<p> Health and Safety Event Planner Checklist</p><p>Appendix 5 This form should help you to plan your event, identify what needs to be done and allows you to record when actions are completed. </p><p>1. What are the Hazards? Use the checklist to identify safety and other risks which may be present at your event site or activities – highlight those you identify. Hazards can be identified by:  Walking around your workplace or where the event will occur  Asking other employees what they think  Checking manufacturers’ instructions  Speaking to the Health and Safety Department</p><p>2. Possible Controls / What are you already doing? Once hazards have been recognised, controls need to be identified to either reduce or eliminate. On the form are possible controls some of which may be routinely carried out i.e. grass cutting – just tick them off when they are done!</p><p>3. What further action is necessary - Actions to be taken List any actions/activities that still need to be carried before the event begins - you need to make sure that you have reduced risks “so far as reasonably practicable”.</p><p>4. Completed by Who When Done Once you have identified how risks can be reduced or eliminated, it is then important to complete the actions and record whose responsibility it is and when it should be done. Any significant risks that you identify should be recorded on the standard RA3 risk assessment form to evidence that risks have been managed. Your section head or station manager should sign these forms off. </p><p>5. Review</p><p>A risk assessment is not a static document it is constantly evolving and should be reviewed each time an event occurs, this will ensure standards remain high and also highlight any significant changes in the workplace. Make sure you have a copy of this document at your event, to use as a final sign off.
