What we do.
We are fully qualified and insured to devlop health and safety risk assessments for your businesses. Our process involves several key steps to identify and mitigate potential hazards in a workplace:
1. Identify Hazards
-
A Walk Through the Workplace: Conduct a thorough inspection to identify potential hazards (physical, chemical, biological, ergonomic, etc.).
-
Consult Employees: Engage with staff to gather insights on hazards they may encounter in their roles.
2. Determine Who Might Be Harmed and How
-
Identify Affected Groups: Consider all individuals who may be impacted, including employees, contractors, visitors, and the public.
-
Assess Impact: Evaluate how each group might be affected by identified hazards.
3. Evaluate Risks and Decide on Precautions
-
Risk Evaluation: Determine the likelihood and severity of harm occurring from each hazard.
-
Control Measures: Identify existing controls and assess their effectiveness. If necessary, implement additional measures to mitigate risks (e.g., training, protective equipment).
4. Record Your Findings
-
Document Everything: Clearly outline identified hazards, risk evaluations, existing controls, and any additional measures needed.
-
Use a Standard Format: A structured template can help ensure consistency and completeness.
5. Review and Revise
-
Regular Reviews: Set a schedule for regular reviews of the risk assessment (e.g., annually or after significant changes in the workplace).
-
Update as Necessary: Revise the assessment when new hazards are introduced or if there are changes in processes or regulations.
6. Communicate Findings
-
Share with Staff: Ensure that all employees are aware of the risk assessment and understand the precautions in place.
-
Training: Provide necessary training to ensure employees know how to implement safety measures effectively.
7. Implement Control Measures
-
Action Plan: Develop a clear plan for implementing additional safety measures, including timelines and responsibilities.
-
Monitor Effectiveness: After implementation, monitor the effectiveness of control measures and make adjustments as needed.
8. Documentation and Record Keeping
-
Maintain Records: Keep records of the risk assessment process, findings, and any changes made for accountability and compliance purposes.
