Risk Controls - All need to be eliminated where possible. However, this is not always possible therefore other measures need to be taken to reduce the risk and create a safer event. Use of the hierarchy of controls may be of assistance in this process. Hierarchy of Controls ELIMINATE e.g. ban the use of jumping castles on days where winds exceed 30km/per hour – SUBSTITUTE e.g. replace ladder with a scissor lift or step platform, use weights instead of pegs for securing structures and marquees. – ENGINEERING CONTROLS e.g. glass shields in front of food preparation and serving areas, barriers to prevent pedestrian access – ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS e.g. training and induction for all staff, emergency plans, worksite inspections – PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE) e.g. sunhats, sunscreen, long sleeve clothing, high visibility vests, enclosed footwear. – The Risk items listed below are risks that most events are exposed to in one form or another. Should a risk item not be relevant to the event delete it or state NA Response Responsible Due Date Preventative Controls Risk Item Consequence Likelihood Risk Rating Controls Person For Preventative Prior to Risk Occurring Controls If Risk Occurs For Risk 1.1 Medical Incidents - Minor Injuries 1.2 Medical Incidents Moderate-Major – Injuries 1.3 Fatality 1.4 Dehydration 2.1 Damage 2.2 Damage to lawn by heavy vehicles 2.3 Damage to Temporary Fence 2.4 Excessive Noise
