Blank Risk Assessment Forms
by Steve Cole, Sep 10, 2015
Project risk management begins with blank risk assessment forms. Completing them can be a tedious task but doing it right will ensure you remain compliant with OHS legislation Australia. A solid risk assessment format will help workers and managers understand the full requirements of remaining compliant but getting a hold of risk assessment online can be difficult. So for your convenience SafeWorkPro has provided these examples of risk assessment forms.
1: Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS)
This construction risk assessment form outlines the various duty holders, hazards that require control measures and provides a risk management framework. For more on SWMS and how to explain risk assessment, you can visit SafeWorkPro’s information page here.
2: Risk assessment sheets
The below blank risk assessment form was designed by SafeWorkPro based on the model offered by Safe Work Australia. Although this is not a completed risk assessment, it does show you what is required for total compliance. The below risk assessment layout serves as a decent starting point but for more information on risk assessment you can read more here.
3: Risk Assessment Matrix
This risk assessment form puts a numerical value on the level of danger associated with high risk construction work. It’s based on the likelihood of a hazard resulting in injury and multiplied with the severity of injury the hazard is likely to cause. For more information on risk assessment matrices you can read more here.
