This document contains a risk assessment for students filming and taking photos in college. It identifies two potential hazards: 1) use of camera equipment in public places risking robbery, and 2) using equipment in poor weather conditions risking slips on ice. The risks of each hazard are rated a C (possible/moderate). Existing control measures include CCTV surveillance to deter theft and gritted paths. Further actions planned include students avoiding revealing equipment while in transit and taking extra care in poor weather.
