Risk assessment

Employers are required to assess the significant risks to which their employers and others are exposed as a result of the work activities. Risk assessments should identify the precautions which if implemented would reduce the risks associated with work activities to acceptable levels. HSSL can provide training and forms to enable your employees to undertake risk general and specific risk assessments. We also can assist in undertaking assessments by providing manpower or specialist equipment to quantify the level of risk from specific hazards i.e.

• Forces required to manually handle loads
• Levels of noise to which employees are exposed
• Levels of airborne gases, vapours and dusts
• Levels of lighting in the workplace
