This risk assessment document evaluates potential hazards for students filming and taking photos in a college classroom. It identifies four main hazards: furniture, computers, potential fire risks, and bags. For each hazard, it rates the degree of risk, lists existing control measures, and proposes further actions to control risks. Furniture and bags pose minor risks, computers and fire risks present minor to major risks, and all risks have control measures in place. The document plans to ensure furniture is out of the way, liquids are away from computers, fire exits are clear, and bags are under tables to further control risks.
