Before you embark on a huge programme of risk assessments have a look at the following, and remember pregnancy is not an illness work with the pregnant woman rather than making assumptions about her capabilities.

You could get the woman in question a copy of INDG373
http://www.hse.gov.uk/pubns/indg373.pdf

The there’s the health professionals guide: http://www.hse.gov.uk/pubns/indg373hp.pdf

Then have a look at the HSE publication New and expectant mothers at work ISBN 0717625834

Sorry if that sounded a bit patronising it wasn’t meant to.

I have one you could use, you will obviously need to carry out your own assessment but it will give you some idea on what to include. Let me know if you require a copy.
