FAQs
What is a risk assessment?
Under the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, a risk assessment is a legal requirement for identifying hazards in the workplace and suggesting solutions to eliminate or mitigate them.
Is the blank risk assessment template suitable for any industry?
Yes – we want our resources to be as useful as possible. This risk assessment is fully customisable, so you can alter it to the specific needs of your business, no matter your industry.
How often should I review a risk assessment completed using this template?
We’re here to cut down on admin time, but you still need to check your risk assessment regularly to make sure it’s up to scratch for the task at hand.
At the very least, risk assessments should be reviewed annually if no changes have occurred.
However, if there have been changes to your site or working practices, you’ll need to do a full review so nothing is missed and your team stays fully protected.
Do I still need a method statement as well as this risk assessment?
Method statements aren’t a legal requirement, but they are incredibly useful for higher-risk projects, e.g. demolition. They can be built off the back of your risk assessment, but detail the step-by-step process you’ll be undertaking.
