Risk Assessment 

Every effort must be made to assess all risks to the Club and every event the Club organises.

In this methodology, hazards are rated according to likelihood and potential consequence of occurrence.  

The likelihood scale is:

The consequence scale is:

 

The rating is*:

1            Rare

2            Unlikely

3            Possible

4            Likely

5            Almost   certain

 

1             Insignificant

2             Minor

3             Moderate

4             Major

5             Tragic

Rating is a multiplication of likelihood x consequence and in most cases is a measure of possible personal injury to Rotarians or the public but the potential effect on Rotary should also be taken into account eg through negative publicity. The aim should always be to reduce the rating as far as possible. Serious consideration should be given to continuing with any activity where the rating is shown in red. 

It is impossible to specify all issues which may need to be considered but they might include event environment, fire, personal safety of Rotarians and the public and stress. 

Risk assessments of Club premises or for ongoing activities should be reviewed whenever a significant change occurs or, at least, annually. 

Risk assessments for events may need to be reviewed several times prior to the event as actions are implemented and, for future reference, as a result of learning from the event. The RIBI Health & Safety Policy booklet gives useful advice on assessing risks at various types of event but does not replace a local risk assessment.
