PRE-PRODUCTION: RISK ASSESSMENTS

Risk Assessments are an integral part of our production. Whilst on previous projects I have completed these many times, I thought I would do some research on them fist. The BBC page had an interesting article on risk assessments, outlining their uses and reasonings:
'A Risk Assessment is a structured way of thinking about how an activity or situation that is going to happen at some point in the future might cause harm to people, to periphery or to the environment and thereby helping you to identify measures to prevent or minimise the risk of this happening. Think of it as a safety planning too'

Risk Assessment Examples

-The law requires a suitable and sufficient assessment of the risk sot health and safety arising out of our work activities in order to indent the measures needed to comply with relevant safety regulations
-Should be done in order to present any significant risks in the foreseeable future
-The earlier it is completed the better as it gives you time to communicate the findings to the cast and crew and prepare
-If you are on a shoot and there is a significant change/high new risk introduced, you should revisit the risk assessment process to evaluate whether it is safe to continue the filming or not
- You must take the tie to systematically look at your activities, decided what hazards they present and asses the risk of people being exposed to these hazards
- The final step is to find waits to eliminate or control the risks

For the Pre-Production package I am going to complete 4 risk assessments for each location, I will complete all aspects of the forms so that when it comes to the production stage next year, I will just need to get them printed and signed. The following are the completed risk assessments (minus the signatures and full equipment list as this will be added both for the deadline and the production.
