(3) What controls exist to reduce
risk
Be very careful and watch what
your doing, wear grippy shoes.
Avoid strangers and do not speak
to them, keep calm and ring an
adult if anything happens.
Try to keep the equipment safe and
sheltered to avid water damage
because its expensive and not
easy to replace.
Watch carefully where you’re going
and wear sensible footwear, also
make sure the weather isn’t bad
because it could increase the risk
even more if slippy.
(4) What action can be taken
to further reduce risk?
Maybe check the weather prior to
going to the location and use your
contingency day so it won’t be
raining hopefully.
Try find a location in your local
area, so therefore you’re familiar
with the place and you will feel
safer.
Check the weather prior to your
photoshoot day to see if the
weathers okay. If it is bad use your
contingency day.
Make sure its day light and not
night time so you can clearly see
where you’re going.
 1. List hazards something with the potential to cause harm here:
Seek to quantify the level of risk the likelihood of harm arising based on the number of persons affected, how often they are exposed to the hazard and the
severity of any consequence.
2. List groups of people who are especially at risk from the significant hazards which you have identified
3. List existing controls here or note where the information may be found
4. List the risks which are not adequately controlled and the action you will take. Have regard for the level of risk, the cost of any action and the benefit you expect to
gain.

RISK RATING

a SEVERITY b LIKELIHOOD c FINAL SCORE RATING: what needs to be done

5 Dying or being permanently disabled
4 Serious injury/long term illness
3 Temporary disability/3 days off sick
5 Will almost certainly happen 16-25 Stop! Do not start activity again until risk is
controlled
4 Highly likely to happen 10-15 High risk level, High priority. Take action
straight away to control the risk
3 Not so likely 6-9 Medium risk level. Tighten up controls and

2 Will need medical attention
1 Minor injury eg. Bruise, graze
Action Required
make a plan to do something about risk
2 Even less likely 3-5 Fairly low risk level. Low priority but keep
possible action in mind
1 Unlikely to happen at all 1-2 Low or trivial risk. No further action
required.
