The risk assessment record summarizes potential hazards and control measures for an Eccles college classroom. It identifies trips, slips, falls and ensuring clear walkways as a low risk. Fire hazards are also considered low risk due to fire alarms and restricting liquids near electronics. First aid risks are low as the site has 24 first aiders, a first aid box, and procedures to contact reception in emergencies. The record rates likelihood, severity and overall risk of each hazard to prioritize further safety actions.

The three columns (L,S,R) are for assessing the level or degree of risk. The first (L) is for an assessment of the likelihood of the hazard taking place, the second (S) for
the severity of the hazard, both based on the following:-
(L) LIKELIHOOD (S) SEVERITY OF HAZARD (R) RISK LEVEL is product of Likelihood and Severity
(LxS).
1. Hazard exists very infrequently; limited numbers 1. Could cause minor injury only
exposed 2. Could cause major injury/3 day or more Very high risks score 6 or 9
2. Likely to occur; hazard exists intermittently or occurs absence Moderate risks score 3 or 4
occasionally 3. Could cause fatality/severe injury Low priority risks score 1 or 2

2. 3. Likely to occur soon; permanent hazard or occurs
daily / repeatedly; many may be exposed VERY HIGH RISKS NEED IMMEDIATE ACTION
