Identifying the population at risk

A suitable and sufficient risk assessment needs to identify all those that are potentially at risk and how. When considering who is at risk it is important to r all those who may be affected by the activity being assessed, not just those directly involved. Therefore the assessment would need to consider;
  • Employees 
  • Maintenance staff 
  • Cleaners 
  • Contractors, 
  • Visitors
  • General public 
Within these groups there might be specific groups at risk such as young persons, new or expectant mothers and disabled persons (learning or physical disability) - see later in this section.
