Baseline Risk Assessment

A baseline risk assessment evaluates aspects such as noise, ventilation, temperature extremes, illumination, and other factors. The output of a baseline risk assessment:

• it is a risk profile or set of risk profiles; and
• it is a clear description of the methodology, system, terminology etc. used in the scoping exercise, and what may be required for the improvement of the baseline HIRA in the future.

Examples of baseline risk assessments

• Hygiene and Health Surveys (Noise, Lighting, Ventilation, Temperature Extremes)
• Environmental Impact and Aspect Registers
• Fire Risk Assessments
