Example risk assessment templates

Download Electronic Risk Score Calculator Here: Riskex Risk Score Calculator 1

These completed examples from UK Health and Safety Directive in their cases studies section show really well how many other other businesses similar to yours  have tackled the sometime taunting task of completing even basic risk assessments and analysis. The principals of risk assessment are the same for whatever industry you are in, including security risk assessments. These example risk assessments can easily be adapted to suit your unique needs. The basic participles are risk assessment are relatively simple:

  • identify risks and hazards that you business and workers are exposed to
  • analyse the risks to get a better understanding (rank and prioritize using our electronic risk score calculator)
  • work out what controls you already have in place and how effective they are
  • identify the extra steps you need to take to control the risks and develop a plan on how to achieve that.

Its pointless to  just copy it and put your own company name on another risk assessment form. You might get a warm fuzzy feeling and sleep better at night  but would not comply with legislative requirements and more importantly wont help your business or protect your workers. You will surprised what else you learn about your business by going through the risk assessment process – the spin offs of doing safety and risk management well

They also have a new online tool designed for low risk office type environments. See it here: HSE’s new web-based tool. You just have to answer a few simple questions then print out your risk assessment.

Here are the links to their example risk assessments
