RISK LEVEL INTERPRETATION

1 – 3 (Green – Safe Zone) = Low Risk is acceptable and requires no additional control(s).

Risk is in moderate zone and the existing controls have reduced the risk level to an acceptable level. However, the risk in this category
4 – 6 (Yellow – Moderate) = Medium requires close monitoring as it may fall into the danger category if either severity or likelihood is affected through any means. It is also
recommended to evaluate the need to apply some controls to reduce the risk level to green zone

18– 12 (Orange – Danger) = High Risk is in a danger zone and additional controls are required to reduce the level of risk to bring it to an acceptable level.
15 – 25 (Red – Extremely Dangerous) = Extremely High Risk is extremely dangerous and an immediate action is required to apply additional controls in order to bring it to an acceptable level.

Additional Control measures, if required (Details of related safety information; i.e. further documents required for the activity)
