= Introduction =

'''Risk Assessment''' is a practical method for recognizing workplace hazards, estimating how serious the related risks are, deciding what controls are needed, and checking whether those controls continue to work. For apprentices, trainees, and vocational students, risk assessment is not only a classroom topic. You may use it before operating machinery, handling chemicals, lifting loads, working at height, using electrical equipment, entering unfamiliar work areas, or carrying out non-routine tasks.

A good risk assessment helps you answer three basic questions: '''What can cause harm? How likely and how serious could the harm be? What should be done to prevent or reduce it?''' The exact forms, scoring scales, legal duties, and approval processes vary between countries, industries, and employers. Always follow the procedures, training, supervision, and legal requirements that apply in your workplace.

[[File:Risk Assessment and Risk Management.png|500px|frameless|center]]

The image above shows that risk assessment and risk management are connected. Assessment supports decisions; management turns those decisions into controls, responsibilities, monitoring, and improvement.

{{#ev:youtube|https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sk88kkuIo6g|500|center}}

The video above introduces an important distinction: a '''hazard''' is a source or situation with the potential to cause harm, while '''risk''' concerns the possibility and consequences of harm occurring in a particular situation.

= Core Concepts =

{{BR}}
== Hazard, Risk, and Exposure ==

A '''hazard''' is something that can cause injury, illness, damage, or another unwanted outcome. Examples include an unguarded rotating shaft, a corrosive chemical, excessive noise, a heavy load, a slippery floor, poor lighting, moving vehicles, infectious material, high work pressure, or an unsafe work organization.

'''Risk''' is not the same as hazard. Risk describes the chance that harm may occur together with the seriousness of the possible outcome. The same hazard can create different levels of risk in different situations. A moving forklift creates a different risk in a separated, well-controlled route than in a crowded pedestrian area with blind corners.

'''Exposure''' describes how people come into contact with a hazard. Exposure may depend on frequency, duration, distance, dose, task design, or the number and vulnerability of people involved. When exposure changes, risk may change even if the underlying hazard remains the same.

[[File:HealthHazard.png|300px|frameless|center]]

Hazard symbols can help you recognize certain dangers, especially chemicals. However, a symbol alone does not tell you the full workplace risk. You must also consider the task, exposure, quantity, duration, people involved, and controls already in place.

{{BR}}
== Common Workplace Hazard Groups ==

Different industries use different classification systems, but the following groups are useful starting points.

# [[English:Safety hazard|Safety hazard]]: Moving machinery, sharp edges, work at height, vehicles, electricity, fire, pressure, slips, trips, and falling objects.
# [[English:Chemical hazard|Chemical hazard]]: Solvents, dusts, fumes, gases, cleaning agents, fuels, acids, alkalis, and other substances that can cause harm.
# [[English:Physical hazard|Physical hazard]]: Noise, vibration, heat, cold, radiation, poor lighting, or other physical conditions.
# [[English:Biological hazard|Biological hazard]]: Bacteria, viruses, fungi, blood, body fluids, animals, or contaminated materials.
# [[English:Ergonomic hazard|Ergonomic hazard]]: Awkward posture, repetitive motion, forceful work, heavy handling, poorly designed tools, or unsuitable workstations.
# [[English:Psychosocial hazard|Psychosocial hazard]]: Excessive workload, bullying, violence, unclear responsibilities, isolation, fatigue, or poor work organization.

A single task can contain several hazard types. For example, welding can involve ultraviolet radiation, hot metal, fumes, electrical energy, fire, awkward posture, and nearby people who may also be exposed.

{{#ev:youtube|https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9F5-MIA_Edo|500|center}}

Use hazard-identification videos as prompts for observation, not as substitutes for your workplace procedures. Real tasks require local information, competent supervision, and attention to changing conditions.

{{BR}}
= The Risk Assessment Process =

There is no single universal form for every workplace, but a practical process normally includes hazard identification, identification of people at risk, risk analysis and evaluation, control selection, recording, communication, and review. A simple five-step structure is widely used in occupational safety guidance.

{{BR}}
== Step One: Identify Hazards ==

Look at the work as it is actually done. Do not rely only on how a procedure says it should be done. Useful information can come from:
# [[English:Workplace inspection|Workplace inspection]]: Observe the area, equipment, access routes, storage, housekeeping, lighting, noise, and interaction between tasks.
# [[English:Task analysis|Task analysis]]: Break a job into meaningful steps and ask what could cause harm at each step.
# [[English:Safety data sheet|Safety data sheet]]: Check chemical hazards, handling advice, required controls, storage, and emergency information.
# [[English:Incident investigation|Incident investigation]]: Review injuries, near misses, equipment damage, spills, and abnormal events.
# [[English:Worker consultation|Worker consultation]]: Ask people who perform the task about difficult steps, workarounds, recurring problems, fatigue, and conditions that are easy to miss.
# [[English:Manufacturer information|Manufacturer information]]: Use instructions, maintenance requirements, guards, warnings, and operating limits.
# [[English:Change management|Change management]]: Consider new equipment, materials, software, layouts, staffing, schedules, or procedures before and after implementation.

Hazard identification should include routine work, non-routine work, start-up and shutdown, maintenance, cleaning, emergencies, and tasks done by contractors or visitors where relevant.

{{BR}}
== Step Two: Identify Who Might Be Harmed and How ==

Do not assume only the person performing the task is at risk. Consider apprentices, experienced workers, contractors, cleaners, maintenance staff, customers, patients, drivers, visitors, and people working nearby.

Some people may require particular consideration because of inexperience, language needs, disability, pregnancy, age, temporary medical restrictions, or unfamiliarity with the site. Your role is not to diagnose or make assumptions about individuals. Instead, follow workplace processes for consultation, accommodation, supervision, and specialist advice where required.

Describe the possible harm clearly. For example, instead of writing only "chemical risk," record a more useful scenario such as "splash of corrosive cleaner during dilution could injure eyes or skin."

{{BR}}
== Step Three: Analyze and Evaluate Risk ==

Risk analysis asks how bad the outcome could be and how likely it is to occur in the actual situation. Many workplaces use a '''risk matrix''' that combines categories of likelihood and severity. Other workplaces use qualitative descriptions, numerical methods, exposure measurements, specialist models, or industry-specific tools.

[[File:Risk matrix diagram.svg|500px|frameless|center]]

A risk matrix is a decision aid, not a guarantee of safety. Different organizations define likelihood and severity differently. A score from one company should not automatically be compared with a score from another company.

When estimating risk, consider:
# [[English:Severity|Severity]]: What is the credible level of harm, from minor injury to fatality or serious occupational disease?
# [[English:Likelihood|Likelihood]]: How plausible is the harmful event or exposure under current conditions?
# [[English:Exposure|Exposure]]: How often, how long, how much, and how many people are exposed?
# [[English:Existing control|Existing control]]: What safeguards are already in place, and how reliable are they?
# [[English:Human factors|Human factors]]: Could fatigue, workload, communication, distraction, competence, or time pressure affect performance?
# [[English:Uncertainty|Uncertainty]]: Is important information missing? Are you relying on assumptions that need to be checked?

A high-consequence event may deserve strong controls even when it is considered unlikely. Conversely, repeated low-level exposures can produce serious cumulative harm. Risk assessment must therefore use informed judgment rather than treating a matrix as an automatic calculator.

{{BR}}
== Initial Risk and Residual Risk ==

'''Initial risk''' or '''inherent risk''' generally refers to the level of risk before a proposed new control is applied. Terminology varies, so use your workplace definition.

'''Residual risk''' is the risk that remains after controls are implemented. Residual risk should be reassessed rather than assumed. A guard that is poorly fitted, a ventilation system that is not maintained, or a procedure that is routinely bypassed may provide less protection than expected.

If residual risk is still too high according to workplace criteria, further controls, redesign, specialist advice, or a decision not to perform the task may be necessary.

{{BR}}
== Step Four: Select and Implement Controls ==

The '''hierarchy of controls''' ranks common control strategies from generally more effective to less effective. Prefer controls that remove the hazard or separate people from it rather than controls that depend mainly on individual behavior.

[[File:NIOSH Hierarchy of Controls.png|500px|frameless|center]]

# [[English:Elimination|Elimination]]: Remove the hazard completely, such as designing a task so work at height is no longer required.
# [[English:Substitution|Substitution]]: Replace the hazard with a safer alternative, while checking that the substitute does not create a different serious hazard.
# [[English:Engineering control|Engineering control]]: Isolate people from the hazard through guards, enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, interlocks, lifting devices, or physical separation.
# [[English:Administrative control|Administrative control]]: Change how work is organized through procedures, training, permits, scheduling, restricted access, supervision, signage, or job rotation.
# [[English:Personal protective equipment|Personal protective equipment]]: Use suitable equipment worn by the worker, such as eye protection, hearing protection, gloves, protective clothing, or respiratory protection when required.

PPE can be essential, but it should not be treated automatically as the first or only solution. Stronger controls higher in the hierarchy should be considered first where they are feasible and effective. Often, several layers of control are needed.

[[File:Safety guard for machine.jpg|500px|frameless|center]]

A physical guard or perimeter fence can be an engineering control when it is correctly designed to keep people away from hazardous motion. The specific guard must match the machine, task, access needs, and applicable safety requirements.

[[File:SafetyGlassesAndEarplugs.jpg|500px|frameless|center]]

PPE such as eye and hearing protection can be an important final layer of protection. Selection must be based on the actual hazard and workplace requirements, and the equipment must fit, be maintained, and be used correctly.

{{#ev:youtube|https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXpNjATFSrU|500|center}}

Machine guards are examples of engineering controls. Their effectiveness depends on correct design, installation, maintenance, and use. Never remove, defeat, or bypass a safety device unless an authorized procedure specifically requires it and equivalent protection is provided.

{{BR}}
== Step Five: Record, Communicate, Monitor, and Review ==

A useful risk assessment record should allow another competent person to understand what was assessed and why decisions were made. Depending on your workplace system, record:
# [[English:Task description|Task description]]: What activity, equipment, location, and conditions were assessed?
# [[English:Hazard|Hazard]]: What can cause harm?
# [[English:Potential consequence|Potential consequence]]: What could happen, and to whom?
# [[English:Existing controls|Existing controls]]: What safeguards are already in place?
# [[English:Risk evaluation|Risk evaluation]]: What method and criteria were used?
# [[English:Additional controls|Additional controls]]: What further action is required?
# [[English:Responsibility|Responsibility]]: Who must implement each action?
# [[English:Due date|Due date]]: When should it be completed?
# [[English:Residual risk|Residual risk]]: What risk remains after the controls?
# [[English:Review trigger|Review trigger]]: When or why should the assessment be reviewed?

A risk assessment should be reviewed when work changes, after an incident or near miss, when new information becomes available, when controls fail or deteriorate, or at intervals required by the organization or law.

{{BR}}
= Dynamic and Task-Specific Risk Assessment =

A written assessment cannot predict every changing condition. Some workplaces therefore use a '''dynamic risk assessment''' or similar last-minute check before or during work. The exact method varies, but the principle is to notice changes, reconsider risk, and respond before continuing.

Examples of changing conditions include unexpected weather, a blocked access route, a new contractor entering the area, a failed guard, unusual noise from equipment, a chemical spill, or a lifting task that differs from the plan.

Dynamic assessment does not replace formal planning for predictable hazards. It complements it. If you encounter a hazard outside your authority or competence, stop or make the area safe if you can do so without creating additional danger, then report and seek guidance according to workplace procedure.

{{BR}}
= Practical Example: Maintenance in a Training Workshop =

Imagine that you are helping with a maintenance task on a bench-mounted machine in a vocational training workshop.

'''Hazard identification:''' Possible hazards include unexpected machine start-up, sharp edges, stored energy, dropped tools, poor lighting, and people entering the work area.

'''Who may be harmed:''' The apprentice performing the task, the supervisor, nearby learners, and cleaners may all be affected.

'''Risk analysis:''' Unexpected start-up could cause severe injury. Even if start-up seems unlikely, the consequence is serious enough to require strong controls.

'''Controls:''' Suitable controls may include isolating energy according to the approved procedure, verifying isolation, securing moving parts where required, using guards and barriers, controlling access, using suitable tools, maintaining adequate lighting, and wearing task-specific PPE.

'''Review:''' Before work begins, confirm that the actual machine, energy sources, task, people, and environment match the assessment. If conditions change, stop and reassess.

This example shows why risk assessment is more than filling in a form. The assessment must influence the way the job is prepared, performed, supervised, and reviewed.

{{BR}}
= Risk Assessment in Different Vocational Fields =

{{BR}}
== Construction and Building Trades ==

Typical hazards include work at height, excavations, electrical systems, mobile plant, silica dust, manual handling, falling objects, temporary structures, and changing site conditions. Risk controls often depend on coordination between trades, physical separation, engineered access systems, dust control, permits, and supervision.

{{BR}}
== Manufacturing and Mechatronics ==

Typical hazards include moving machinery, automated systems, stored energy, sharp materials, noise, hot surfaces, chemicals, maintenance work, and interactions between people and vehicles. Risk assessment should consider normal production as well as setup, fault finding, cleaning, and maintenance.

{{BR}}
== Automotive and Transport ==

Typical hazards include moving vehicles, vehicle lifts, batteries, fuels, exhaust, high-voltage systems, compressed air, hot components, and manual handling. New technologies can introduce hazards that require additional competence and specialized procedures.

{{BR}}
== Healthcare and Care Work ==

Typical hazards include infection, sharps, hazardous medicines, patient handling, slips, violence, stress, fatigue, and emergency situations. Effective controls may involve equipment design, staffing, procedures, training, vaccination programs where appropriate, and suitable PPE.

{{BR}}
== Hospitality, Food, and Retail ==

Typical hazards include hot surfaces, knives, slips, cleaning chemicals, lifting, refrigeration equipment, allergens, customer interaction, violence, and time pressure. Risk assessment should consider busy periods, inexperienced staff, deliveries, cleaning, and closing tasks.

{{BR}}
== Information Technology and Office-Based Work ==

Risk assessment also applies where heavy machinery is absent. Relevant hazards can include electrical equipment, poor ergonomics, sedentary work, emergency egress, workload, psychosocial factors, lone work, and data-center environments.

{{BR}}
= Beyond the Matrix: Bow-Tie Thinking =

For higher-risk or complex activities, a team may use methods that show causes, preventive controls, an unwanted event, possible consequences, and mitigating controls. A '''bow-tie analysis''' is one example. It can help teams ask two different questions: "What prevents the event?" and "What reduces harm if the event still occurs?"

{{#ev:youtube|https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vB0O4TPm2q0|500|center}}

Bow-tie methods can be useful for communication because they make barriers visible. However, they require accurate assumptions and should be used by people with suitable knowledge of the process.

{{BR}}
= Quality of a Risk Assessment =

A high-quality assessment is:
# [[English:Specificity|Specific]]: It describes the real task and real hazards rather than using vague phrases.
# [[English:Participation|Participatory]]: It includes input from people who understand the work.
# [[English:Evidence|Evidence-based]]: It uses instructions, incident data, exposure information, standards, and expert advice where needed.
# [[English:Control measure|Control-focused]]: It leads to practical actions rather than stopping at a risk score.
# [[English:Review|Reviewable]]: It records assumptions, responsibilities, and triggers for reassessment.
# [[English:Communication|Communicated]]: Affected people understand the relevant hazards, controls, and limits of the task.

Weak assessments often copy old forms without checking the current work, list PPE as the only control, ignore non-routine activities, score risk without explaining assumptions, or fail to confirm that actions were completed.
