“Risk assessment is not necessarily complicated, bureaucratic or a task only for experts. There are plenty of tools available (such as checklists) that help in the process, and EU-OSHA promotes a simple five-step approach. Secondly, proper risk assessment also brings a number of business benefits, because making workplaces safer and healthier helps to reduce absenteeism and insurance costs, and increases worker motivation and productivity.”
