This risk assessment record documents potential hazards and control measures for an event at Swinton town hall. It identifies trips, slips and falls as a hazard and lists flooring, wiring, and debris controls. Theft and loss of equipment is also identified, with controls around visibility, transportation, and storage. Accidents are addressed with 24 first aiders on site, first aid boxes, and contacting reception with concerns. The assessment rates likelihood, severity, and overall risk of each hazard to prioritize additional control needs.

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).

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