Risk Level Thresholds
Risk is considered broadly acceptable. No further risk reduction is required. Risk is managed as part of the ESH general project procedures and periodically confirmed that the risk continues to remain low.
1-4 = Low Risk:
Further risk reduction is at management discretion.
Risk is acceptable if reasonable safeguards and controls are in place to reduce the hazard to ALARP. Responsibility is to be assigned for proactive management with active monitoring defined as part of the
5-9 = Medium Risk:
ESH general project procedures.
Intolerable risk that must be eliminated or reduced by controls to ALARP immediately. Where the risk remains at this level following the identification of all practical controls a formal plan is to be developed
10-25 = High Risk:
that assigns responsibility for the implementation of controls and a means of proactive monitoring.
LEVEL LIKLIHOOD CLASSIFICATIONS
Unlikely Consequence unheard of:/not known to have occurred; very unlikely to occur under normal conditions.
Rare Consequence know to have occurred in construction industry; unlikely to occur in normal conditions.
Possible Consequence has occurred within the company; may occur under normal operating conditions.
Likely Consequence occur several times per year within the company; very likely to occur at sometime under normal operating conditions.
Very likely Consequence occurs several times per year at similar projects/locations; can be reasonably expected to occur under normal operating conditions.
