Webinar on The Risk Assessment Process

Overview: A properly implemented program of risk assessments can assist in the prevention of injuries, fatalities, property damage incidents and other losses. This not only helps to prevent human loss and suffering, but also assists the effective management and finance of any business or organization. The process will also help to protect the organizations commercial reputation.

This course is based on the "Five Steps" approach to Risk Assessment:

• Identifying the hazards
• Identifying who may be harmed
• Estimating the Risk and ensuring that it is Low Enough
  • Existing controls
  • Evaluating Remaining Risk
  • Identifying Additional Control Measures
• Recording the findings
• Review and Revising the Assessment

A significant proportion of the Webinar involves looking at a series of "real life" situation and identifying what the associated hazards are. There will be consideration of who may be harmed by these hazards and the focus will be wider than just the immediate workforce (to include visitors, members of the public, contractors, etc). After analysis of the hazards, there will be a tutor led discussion on the control measures that could be employed to either avoid (preferably) or control the hazards. In some cases, different solutions will be proposed. This helps to demonstrate that the process is not "prescriptive", but that there may well be more than one approach that is effective and to highlight the need for the Control Measures to be designed to the circumstances that exist within your Company. Consideration will be given to the "hierarchy of control", showing the importance of electing the most appropriate and effective solution.

Record keeping and the need to keep the risk assessments up to date (reviewing and revising) will be discussed. 

Why should you attend: Therisk assessment process is an important part in protecting your workers and your business, as well as complying with the law. The process helps you to focus on the risks that really matter in your business - the ones with the potential to cause harm. In many cases, simple and straightforward measures can be used to control risks. For many businesses this may mean simple, cheap and effective measures to ensure that their most valuable asset (the workforce) is protected.
