Risk Assessment Definitions : S : Severity

OP : Occurrence Possibility
RR : Risk Rating

Severity Rating ; 1 – 5 (1 = least severe; 5 = most severe) Occurrence Possibility: 1 – 5 (1 = least possible; 5 = most possible)

1 - Very minor (first aid treatment)

2- Minor (first aid treatment, absent from work- one shift ) 2- Low ( once in three months
3- Middle (treatment needed in hospital) 3- Middle ( once a month)
4- Serious (treatment needed in hospital, absent from work for lengthy 4- High ( once a week)
5- Very serious (death) 5- Very high (once a day)

Risk Rating Classification = Severity X Occurrence

T: Tolerable Risk; 0 – 5 = Tolerable, no action necessary.

L: Low Risk; 6 – 10 = no urgent action needed, Training at site, inductions
M: Medium Risk; 11 – 15 = action needed, Training at site, inductions, warning signs, documentation.
H: High Risk; 16 – 20 = stop work, urgent action needed, Severe precautions, work schedule change, training, emergency planning drills
VH: Very High Risk 21 – 25 = immediately stop work, urgent action needed, have to reevaluate site hazards, design and schedule change
