Outline the steps you propose to take to minimise the risk in the table below. Please copy the page with the table on it if more space is required. If in your opinion there is no risk please print NO RISK and return the form.

HAZARD

WHO MIGHT BE HARMED

IS MORE CONTROL NEEDED TO CONTROL THE RISK

Look for hazards which you could reasonably expect to result in a fire or cause injury. Use the following examples as a guide. There is no need to list individuals by name just think about groups of people doing similar work or who may be affected e.g.

For the hazards listed have sufficient measures already been taken to reduce the risk or are additional controls required; consider the following:

Slipping/Tripping hazards Office Staff

- Meet the standards set by a legal requirement

Chemicals (e.g. battery acid) Maintenance personnel - Comply with a recognised industry standard
Moving parts of machinery (e.g. blades) Contractors - Represent good practice
Work at height (e.g. mezzanine floors) People sharing your work place  
Pressure Systems Operators Have you provided:
Vehicles (e.g. fork-lift trucks) Cleaners  
Electricity Members of the public - Adequate information, instruction or training
Dust (e.g. from grinding)   - Adequate systems or procedures
Fumes (e.g. from vehicle engines) Pay particular attention to:  
Manual Handling Staff with disabilities If so then the risks are adequately controlled, but you need to indicate the precautions you have in place
Noise Visitors where the risk is not adequately controlled, indicate what more you need to do (the action list)
Livestock on stands Inexperienced staff  
Lifting operations Lone workers - they may be more vulnerable  
Fire Hazard e.g. combustible materials (rubbish flammable substances, LPG etc) and ignition sources (flames, smoking, etc) As above Means of escape

Fire fighting equipment

Fire detection and alarms

Staff training

 Fire evacuation plan
