• Use the Risk Matrix to determine the risk rating for this hazard

  

• What is the likelihood of an incident occurring? (1= Improbable, 2 = Remote, 3 = Possible, 4 = likely, 5 = certain)

• What would be the severity of the impact of the incident? (1= insignificant, 2 = minor, 3 = moderate, 4 = significant, 5 = severe)

• Overall risk level

• Risk number is

  Select 20-25 Extreme 15-19 Very High 10-14 High 5-9 Medium 1-4 Low

  • 20-25 Extreme
  • 15-19 Very High
  • 10-14 High
  • 5-9 Medium
  • 1-4 Low

• The overall (estimated) risk rating for this manual handling task is Extreme and the task should not be executed before introducing mitigation controls to reduce risk.

• The overall (estimated) risk rating for this manual handling task is very high and the task should not be executed before introducing mitigation controls to reduce risk.

• The overall (estimated) risk rating for this manual handling task is high and the task should not be executed before introducing mitigation controls to reduce risk.

• Actions will be raised within this assessment to reduce the risk rating for this task by implementing improved control measures
