Risk Register

This Risk Register provides a form to record identified hazard and risk levels in the workplace, including any recommended actions for uncontrolled risks.

For each hazard it records what can happen, the risk level (acute, high, moderate or low), the current controls, the further actions to reduce the risk, the responsible persons, a due date and management sign-off when complete. A worked example row shows how to fill it in.

It suits safety officers, HR managers and business owners across industries who are responsible for workplace health and safety. It is part of the Health and Safety Manual, whose documents refer to each other.
