Report Safety Issue

How to use the Risk Matrix

For each potential Safety Issue on a Job Site, consult the below table to assess the potential likelihood of harm occurring and the consequences of harm occurring. The combination of these two factors will result in a risk rating of extreme, high, medium or low. 

Example: When a potential Safety Issue has a likelihood of β€œPossible” and a consequence of β€œSevere”, then according to the below table, the matrix will return a risk rating of β€œHIGH”.

Once you have identified the potential Safety Issue and implemented control measures, again assess the likelihood of harm occurring and the consequences of harm occurring in order to produce a new risk rating to determine whether it is now safe for crew to work in the area.

 Control Measures are Elimination, Substitute, Isolation, Engineering, Administration and PPE:
