CRITERIA FOR ESTIMATING RISKS
LIKELIHOOD OF HARM OCCURING CRITERIA
1 | Very Unlikely | An incident will only occur in exceptional circumstances and is a very rare |
2 | Unlikely | An incident is not likely to occur |
3 | Fairly Likely | An incident may occasionally occur whilst the event is taking place |
4 | Likely | An incident is likely to occur whilst the event is taking place |
5 | Very Likely | An incident is almost certain to occur whilst the event is taking place |
CONSEQUENCE OF HARM OCCURING CRITERIA
1 | Insignificant | Insignificant/very slight Injury – Not likely to require any treatment, no financial loss |
2 | Minor | Minor injuries/ill health requiring first aid, minimal financial loss to the College |
3 | Moderate | Injury/ill health requiring time off work, may impact the college due to the financial loss sustained |
4 | Major | Major injury requiring hospital treatment and possibly life changing, excessive financial loss to the College |
5 | Catastrophic | Death or High impact on the future running of the college through financial losses |

Risk Rating Explanations
RISK LEVEL | ACTION AND TIMESCALES |
TRIVIAL (LTri) | No action is required |
MODERATE (Mod) | Efforts should be made to reduce the risk(s), but the cost of prevention should be carefully measured and limited. Risk reduction measures should be implemented within a defined time period. Where the moderate risk is associated with extremely harmful consequences, further assessment may be necessary to establish more precisely the likelihood of harm as a basis for determining the need for improved control measures |
SUBSTANTIAL (HSub) | Work should not be started until the risk has been reduced. Considerable resources may have to be allocated to reduce the risk. Where the risk involves work in progress, urgent action should be taken. |
INTOLERABLE (HInt) | Work should not be started or continued until the risk has been reduced. If it is not possible to reduce risk even with unlimited resources. Work has to remain prohibited. |
Low/Medium/High Converted Risk Levels
Converted Risk Level | Conversion Explanation |
Low | Low Risk Level – Incorporates both Trivial and Tolerable risk ratings (1-4) |
Medium | Medium Risk Level – Covers Moderate risk rating (5-10) |
High | High Risk Level – Incorporates both Substantial and Intolerable risk ratings (12 -25) |
