Posted By Sarah Bessey I would be interested to hear how other companies communicate their risk assessments to the workforce. For example, do you stick them up on walls and hope that employees read them or do you make them read and sign a confirmation. We have around 650 employees and I don't really know the best most and effective way of communicating risk assessment findings!

Posted By AlanB Sarah, When I first joined the company I now work for I re-designed their risk assessment forms so that they could actually be written as a risk assessment and part work procedure, in addition to seperate true, full work procedures. Each risk assessment had a space in one corner for employees to sign and date, confirming that they had read and understood the risk assessment. This method is useful, although not sticking to the accepted "norm" of risk assesments, in that a risk assessment gets done, and all persons are guaranteed to get a cpoy, read it and sign it. This has helped us in a lot of claims cases, where there has been no or very little fault on the company. All risks are communicated this way. If you want more details, let me know. Alan
