Construction Services Risk Assessment

What Does This Construction Services Risk Assessment Cover?

• Falls from height — operatives working on scaffolding, platforms, roofs and using access equipment
• Falling objects — tools, materials and debris falling from height
• Manual handling — lifting and positioning of construction materials, plant components and tooling
• Slips, trips and falls at ground level — uneven ground, excavations, trailing cables and wet surfaces
• Electrical hazards — contact with buried or overhead services and use of temporary electrical supplies
• Hazardous substances — exposure to silica dust, cement dust, wood dust, solvents and construction chemicals
• Plant and vehicle movements — construction vehicles and plant operating on and around site

Each hazard includes an inherent risk rating ranging from Moderate to Substantial, and a comprehensive listing of applicable control measures covering areas such as;

• Avoidance of work at height and use of ground-level pre-fabrication where practicable
• Scaffolding inspection, guard rails, toe boards and opening protection
• Safety harnesses, lanyards and anchor points where collective protection is impracticable
• Exclusion zones, debris nets, fan gantries and tool lanyards
• Mechanical lifting aids, manual handling training and team lift procedures
• Services surveys, overhead line management and electrical isolation procedures
• COSHH assessments, wet cutting, on-tool extraction and Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE)
• Site traffic management plans, pedestrian and plant segregation, banksman deployment

A residual risk rating is then assigned to each hazard, demonstrating how effective risk management reduces overall risk to a tolerable level.
