Risk Assessment Instructions

Creating a Risk Assessment

Click “Risk Assessments” in the sidebar on the left side of the screen.

Add a Risk Assessment that you can later select in your Event/Section by pressing the + button in the upper right corner.

  • Title – As a recommendation, the title should start with the category (e.g. Game) and then the specific name to help find it for reuse. No Event specific title should be used here.
    • Examples:
      • Game-Balloon Dart Game
      • Swimming-Pool
      • Vehicle-Driving Personal Vehicle
  • Tag String – Supply tags to categorize your Risk Assessment for future use.
  • Notes – Specific notes to describe and instruct on the risk assessment activity.
  • Risk Matrix – Completing the Risk Matrix section of a risk assessment is not necessary if no hazard or risk is identified but must be completed if a risk or hazard is identified. Press the grey “+Add Row” button if a risk matrix is necessary.
  • Hazard/Risk – Write in the identified hazard or risk. Add additional Hazards/Risks by pressing the grey “+Add Row” button below. Remove additional Hazards/Risks by pressing the red “x” button on the right.
  • Without Control Measure – Carry out risk assessment without additional control measures (i.e. probability then severity). A risk assessment Class will appear upon completion.
  • Control Measure – Write in the control measures with consideration of hierarchy of controls. Read "Considering Risk Assessment" for more information.
  • With Control Measure – Carry out risk assessment with control measures consideration (i.e. probability then severity). A risk assessment Class will appear upon completion.
