Keeping it in perspectiveKeeping it in perspective
•Living is dangerous - there is risk even when asleep, but from the moment we wake the risk increases
•In Britain every year, 20 people are electrocuted by bedside lights /alarm clocks; 20 killed falling whilst getting out of bed; 30 drown in the bath; 60 are seriously injured putting on socks; 600 die from falling down stairs
•To make the world safe we have to remove baths, socks & stairs. Zero risk is not a meaningful option, because zero in this case can only be obtained by not doing anything at all.

Top TipsTop Tips • Think of RA’s as the minutes of a meeting
where issues regarding safety were raised & discussed
• It is the discussion & sharing of ideas, experience & knowledge which will enhance safety & reduce risk – not the piece of paper
• Keep it proportional
• Include yourself in ‘who might be harmed’
![Page 35: Risk Management](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051322/5456f149af7959b6358b5e17/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
• Use Generic RA’s carefully- it may be best to write your specific RA from scratch, then use the generic to check if you’ve left anything major out
• Don’t let your RA’s become static – review them regularly or ‘as required’
• Use other peoples’ accidents as a ‘near miss’ for your client / groups & revisit your RA’s – anything to change or add?
![Page 36: Risk Management](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051322/5456f149af7959b6358b5e17/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
• There is no ‘right way’ to do RA’s. A dozen different RA’s could be done for one activity & they could all be equally valid
• Most accidents occur on activities considered to be the lowest risk
• It’s not what you write which drives safety, it’s what you do. Merely writing a RA will not protect people from harm. It is the operating procedure that comes out of RA that is important.
