This risk assessment document evaluates potential hazards students may face while filming or taking photos on college property. It identifies tripping on stairs or colliding with other students or staff as possible risks. The probability of minor injury from either event is considered possible if control measures are followed. Such measures include holding the banister while recording on stairs and making others aware of filming to prevent collisions. No further action is required provided these control measures are followed.
