Classify work activities: prepare a list of work activities covering premises, plant, people and procedures.
Identify Hazards: Identify all significant hazards relating to each work activity. Considering who might be harmed and how
Determine risk: make a subjective estimate of the risk associated with each hazard assuming that planned or existing health and safety precautions are in place. Assessors should also consider the effectiveness of the controls and the consequences of their failure.
Decide is risk is tolerable: judge whether planned or existing OH&S precautions (if any) are sufficient to keep the hazard under control and meet legal requirements.
Prepare a risk control plan (if necessary): prepare a plan to deal with any of the issues found by the assessment to require attention. Organisations should ensure that new and existing controls remain in place and are effective.
Review adequacy of action plan: re-assess risks on the basis of the revised controls and check that risks will be tolerable.
