Soil testing work
Date of Assessment: 02-10-2023
Consequence Rating
(C)
Stages in Risk Assessment: - 1 2 3 4 5 Legend:
⮚ Assess risks using guidelines below (Risk = L x C)
⮚ Attempt to reduce risk to as low a value as possible by applying
additional controls / actions - even if the initial assessment falls into the
“white” zone
⮚ Re-assess risks
⮚ Sign form to confirm all controls and actions shall be implemented

Health & Safety Risk Assessment Guidelines
Rating Likelihood of Occurrence (L) Consequence(s) (C)
1
Highly Unlikely – Unforeseeable, very short
exposure time
Minor accident – Minor injury - No Lost Time Accident (LTA)
2
Unlikely – Not reasonably foreseeable, short
exposure time
Injury requiring first aid treatment – Able to continue working - No LTA
3
Possible – May occur if control measures
insufficiently robust
Major injury / disability – Results in lasting effect, some disability, cannot immediately return to work – LTA
4 Likely – Foreseeable, prolonged exposure Permanent Consequences – Disability that requires a change in job – LTA
5 Almost Certain – Foreseeable, Imminent danger Potential Fatality
Environmental Risk Assessment Guidelines
Rating Likelihood of Occurrence (L) Consequence(s) (C)
1
Highly Unlikely – Unforeseeable, very short
exposure time
No Noticeable Impact – Negligible disturbance to the ecosystem. No local criticism. Well within legal requirements
2
Unlikely – Not reasonably foreseeable, short
exposure time
Minor Impact – Short-term disturbance to the ecosystem. Some local criticism. Within legal requirements

2. Power Services India Risk Assessment
3
Possible – May occur if control measures
insufficiently robust
Medium Impact – Medium-term disturbance to the ecosystem if exposure persists. Local / Third Party criticism / adverse
publicity. Complies with legal requirements
4 Likely – Foreseeable, prolonged exposure Major Impact – Long-term damage to the ecosystem. Outside legal requirements
5 Almost Certain – Foreseeable, Imminent danger
Catastrophic Impact – Irreparable damage to the ecological system. Political criticism / adverse publicity / prosecution.
Significantly outside legal requirements.
