Risk Risk
Recommended Action
Level Acceptability
No additional risk control measures may be needed
Low Frequent review and monitoring of hazards are required to
Acceptable
Risk ensure that the risk level assigned is accurate and does not
increase over time
A careful evaluation of the hazards should be carried out
to ensure that the risk level is reduced to as low as
reasonably practicable (ALARP) within a defined time
Medium period
Tolerable
Risk Interim risk control measures, such as administrative
controls or PPE, may be implemented while longer term
measures are being established
Management attention is required
High Risk level must be reduced to at least Medium Risk
before work commences
There should not be any interim risk control measures.
High Risk control measures should not be overly dependent on
Not Acceptable
Risk PPE appliances.
If practicable, the hazard should be eliminated before
work commences
Management review is required before work commences
