This risk assessment identifies hazards students may face when filming or taking photos in the college canteen. Tripping hazards from wet floors or crowded corridors pose a minor injury risk. A fire could occur, presenting a risk of major injuries or death. Existing controls include wet floor signs, conducting filming when corridors are clear, and fire alarms/exits. Further actions include alerting staff if injuries occur and exiting safely in case of fire.

Existing control

the risk
What further control
measures are required
when and by whom
• There may be wet
floors in the area, so
people may trip over.
• The corridors may
have a lot of people
in the corridor,
meaning people
might get knocked
over.
• A fire may occur in
the area.
St - Students
who attend the
college.
Sf - Teachers
and staff who
work in the
college.
Cl – Cleaners
who work in the
college
Min- Minor injury is most
likely, if someone trips or is
knocked over it is unlikely
they will sustain serious
injuries. Only a slight
knock such as bumps and
bruises.
F/Maj – A fire may occur
in the area which could
cause major injuries or
even death in extreme
circumstances. Someone
may have serious burns
Possible
Unlikely
C
A
Make sure that if an area
of the floor is wet that a
wet floor sign has been
used so people are aware
that they could trip over.
Make sure to do the VOX
POP’s when the corridors
are clear so we are not in
the way.
Fire alarms and fire exits
are in the area so if on
does occur people will be
alerted and know how to
leave and where to go.
If someone is hurt we will
alert a member of staff in
case the person needs
medical attention.
Exit through the nearest
fire exit and go to the fire
assembly point.
