HSE Five Steps Guide to Risk Assessments:

1. Identify the hazards present (a hazard is anything with the potential to cause harm e.g. slippery floors, electrical equipment, lifting heavy objects, stress, machinery, fire etc.).
2. Identify the people at risk from the hazards e.g. employees, contractors, visitors etc. Particularly vulnerable employees should also be considered e.g. young people and new/expectant mothers.
3. Evaluate; taking into account the likelihood and severity of any accidents. Existing controls in place should be identified and evaluated.
4. Record the findings on a suitable form.
5. Review the risk assessment regularly.

Health and Safety Risk Assessments can be provided as part of our bespoke Health and Safety Membership Scheme. This scheme provides an affordable alternative to employing your own, in house Health and Safety specialist.
