RISK ASSESSMENT GUIDE : RISK MUST BE REDUCED TO AS LOW AS REASONABLY PRACTICABLE (ALARP)
STEP 1 : CONSIDER SEVERITY OF HARM (S) STEP 2 : CONSIDER LIKELIHOOD (L) STEP 3:CALCULATE RISK
1: NEGLIGIBLE: Near Miss or Simple First Aid/ Simple Repairs by ship staff/ Spill within spill trays 1: IMPROBABLE-Event not expected to occur RISK RATING RR = S x L
2: MINOR : Injury require Medical Treatment; MTC/ Repair need external assistance / Spill on deck < 1 m3 2 : RARE: Expected to occur in exceptional situations RR RISK CATEGORY
MODERATE: Serious injury or multiple minor injuries; LTI / Repairs affecting seaworthiness of ship leading to CoC / Spill on
3: 3: POSSIBLE: May occur at some time / occurred in the past
deck > 1 m3 1- 5 L - LOW
CRITICAL : Single fatality, Serious injuries, permanent disability / Requires lay up repairs or extensive drydockings, 3rd
4: 4: LIKELY : Possibility of occurrence of isolated incidents
party claims/ Spill overboard < 100L 6 - 10 M - MEDIUM
CATASTROPHIC : Mutiple Fatalaities or Long Term disabilities/ Total Loss of ship or immediate layup/dry-docking for major
5: 5: CERTAIN: Is expected to occur in most situations
repairs / Major overboard spill > 100 L 11 - 25 H - HIGH

Final Asesssment : Provided no deviations from the recommended control measures, the residual risk assessed is As Low As Resonably Practicable (ALARP).
Supplementary measures include correct use of PPE & Tool Box talks that ensure all workers are fully aware of the control measures.

Residual risk - HIGH : If RR is "High" category, written instructions for conducting the job and approval shall be obtained from the shore office to commence the operation.
Residual risk - MEDIUM: If RR is "Medium" , a constant monitoring of events shall be maintained and ensure all identified preventative and mitigating measures are always in place.
