11	15+	Intolerable risk – activity is not allowed to occur unless controls are put in place to reduce risk level						Severity	Description
12	10-14	High Risk – activity should not take place until all controls are in place reducing the risk level						1	Unlikely to happen, but has potential to happen or expectation that the event will happen within a 3 year period.
13	6-9	Medium Risk – activity can continue with additional controls to reduce overall level of risk						2	Potential to happen or expectation that the event will happen at least annually or there is a remote possibility
14	5	Low Risk – activity can proceed as along as existing controls are applied						3	Potential to happen or expectation that the event will happen at least every 6 months or that it may happen
15	1-4	Tolerable – no additional controls required						4	Potentially likely to happen or expectation that the event will happen at least every 3 months
