BBC Risk Assessment Form Template

This document contains forms for assessing health and safety risks for BBC productions. Part A involves listing team members, locations, potential hazards, and a risk matrix for determining hazard likelihood and severity. Part B is for evaluating risks of individual activities. For each activity, potential hazards are identified and initial risks determined. Then, control measures to reduce risks are described, and residual risks recalculated. The forms provide a framework for methodically identifying and mitigating health and safety risks.
