Risk Assessment

Risk Priority Chart – from Qld Risk Management advisory standard 2000

(Risk scores of 1 or 2 indicates the activity may need to be re – designed or avoided, unless tighter control measures can be implemented. Risk scores of 3 indicate caution must be exercised to ensure the activity control measures remain effective.)

Liklehood / Consequences
Extreme / Major / Moderate / Minor
Very Likely / 1 / 2 / 3 / 4
Likely / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5
Unlikely / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6
Very Unlikely / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7
