Risk Assessment Services in South Africa

Risk assessment is the foundation of every health and safety system. We compile baseline, issue-based and task-based hazard identification and risk assessments (HIRA) for South African workplaces, translating each hazard into controls that supervisors and teams can apply in practice.

Types of Risk Assessment We Compile

The right assessment depends on the stage and nature of the work.

  • Baseline risk assessment — the broad hazard profile of a site or operation
  • Issue-based risk assessment — a specific task, change or high-risk activity
  • Continuous risk assessment — day-to-day pre-task identification by the team
  • Task-based assessments linked to safe work procedures and permits

From Assessment to Control

Each assessment ranks risk before and after controls, allocates responsibility, and feeds directly into your safe work procedures, training and inspection registers so the paperwork matches the work on site.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a risk assessment?
A risk assessment is a structured process of identifying hazards in a workplace or task, evaluating how likely and how severe the resulting harm could be, and recording the controls that reduce that risk to an acceptable level.
What is a baseline risk assessment?
A baseline risk assessment establishes the overall hazard and risk profile of an operation or site. It is the starting point from which issue-based and continuous risk assessments are developed.
