HSE-ALIGNED RISK PROCESS

A practical five-stage route from hazard to review.

The system guides users through the recognised risk-management sequence while retaining accountable professional judgement.

1

Identify hazards

Examine the activity, environment, equipment, materials and foreseeable abnormal conditions.

2

Assess the risks

Identify who may be harmed and evaluate realistic likelihood and the worst credible consequence.

3

Control the risks

Apply the hierarchy of control and define accountable additional action where needed.

4

Record findings

Capture significant findings, decisions, owners, dates, consultation and approval.

5

Review controls

Confirm controls operate in practice and reassess following change, events or emerging evidence.

CONSISTENT EVALUATION

The matrix calculates. Accountable judgement decides.

Users evaluate likelihood and credible severity before and after additional controls. Elevated residual risk remains visible until it is properly governed.

  • Initial and residual risk shown separately
  • Risk bands match the controlled RPG methodology
  • Unacceptable risk triggers escalation and action
  • Control effectiveness must be verified with evidence
