What a Risk Assessment for Longford Construction Work Must Cover

Under the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 and the Construction Regulations 2013, every employer in Ireland must carry out a suitable and sufficient assessment of the risks to the health and safety of their employees and any other persons who may be affected by their work activities.

For construction work in Longford, a suitable and sufficient risk assessment must:

**Identify all significant hazards:** Not just the obvious ones, but all hazards associated with the specific work activity, the site conditions, and the people who may be affected.

**Evaluate the risk:** Consider the likelihood that harm will occur and the severity of that harm if it does, taking into account the control measures already in place.

**Record the findings:** The risk assessment must be written down and kept available for inspection by the HSA. A verbal assessment is not sufficient.

**Identify control measures:** Specify what additional control measures are needed to reduce the risk to an acceptable level, following the hierarchy of control: eliminate, substitute, engineer out, administrative controls, and personal protective equipment.

**Be reviewed regularly:** The risk assessment must be reviewed whenever there is reason to believe it is no longer valid, or when there has been a significant change in the work activity.

Generic vs Site-Specific Risk Assessments

The HSA distinguishes between generic risk assessments (which cover the typical hazards associated with a type of work) and site-specific risk assessments (which take into account the particular conditions of a specific site). Both are required. A generic risk assessment for, say, working at height on scaffolding is a useful starting point, but it must be supplemented by a site-specific assessment that considers the actual conditions on your Longford site.
