Navigating a Risk Assessment
Every risk assessment has four steps, shown along the top of the page:
- Basic Information: the activity, the hazard, and where, when and who.
- Initial Risk Rating: how risky the activity is before any controls.
- Control Measures: what you'll do to reduce the risk, and who checks it.
- Final Risk Rating: how risky the activity is with the controls in place.

- Step indicator: a tick shows the steps you've completed. Click a step to jump to it.
- Show helpers: turn this on to show guidance under each question.
- Helper text: a short explanation and example. Click Read more for the full guidance.

Moving between steps
At the bottom of each step:
- Save & Continue saves and moves to the next step.
- Save & Finish saves and returns to the plan, so you can finish later.
- On the last step, Save & Next Assessment saves and opens the next risk assessment in the plan.
