What is a Risk Assessment?
A Risk assessment is the systematic examination of premises and working practices that identifies hazards and to evaluate existing controls. A "suitable and sufficient" risk assessment will take all of the existing control measures into consideration and will make recommendations for changes and/or additional measures to reduce the risk to an acceptable level.
Current legislation is all about risk assessments, Acorn Environmental Health and Safety Consultants are here to guide you through the risk assessment process from identification of hazards to risk quantification, and determining appropriate solutions that will allow you to achieve success in managing the risks. The Regulations require that a "suitable and sufficient" risk assessment be carried out prior to works commencing.
