Risk assessments

Risk assessments are very important as they form an integral part of your health and safety management plan. The aim of the risk assessment process is to evaluate hazards and then remove that hazard or minimize the level of its risk by adding control measures. By doing so a safer and healthier workplace can be achieved.
