People walking around the room could trip over the chairs.
People moving around the room might trip.
Drinks may fall onto the equipment and cause some electricity problems.
People in the room could trip over bags and hurt themselves.
People in the room could easily knock something over or walk into each other
People in the room using the microphone, could hurt if it falls and hits someone
The room is very small and door is very heavy, could hit someone when opening
Gaps underneath the desks.People shouldn’t be moving around the room
The wires are not falling of the desk; it is all behind the screen
Rules to keep drinks away from computers.
Bags are kept under the desk so nobody can fall over
There is not any reason to be moving around the room, should be stationary in seats
The mics are on stands in the middle of the desk limiting the risk of it falling
There’s a window on the door so you can see if anybody is in range of the door when opened
Expand the size of the room, there isn’t much space to walk around at all, just a few chairs.
Use of cable tidies.
Maybe add another desk for if somebody would like to eat or drink not near the equipment
Always keep bags under the desks when not being used.
Only limited amount of people, one per chair, should be allowed in the room so there is no reason for anybody to be walking around and everyone has space
Do not mess with the mic stands and leave them in one place when using them.
Do not sit close to the door or in range of where people coming in cannot see you and could hurt you
1. List hazards something with the potential to cause harm here:Seek to quantify the level of risk the likelihood of harm arising based on the number of persons affected, how often they are exposed to the hazard and the severity of any consequence.
2. List groups of people who are especially at risk from the significant hazards which you have identified3. List existing controls here or note where the information may be found4. List the risks which are not adequately controlled and the action you will take. Have regard for the level of risk, the cost of any action and the benefit you expect to
gain.
RISK RATING
a SEVERITY b LIKELIHOOD c FINAL SCORE RATING: what needs to be done
5 Dying or being permanently disabled 5 Will almost certainly happen 16-25 Stop! Do not start activity again until risk is controlled
4 Serious injury/long term illness 4 Highly likely to happen 10-15 High risk level, High priority. Take action straight away to control the risk
3 Temporary disability/3 days off sick 3 Not so likely 6-9 Medium risk level. Tighten up controls and make a plan to do something about risk
2 Will need medical attention 2 Even less likely 3-5 Fairly low risk level. Low priority but keep possible action in mind
1 Minor injury eg. Bruise, graze 1 Unlikely to happen at all 1-2 Low or trivial risk. No further action required.
SO: a x b = c
