For each of the hazards identified overleaf, fill in below:

 Risk 1

Potential Hazard

If carrying heavy equipment, a person could fall down the stairs and hurt themselves and others as well as the camera equipment.


What could cause harm?

The injury from falling down stairs or damage to camera equipment.

 
What is the likelihood of this happening?

If one person falls it is likely that the person will collide with others and cause further damage but the event is unlikely to happen.

 
Who or what would be harmed?

Camera may be damaged and so may the carrier and everyone else who was on the stairs.


How much harm?

Depends how the person fell and how other people on the stairs reacted.
How will the risk of this hazard be minimised?

Share the load of carrying equipment up and down the stairs. The people who are carrying the equipment upstairs need to hold the hand rail with one hand and the equipment handle with the other hand.

 

 Risk 2

 

Potential Hazard

The front garden.
 
What could cause harm?

If it has rained the grass may be damp and slippery, the crew are filming on the grass and it may therefore be dangerous if they slip

What is the likelihood of this happening?

It depends on the weather but unlikely if it is sunny.

Who or what would be harmed?

The person/people on the grass that slip over and anybody else close to the area. The camera may also get damaged.

How much harm?

It would depend what the person fell on when they slipped, it is likely not much damage would occur.

How will the risk of this hazard be minimised?


Only film if it is sunny weather and the grass is dry.
