Frequently asked questions
- What makes a risk assessment HSE compliant?
- It follows the HSE's five-step approach — identify the hazards, decide who might be harmed and how, evaluate the risks and decide on precautions, record the significant findings, and review — and it is suitable and sufficient for the actual work.
- Will an HSE inspector accept a generated risk assessment?
- Yes — provided it is site-specific, the hazards reflect the actual work, controls are proportionate and a competent person has reviewed and signed it. Riskora gives you the structure; competence stays with the signatory.
- How often should risk assessments be reviewed?
- Whenever there's a significant change in the work, after an incident, or at planned intervals. Riskora tracks versions so you can maintain an audit trail.
- Do I need a formally qualified person to sign it?
- The law requires a 'competent person' — sufficient training, experience and knowledge. Formal qualifications help but are not always required.
