This document contains a general risk assessment form used by the BBC. It includes lists of potential situational, physical/chemical, and health hazards. It also contains a risk matrix to determine the risk level for each hazard based on the likelihood and severity of potential harm. The form is used to outline the risk assessment for a proposed activity, including location, team members involved, and hazards identified. Signatures are required from the assessor and authorizer once completed.
