Risk Assessment
Comprehensive risk assessment service
Risk assessment is at the heart of the legislation and is the key to achieving success in managing health and safety. The Regulations require that a "suitable and sufficient" risk assessment be carried out BEFORE work is started. If you have not fulfilled this most basic of requirements you are in breach of the law and may face enforcement action or even be prosecuted.
Risk assessment is the systematic examination of premises and working practices to identify hazards and to evaluate existing controls. A "suitable and sufficient" risk assessment will take all of the existing control measures into consideration and will make recommendations for changes and/or additional measures to reduce the risk to an acceptable level.
Risk Assessment Services
In addition to a general risk assessment of your premises, activities and working practices we can also carry out the following types of specific assessment: -
- Display Screen Equipment
- Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH)
- Fire (further details)
- Job Safety Analysis
- Manual Handling
- Occupational Stress
- Personal Protective Equipment
- Work Equipment
The risk assessment process will:
- Identify hazards and assess the risks that may arise after taking into consideration the actual circumstances found on site;
- Provide you with a detailed report and an "Action Plan" of prioritised recommendations;
- Where appropriate we will also design and document a Safe System of Work.
The consultant will guide you through the process of implementing the recommendations.
Having these risk assessments done provides compliance with the requirement of the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 for "suitable and sufficient" risk assessments.
