This 12 page Risk Management Procedure complies with the requirements of ISO45001, ISO31000 and WHS Regulations across Australia.

Hazard Identification, Risk Assessing, Risk Control implementation and Monitoring are all covered. Not only does it include a Risk and Action Matrix along with the Hierarchy of Control and what to do in regard to short and long term controls, it also includes 10 forms to capture and give risk control information.

We have designed this procedure to be relevant for most organisations and industries with 5 of the forms covering general risk, vehicles, client site attendance, manual handling and plant and equipment.

Fully editable, you can add your logo and company details easily.

The 10 forms that compliment this procedure are as follows:

• HSEQ Risk Register

A risk register captures all hazards and associated risks in a workplace. Easily understand all your organisations controls put in place to reduce risk and at what stage considered controls are at in terms of approval and implementation.

It shows if the risks are related to safety, environment, or quality.

A risk matrix is included with formulas built-in to auto color risk with relevant hazards in line with the matrix.

The risk matrix allows priority to be given to higher rated risks and manage safety according to risk management principles.

• Hazard Report Form

The Hazard Report Form is a simple 1 page document that encourages workers to report near miss and other hazards. The simpler the process the more it will be used.

The worker reports in the first part and the relevant manager completes the form and escalates appropriately.

This important form enables safety hazards to be controlled BEFORE they potentially cause injury.

• Hazard Report Flow Chart

The Hazard Report Flow Chart is a 1 page reference document that can be displayed on notice boards or sent electronically as required. This will greatly help with understanding and acceptance of what to do to proactively manage safety issues that have not potentially injured someone yet.

It shows what to do if the hazard can be fixed immediately or if it needs to be escalated.

You can customise our pre-populated 9 step flow chart to suit your own organisational needs.

• Risk Matrix

Our risk matrix is a 5 x 5 matrix that appears constantly through all documents available on our website.

We offer it here as a 1 page document so it can be displayed on notice boards or sent electronically as required to increase awareness.

The consequence axis has Safety and Environmental issues.

There is also a Control Action Table that indicates how urgent an assessed risk needs to be addressed including ‘stop work’ for extreme risk.

• Risk Assessment Template

The Risk Assessment Template includes the risk matrix for easy reference while completing a risk assessment. This form captures all the hazards that may apply, existing controls, proposed controls to be considered and the monitoring of existing controls.

Its lay out is deliberately similar to the risk register for easy transfer of the information.

• Vehicle Safety Checklist

The Vehicle Safety Checklist applies to all vehicles that may be used for work purposes on the road. It has 39 pre-populated sources of hazards that you can add or delete to simply make relevant for your business.

• Client Site Risk Assessment Template

Made for organisations that send their workers to another organisations site.

It is designed to be simple but effective to encourage workers to use it and Managers to check and verify if further actions are required.

Including the Risk Matrix, it considers external hazards that may exist prior to entering the clients building and then further risks that may exist within the immediate work area.

It enables demonstration of pro-active risk assessing of your workers safety in environments you are not actively managing. It is designed to be done initially and then at a frequency relevant to the risk and your organisation.

Recovery Partners use this exact form for all our consultants entering our clients’ premises.
