A risk assessment is the process of identifying potential hazards, evaluating the likelihood and severity of harm, and implementing measures to minimise or eliminate those risks. It forms the foundation of effective health and safety management.
Employers are legally required to carry out risk assessments to protect employees, visitors, and contractors from injury or illness. A thorough risk assessment helps uncover hidden dangers and informs practical steps to create a safer working environment.
Consistently conducting and reviewing risk assessments not only reduces accidents and health issues but also demonstrates your organisation’s commitment to wellbeing and regulatory compliance. It fosters a culture of safety awareness and continuous improvement.
