Risk Assessment Plan

Overview:

The purpose of risk management is to exert influence and control on factors that could
have a negative impact on the Health, Safety and Welfare at work for ThirdForce
employees, visitors and contractors.

The Risk Assessment Plan provides the framework to manage Health & Safety on an
ongoing basis to ensure optimum safety levels are maintained and compliancy
requirements are intact.

Frequency:

Risk Assessments will be conducted on an annual basis (June/July) in Dublin, London and
the Field. These Risk Assessments will follow the adopted risk assessment methodology
and will be comprehensively captured and auctioned upon where applicable.

Methodology:

As recommended by IBEC and HeartBeat (our Safety Advisors) the below risk assessment
methodology has been adopted by ThirdForce, this is referred to as the Risk Matrix.
