Classroom Hazard Assessment Activity

This document provides guidance on hazard identification, risk assessment, and risk control in the classroom. For simple hazards like boxes on the floor, one should pick them up or move them out of the way. For more complex hazards like frayed cords or damaged equipment, one should report the issue to a supervisor. When assessing risk, the person in charge should consider the likelihood of harm and potential severity. They should also consider risk control measures from elimination to substitution to engineering controls to administration to personal protective equipment.
