3 Likelihood Likely Possibly Unlikely Low Med High Likelihood 1 Unlikely 2 Possible 3 Very Likely Remotely possible, combination of factors would be required to trigger the incident (> 10 years) Could happen when additional factors are reset but otherwise unlikely to occur (last 3 years) Happen all the time, almost inevitable (last 6 months) Consequence 1 Low Minor Injuries (First Aid), Fire etc. 2 Medium Hospitilisation, Medical Leave etc 3 High Serious injuries, Fatality Consequences - Consider the magnitude/severity of the consequences of the Risk Factor occurring Consequences normally will not change unless there is a physical change to the equipment or proce Likelihood - Team should rely upon their experience and consider realistic scenarios. Listed below a likelihood. - Past experience / incidents - Complexity of the activity - Number of personnel involved in the activity (e.g. all personnel, a limited number of trained person - Frequency of use or execution - Degree of control (involvement of contractors) - Strength/completeness of administrative controls - Sufficiency/formality of training - Other...
