The risk of harm associated with any particular hazard or activity may be rated, using the following Risk Matrix.
Consequences Probability
Low - Unlikely Medium - Likely High - Very Likely
Minor 1 4 7
Moderate 2 5 8
Severe 3 6 9
(1-3 – Low Acceptable Risk 4-6 – Medium Risk 7- 9 – High Risk)
Control measures must be in place to bring risk rating as Low As Reasonably Practicable and therefore acceptable. (ALARP). Controls must be monitored to ensure they are effective and
the risk remains acceptable.
