How do I carry out a risk assessment?

Read our publication "Five Steps to Risk Assessment" This tells you how to do a risk assessment for occupational health and safety. This is not the only way to do a risk assessment, there are other methods that work well, particularly for more complex risks and circumstances. However we believe this method is the most straightforward for most organisations.
