Also, do we have to discuss the the findings with the young persons parents. Would anyone have a young persons risk assessment format they would like to share.

The legislation goes onto say: 3) Nothing in paragraph (2) shall prevent the employment of a young person who is no longer a child for work- (a) where it is necessary for his training; (b) where the young person will be supervised by a competent person; and (c) where any risk will be reduced to the lowest level that is reasonably practicable. But the guidance states that all three of the above have to apply: 98 The employer needs to carry out the risk assessment before young workers start work and to see where risk remains, taking account of control measures in place, as described in regulation 3. For young workers, the risk assessment needs to pay attention to areas of risk described in regulation 19(2). For several of these areas the employer will need to assess the risks with the control measures in place under other statutory requirements. 99 When control measures have been taken against these risks and if a significant risk still remains, no child (young worker under the compulsory school age) can be employed to do this work. A young worker, above the minimum school leaving age, cannot do this work unless: (a) it is necessary for his or her training; and (b) she or he is supervised by a competent person; and (c) the risk will be reduced to the lowest level reasonably practicable Since they are 16 and therfore not of compulsory school age you do not need to inform the parents.
