Definitely! A risk matrix is a graphical aid employed to evaluate the possibility and
seriousness of dangers linked with particular activities or hazards. We'll devise a
simplified version of this tool to display the level of risk related to utilizing an
unstable ladder when installing banners at Waterfront Cinema.

A simple risk matrix is provided below:

| Likelihood/Severity | Negligible | Minor | Moderate | Major | Severe |

|-----------------------|------------|----------|----------|----------|----------|

| Almost Certain | Low | Medium | High | High | Extreme |

| Likely | Low | Medium | Medium | High | Extreme |

| Possible | Low | Low | Medium | High | Extreme |

| Unlikely | Low | Low | Low | Medium | High |

| Rare | Low | Low | Low | Medium | High |

To evaluate the situation, we will analyze both the probability and impact of
utilizing the defective ladder during banner hanging.

Probability: Assessing the ladder as both faulty and unstable, it is probable that an
accident would ensue if someone were to utilize it. Therefore, we rate its
likelihood as "Likely."

Assessment: The severity of the situation, given the possible harm that could be
caused by a defective ladder resulting in falling off, would warrant an assessment
rating of "Major" or "Severe."

Let's determine where the intersection of "Likely" and either "Major" or "Severe"
occurs on the risk matrix.
| Likelihood/Severity | Negligible | Minor | Moderate | Major | Severe |

|-----------------------|------------|----------|----------|----------|----------|

| Almost Certain | Low | Medium | High | High | Extreme |

| Likely | Low | Medium | Medium | High | Extreme |

| Possible | Low | Low | Medium | High | Extreme |

| Unlikely | Low | Low | Low | Medium | High |

| Rare | Low | Low | Low | Medium | High |

The matrix clearly shows that when the likelihood is "Likely" and severity ranges
between "Major" to "Severe", the risk level crosses over from "High" to
"Extreme", which point towards an undesirable degree of risk.

Consequently, employing the defective ladder to suspend the banner would

validate that the danger level did not meet acceptable standards as per the risk
matrix.

(7) b
We will employ the same risk matrix as before to showcase how utilizing
alternative access equipment like mobile scaffolding can result in an acceptable
level of risk for hanging banners.
| Likelihood/Severity | Negligible | Minor | Moderate | Major | Severe |

|-----------------------|------------|----------|----------|----------|----------|

| Almost Certain | Low | Medium | High | High | Extreme |

| Likely | Low | Medium | Medium | High | Extreme |

| Possible | Low | Low | Medium | High | Extreme |

| Unlikely | Low | Low | Low | Medium | High |

| Rare | Low | Low | Low | Medium | High |

The probability of an accident taking place while using mobile scaffolding is
deemed as "Unlikely" or even "Rare," owing to its stable nature and ability to
provide a secure platform for working at heights.

The use of mobile scaffolding provides a stable platform that would probably
result in lesser severity of any potential accidents compared to the unsafe ladder.
We can categorize the expected severity as "Minor" or "Moderate."

Let's identify the intersection point in the risk matrix where "Unlikely" or "Rare"
meets with "Minor" or "Moderate".
| Likelihood/Severity | Negligible | Minor | Moderate | Major | Severe |

|-----------------------|------------|----------|----------|----------|----------|

| Almost Certain | Low | Medium | High | High | Extreme |

| Likely | Low | Medium | Medium | High | Extreme |

| Possible | Low | Low | Medium | High | Extreme |

| Unlikely | Low | Low | Low | Medium | High |

| Rare | Low | Low | Low | Medium | High |

By examining the matrix, it is evident that if the likelihood of occurrence is
"Unlikely" or "Rare," and the severity level falls under either "Minor" or
"Moderate," then such risk levels align with a range rated as acceptable - falling
between low to medium.

Using mobile scaffolding for hanging the banner would ensure that the risk level is
deemed acceptable based on the risk matrix.
