PERC NIS Health and Safety Meeting Brussels, December 14 th, 2009 Our priorities: A European campaign on Risk Assessment What is Risk Assessment? RA is the first step to safer and healthier workplaces and the key to reducing work-related accidents and diseases. RA is the process of evaluating the risks to workers´ safety and health from workplace hazards. It is a systematic examination of all aspects of work that considers: – What could cause injury or harm, – Whether hazards can be eliminated and, if not, – What preventive or protective measures need to be in place to control the risks. Guidance on risk assessment at work, Lux: Office for Official Pub.,..., Good for you. Good for business.

PERC NIS Health and Safety Meeting Brussels, December 14 th, 2009 Our priorities: A European campaign on Risk Assessment Good for you. Good for business. How to do a Risk Assessment? There are two principles which should always be born in mind when carrying out an RA: – Structure the assessment to ensure that all relevant hazards and risks are addressed (e.g. not overlooking secondary tasks, such as cleaning). – When a risk is identified, begin assessment by questioning if the risk can be eliminated. Guidance on risk assessment at work, Lux: Office for Official Pub.,..., 1996.

PERC NIS Health and Safety Meeting Brussels, December 14 th, 2009 Our priorities: A European campaign on Risk Assessment Good for you. Good for business. Five-step approach to RA: 1. Identifying hazards and people at risk 2. Evaluating and prioritising risks 3. Deciding on preventive action 4. Taking action 5. Monitoring and reviewing Remember: RA should be done with the employees’ active involvement
