 Medium 5 Can the product or process be substituted for a less hazardous alternative? Serious (4) Class 1 single fatality High 20 High 16 High 12 Medium 8 Low 4 Can the hazard be engineered away with guards or barriers? Moderate (3) Class2 (AWI or LTI) or Class 1 Permanently disabling effects High 15 High 12 Medium 9 Medium 6 Low 3 Can Administration Controls be adopted I.e. procedures, job rotation etc. Minor (2) Medical attention needed, no work restrictions.
