It appears that the submission of IGC 2 risk assessment NOT meet the requirements of the Guidance Document and
the Marking Criteria, the overall outcome is considered as a “refer”
Part 1 Background - this part met the requirement.
Part 2 Risk Assessment – Weakness and reasons for refer:
1. Learner nor provided/mentioned who and how might be harm (I.e. Work equipment’s and machinery hazard).
2. Existing /action control outline and language are not appropriate ( i.e. Existing control: Do not wear loose clothes,
Action control: All moving parts has been sufficiently guarded)
3. Immediately is not a time scale.
4. Learner should provide control /action should be in sequence of hierarchy of control and prevention of control
measures (column 4)

PART 3 Prioritize 3 Actions with justification for the selection - The learner has provided 3 priority actions.
Weakness and reasons for refer:
1. Consideration of likelihood and severity: learner should give appropriate scale/categories details of likelihood and
severity rate, ( likelihood: rare, unlikely, likely, very likely, Severity: minor, major, catastrophic)
2. Consideration of likelihood and severity: Lerner not provided / mentioned missing require enough information i.e., the
number of workers at sight, how often the activities is carried out and how widespread is risk is.

3. How effective the action is likely to be control the risk : learner not justified the time scale and time scale are not
same as mentioned in risk assessment table.
