Hazard Identification

Unless you are aware of a hazard it is not likely to be managed.  Identifying hazards requires a routine and formal review of all aspects of the pharmacy’s operations.

Measuring the risk associated with a hazard

This is an evaluation of the likelihood, the  severity, and the consequence of an incident, in view of the current controls in place.

Risk Control

By far the most important stage in the risk management process is to apply the most appropriate and effective controls to minimise any identified risks.

Review of Control System

Regularly review the controls you have put in place for managing OH&S risks to determine their effectiveness, relevancy and currency.  As a result of the review, some practices may need to be further refined to ensure safety in your workplace.
