Health and Saftey

While working/operating in a live sound environment health and safety is important to consider. As there can be accidents that range from non-serious to serious medical scenarios. Below is one of many diagrams that show a risk assessment.

Figure 1: Risk Matrix.

This form of a risk assessment requires a multiplication of the Likelihood against the Consequence which explains how to calculate and achieve a rating from the risk matrix.  

"Taking a likelihood of 4, which is classified as Probable, and multiplying this against a consequence of 2, which is classified as a Minor Injury 1st aid required, would give you and overall risk rating of 8, which would be risk rated as a low risk." - (On Safe Lines, 2012) 



The next form of a Risk Management is this, a risk assessment. This risk assessment looks at all of the possible risks that could occur during an event. This risk assessment depicts slippages as a risk that was thought serious enough to be assessed, to come up with an approachable solution/prevention method.
