Risk assessment - small conferences and seminars
Whether you’re organising a conference or seminar for staff or for external delegates, you need to assess and control the risks. Our sample risk assessment will give you a head start.
When to use it
This risk assessment has been designed to cover the most common activities associated with a small conference or seminar, i.e. one accommodating no more than a few hundred delegates.
These events might seem quite low risk on the face of it, but when you think a little deeper there are a number of hazards which need to be addressed.
What’s covered?
The assessment includes several sections covering:
- emergency planning - fire, first aid and other emergencies
- catering
- electrical equipment
- displaying banners and posters
- arranging furniture, displays and materials
- access/egress to/from the venue.
You can use it for a group of events or for individual ones. Tailor it to reflect the activities involved and add any venue or company-specific issues.
