Operations must not proceed: alternative methods to conduct this task must be implemented.
INTERMEDIATE (4 TO 12)
Risks should be reduced to as low as reasonably practicable (ALARM). The higher the risk. The more effort must be given to reducing the risk.
This task should be reassessed at regular intervals to evaluate that the existing control measures are adequate.
TOTERABLE (1 TO 4)
This task may proceed with or without additional control measures. But if measures can be implemented to further reduce risk these should be
implemented.

Any number 15 or above is intolerable and the task must not commence until alternative methods have been introduced. Any number 4 to
12 risks are deemed as tolerable, risks must have been reduced to as low as reasonably practicable (ALARM). Additional control measures
may be required and the tasks should be re-assessed at regular intervals. Numbers 1 to 4 are tolerable, but risks should be reduced further
if easily achievable.
