This SWMS risk assessment template helps teams identify hazards, rate likelihood and consequence, and implement controls to reduce residual risk. It covers common high-risk activities including working on or near roads, overhead power lines, at heights, asbestos handling, exposed energized electrical equipment, and hazardous substances. Use it to document tasks, set initial and residual risk ratings, record controls, assign responsible personnel, and decide if work can proceed safely.
