Risk Assessment

A useful risk assessment helps people make informed decisions about a real situation. Explore how to identify hazards, consider proportionate controls and communicate what has been agreed, helping staff move beyond generic paperwork to an approach that reflects people and their circumstances.

Use workplace and care examples to consider the balance between managing risk and enabling worthwhile activity. Reflect on how changing needs, environments or tasks affect the assessment, and why review and clear communication are essential to keeping agreed arrangements relevant.
