Posted By Pete Longworth Hello Michael Without wishing to appear facetious the simple answer is that you can keep the RAs where you like as long as they are readily available and the location is well known. OHSAS 18001 asks for risk assessments for all routine and non-routine tasks so generic assessments would fall into the category of routine tasks. As long as the generic assessments aren't the only assessments you do, I don't see the problem.
