Defining Hazard and Risk
Unless you do a dangerous job, going to work might not seem like a risky thing to do. But, we’re all likely to face some level of risk in our workplaces. And even though workplace risk might not sound as bad as balancing on a tiny ledge 300 feet up, it could be just as dangerous. So, every workplace needs to keep risk to a minimum, by reducing hazards. This online training course will demystify hazards and risks and show you how successful risk management can stop your workplace from turning into a danger zone.
Learning outcomes:
- Define ‘hazard’ and ‘risk’ in the context of health and safety compliance
- Complete a scored risk assessment based on the principles of likelihood and impact
- Identify ways to manage risks in the workplace to minimise danger to employees
- Apply the risk management cycle to create and maintain a low-risk workplace
