1 SAMPLE RISK ASSESSMENT CHECKLIST Events Involving Minors This form is a guide and should not be considered all inclusive for any one program. The safety and well being of children participating in camp and/or enrichment programs should be the highest priority of all college and university affiliated camps or enrichment programs. Departments, organizations, or academic units that sponsor events involving children must consider the full impact of all activities conducted during the course of a program and must appreciate the responsibilities of the sponsoring unit in taking appropriate measures to reduce or eliminate the potential for exposure of participants to reasonably foreseeable hazards. These sample Risk Assessment Checklists are designed for use by program sponsors to assess risk associated with various activities that involve minors (K 12 non university students). The checklists cannot encompass all of the possible scenarios for activities and risks. Therefore, sponsoring units are called upon to exercise due diligence in designing program activities in such a way as to reflect safety considerations for all participants. Samples Included: I. General Program Activities II. Equipment and Tools A. Hand or power tools, sharp instruments. B. Chemicals or ignitable or noxious gases C. Firearms, bows and arrows, or pressurized projectiles. III. Water Activities IV. Housing V. Transportation VI. First Aid ACKNOWLEDGEMENT The checklists are based in part on materials for a presentation entitled Free and Worth Every Penny: Do Your Volunteers Put You At Risk? at the National Association of College and University Attorneys (NACUA) Conference on June 27 June 30, We gratefully acknowledge the work of Alicia Dimond, Graduate Intern at Arizona State University who adapted her materials from the Camp and Enrichment Policy of Texas A&M University, Office of Rules and Regulatory Compliance.
