Risk levels are categorised in a numbered format. Each hazard is given a rating and this is multiplied by the probability that these hazards will occur, as shown in the following equation.
Risk level = (Hazard severity) x (Likelihood of occurrence)
Multiply the two scores together and you will get the risk level. This figure should be entered into the Job Safety Analysis form.
For example: 3 (hazard) multiplied by 3 (occurrence) = 9 (risk level)
