Risk Assessment
A documented fire-risk assessment for your premises — aligned to the Occupational Health and Safety Act and the Mine Health and Safety Act. Identify the hazards, weigh the risk, and put a defendable control plan in place.
Workplace
Occupational Health & Safety Act
ACT 85 OF 1993
Under the OHS Act, a risk assessment is the structured exercise of identifying hazards in the workplace, weighing how likely and how harmful each one is, and then prioritising the measures needed to remove, reduce or control them. The end product is a written record that lets you demonstrate you have understood the risks and chosen reasonable controls.
Mining
Mine Health & Safety Act
MHSA
Under the MHSA, employers are required to run a systematic process that identifies the hazards in a mining operation, assesses the health and safety risks workers may be exposed to, and decides on the protective measures needed to mitigate them. The same logic applies as in the OHS Act, but the focus is the mining environment and its specific risk profile.
Our process
Four-step risk assessment.
The same four steps run under both Acts. The deliverable is a signed, costed register your team and your auditors can work from directly.
01
Hazard identification
Walk the site, talk to the people who work it, and list every fire-related hazard — flammable storage, ignition sources, electrical risk, blocked routes, missing signage and similar.
02
Likelihood & severity
For each hazard, estimate how likely it is to occur and how badly it would hurt people, property or operations if it did — so you can prioritise the response.
03
Control measures
Recommend specific, costed measures to eliminate, reduce or control each hazard — equipment, training, procedural changes or engineering work.
04
Documented register
Issue a written risk assessment with findings, mitigations and target dates — the document your auditor and insurer expect to see on file.
Deliverables
What you get on the desk.
Every assessment closes with a written pack — not just a verbal walk-through.
