Principles proposed • The model of risk assessment as shown is adopted. This commits the university to; • A single university wide format for principle risk assessments • A single format for hazard specific assessment linked to the principle assessment • The use of a small number of generic assessments • The development of discipline specific Good Laboratory Practice to be used across all Faculties. • The development of a H&S Risk Register • The development and use of a single research RA processes that may differ from the principle RA processes where legislation and need dictates, and incorporates a specific dynamic RA process.
Risk • A single risk definition and simplified scoring mechanism, (5x5), that is adopted for all risk assessment across the university • Definition of RISK; R = S x L where : • L= The likelihood of the hazardous event • S= The worst reasonably foreseeable consequences of the hazardous event • A single definition of acceptable risk as shown.
Next steps • Develop detail of system • RA forms and guidance • Generic risk assessments • RA training course • Will be contacting you to ask for help in development and reviewing • Plan to complete by end of January 2011 • Roll out for all NEW assessments from February 2011
