Elements and Performance Criteria
1 Identify and interpret operational and environmental information
  • 1.1 Applicable work health and safety (WHS), legislative and organisational requirements relevant to the establishment and maintenance of a safe work environment are verified and complied with
  • 1.2 Instructions and/or plans are read and interpreted to identify the process which will be undertaken to complete work tasks
  • 1.3 Tools and equipment to be used are identified and their operating characteristics are analysed
  • 1.4 The flooring materials to be used, including adhesives, are identified and their characteristics analysed
2 Identify hazards
  • 2.1 Work area conditions are analysed to identify/recognise potential hazards
  • 2.2 Relevant safety systems information is accessed and analysed to eliminate situations covered by existing and adequate procedures
  • 2.3 The type and scope of unresolved hazards and their likely impact are recognised
3 Assess risk
  • 3.1 Likelihood of the event happening is considered and determined
  • 3.2 Consequence if the event should occur is evaluated and determined

4 Identify and decide on risk treatment
  • 4.1 Range of treatments which may eliminate or minimise the risk are identified
  • 4.2 All possible options for resolution of the problem/dealing with the risk are identified and considered
  • 4.3 Feasible options are subject to detailed analysis, including the identification of resource requirements
  • 4.4 Most appropriate treatment for dealing with the situation is selected
5 Implement the risk treatment
  • 5.1 The course of action/treatment is planned and prepared in detail
  • 5.2 Resources required for the treatment are acquired or obtained
