Knowledge
I have read and understood the potential hazards and standard handling procedures of all the equipment, chemicals and
biological items, including living organisms.
I have read and understood the Safety Data Sheets for all hazardous chemicals used in the experiment.
I have copies of the Safety Data Sheets of all the hazardous chemicals available in or near the laboratory.
Risk assessment
I have considered the risks of:
fire or explosion injuries from equipment biohazards waste disposal
chemicals in eyes rotating equipment injuries from animals improper labelling/storage
inhalation of gas/dust electrical shock environmental impact inappropriate behaviour
chemicals on skin vibration or noise intense light/lasers communication issues
ingestion of chemicals sharp objects UV, IR, nuclear radiation allergies
runaway reaction falling or flying objects pressure inside equipment special needs
heat or cold contamination of area heavy lifting ethical issues
breakage of equipment exposure to pathogens slipping, tripping, falling other risks
For outdoor activities , consider wind, temperature, rain/hail/snow, UV, air quality, fire danger, pollen, bites/stings etc
Certification by Teacher
I have assessed the risks associated with performing this experiment in the classroom on the basis of likelihood and
consequences using the School's risk matrix , according to International Organization for Standardization Standard ISO
31000:2018.
I consider the inherent level of risk (risk level without control measures) to be:
Low risk Medium risk High risk Extreme risk
You have provided an electronic signature which is the equivalent of signing your name with a pen and as such will
constitute a legally binding agreement between the relevant parties. We can give no warranty in respect to fraud or
security breach resulting from the use of an electronic signature.
I consider the inherent level of risk (risk level without control measures) to be:
Low risk Medium risk High risk Extreme risk
Where the risk level is "medium risk", "high risk" or "extreme risk", the following control measures will be employed:
With the specified control measures in place, I have found that all the risks are "low risk". Risks will therefore be managed
by routine procedures in the laboratory, in combination with the specified control measures.
