Risk

(2) Who might be harmed and how?

(3) What controls exist to reduce

risk

(4) What action can be taken

to further reduce risk?

If my model was to sit on anything

harmful towards them when posing
for my photoshoot.

My model

Ensure she is extra careful when

sitting down and ensuring there is
nothing that may harm her.

My crew will ensure that my model

is safe.

If my model was to fall and slip when

getting to the position that I wanted
them.

My model

There would be help from crew

members to ensure she is safe.

If we see that it is seriously

dangers and we are putting my
model at major risk then we will
use a different location.

Fall and slip during photography due

to the weather.

Everyone involved with the

photography.

Have crew members ensure it is

safe to work.

Use a different location.

1. List hazards something with the potential to cause harm here:

Seek to quantify the level of risk the likelihood of harm arising based on the number of persons affected, how often they are exposed to the hazard and the
severity of any consequence.
2. List groups of people who are especially at risk from the significant hazards which you have identified
3. List existing controls here or note where the information may be found
4. List the risks which are not adequately controlled and the action you will take. Have regard for the level of risk, the cost of any action and the benefit you expect to
gain.

RISK RATING
a SEVERITY

b LIKELIHOOD

c FINAL SCORE RATING: what needs to be done

16-25 Stop! Do not start activity again until risk is

controlled

Dying or being permanently disabled

Will almost certainly happen

Serious injury/long term illness

Highly likely to happen

Temporary disability/3 days off sick

Not so likely

Will need medical attention

Even less likely

Minor injury eg. Bruise, graze

Unlikely to happen at all

10-15 High risk level, High priority. Take action

straight away to control the risk
6-9
Medium risk level. Tighten up controls and
make a plan to do something about risk
3-5
Fairly low risk level. Low priority but keep
possible action in mind
1-2
Low or trivial risk. No further action
required.

SO: a x b = c
Action Required

Responsible Person

Date for Completion

There was no action required as we prevented every risk.
