Efforts should be made to further reduce risks wherever possible

No additional controls are necessary; risk is already As before work starts. Where consequences are extremely harmful, Work must not be started until the risk has been
ACTION Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP). Monitoring further assessments may be necessary to establish more precisely reduced. Where risks involves work in progress,
TO BE TAKEN required ensuring that the controls are maintained. the likelihood of harm as a basis for determining the need for urgent actions should be taken
improved control measures.

If the risk factor is Intolerable work shall not be started until risk is reduced.
