Significant Findings of Risk Assessment

Location:		Assessment Serial No:
Activity: Production - Filming	Carried out by:  Harry Sandall	Date:  Friday 2nd October 2015	Review Date:

 

Hazards	Who might be harmed	Existing controls (Refer to procedures doumented elsewhere where appropriate)	Controls Adequate Y / N	Additional Controls Required
Transport – accident / lost / approached by starngers	Student	·         Students to record on their audit how they are to get to location. Times and locations needed ·         Parents need to be made aware. ·         Mobile phone numbers shared between group and parents. ·         Production schedule identifies times, means of transport, locations. ·         No students under 18 are to go in the car of another student. ·         With students over 18 both parents need to be aware. Insurance and car worthnessness  need to be guarenteed. ·         If students go with other parents both parents need to be aware.	Yes	Also, in the unlikely event of automobile issues, we will have to ensure that we cross the road in a safe manner and watch for incoming traffic.
Use of equipment (list)		·         Training on equipment use. ·         Security ·         Storage ·         Safety (no guns, daggers, mock drugs, etc) in public – check prop suitability	Yes	In the event that we have a situation that needs to be addressed by the emergency services, we will ALL carry mobile phones in case we need to call for help and we will all charge them to 100% the night before to ensure that they last as long as possible whilst we are out filming. In addition, in the event that we are confronted by people for whatever reason, we will need to extract ourselves from the location and get to safety as soon as possible.
Passerby- nusicance/ concern	Passersby	·         All equipment to be include in production schedule. ·         Any permissions required evidenced. ·         Awareness of outsiders
Location	Students	·         Trespass ·         Any permissions required evidenced. ·         Safety of location – students to consider safety of buildings, ground, ·         Consider risk of falls, slips and trips	Yes	An example of this could be that if one of us had an allergy to something we need to ensure that at least one of us had an epipen on hand in order to addresses the issue effectively without putting the victims health at risk or in extreme cases saving them from dying from an allergic reaction. To stop this happening in the first place, if anybody does have an allergic reaction, they will need to be vigilant with what they touch/go near in order to try to prevent from happening in the first place. Also, for standard injuries, we will need to have a small medical kit on hand in order to attend to wounds such as cuts and bruises.
		Send letter to parents highlighting H&S issues and student responsibilities	Yes
