Risk Assessment: Assessing the Risk of Hazards in the Workplace

health & safety

Demystified

A risk assessment is a logical approach to deciding what hazards in the workplace could lead to injury or ill-health through normal and foreseeable work practices. This could be to employees or non-employees, both at their workplace or when they are out and about carrying out work activities, such as deliveries, for example.
