Categorising the risk level as 2 to 6 (low
to moderate) shows that the potential level of risk in this activity is
moderate. 

Further measures are needed to
reduce the risk to an acceptable level.



Control
measures



Necessary control measures arising from the
hazard identified of ‘Burn from platen’ are:

·        
Include appropriate training
for all machine operators

·        
Post notices with the machine
clearly identifying the hazard



Necessary control measures arising from the
hazard identified of ‘Trap of hand / clothing’ are:

·        
Include appropriate training
for all machine operators

·        
Post notices with the machine
clearly identifying the hazard



Necessary control measures arising from the
hazard identified of ‘Electrocution’ are:

·        
Regular inspection of power
cabling to the device

·        
Annual PAT test of equipment





Final
assessment of risk



The assessed risk taking into account the
implementation of the control measures listed, and adherence to the SSOW (Safe
System of Work) if applicable is as follows:

The risk now falls into the category ‘low’ and
is considered to be acceptable.
