Confirm that the existing control measures are in place and working and then allocate Likelihood and Severity factors for the hazard. It may be necessary to get specialist advice when
determining the factors for some hazards. However, for most situations the following table should be used as a guide. Likelihood is the possibility of an accident. Severity describes the most
credible consequences, should the hazard cause an accident.
