Workplace Risk Assessments

Systematic hazard identification, risk evaluation and control measures aligned with ALARP principles and Uganda’s OSH Act 2006.

What We Deliver

A thorough workplace risk assessment is the foundation of every effective health and safety management system. Sama Safety Consult conducts structured assessments that identify hazards, evaluate risk levels, and recommend practical, cost-effective controls so residual risk is As Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP).

Hazard Identification

Physical, chemical, biological, ergonomic and psychosocial hazards mapped across your operations.

Risk Evaluation

5-step methodology with likelihood × severity scoring and clear prioritisation.

Control Measures

Hierarchy of controls applied — elimination, substitution, engineering, administrative and PPE.

Human Factors

Optimisation of task design, competence and behaviour to reduce error and improve performance.

Our 5-Step Risk Methodology

1

Identify Hazards

Walkthroughs, interviews, document review and task observation to capture all significant hazards.

2

Decide Who Might Be Harmed

Workers, contractors, visitors, neighbours and vulnerable groups are considered.

3

Evaluate Risks & Existing Controls

Assess residual risk after current controls and determine if further action is needed.

4

Record Findings & Action Plan

Clear risk register, prioritised recommendations and responsibilities with timelines.

5

Review & Update

Periodic review after incidents, process changes or at agreed intervals.
