Plan, complete, and sign off assessments with guided steps and clear accountability — so your team always knows what to do next.
See Data & AnalyticsEvery assessment finishes as a clear record — hazards, ratings, controls, and sign-off in one place, ready for audit.
Record what could cause harm, who might be affected, and where the work takes place.
Score likelihood and severity on your organisation’s own risk matrix, so the highest risks are obvious before you apply controls.
Capture existing and additional measures, attach evidence, and assign owners with due dates.
Review and approve — with ALARP acceptance recorded if residual risk exceeds your tolerance — then schedule the next review.
Start with a 5×5 matrix out of the box, or configure R1SK to match the matrix your organisation already uses.
Run a matrix from 2×2 up to 10×10, with likelihood and severity labels that match your safety policy.
Set each band’s name, threshold, and colour. Assessments, the Risk Register, analytics, and PDFs all follow it.
Set a maximum acceptable residual score. Anything above it can’t be completed until someone records why the risk is as low as reasonably practicable.
| Minor | Moderate | Major | Severe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Unlikely | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |
| Possible | 2 | 4 | 6 | 8 |
| Likely | 3 | 6 | 9 | 12 |
| Very likely | 4 | 8 | 12 | 16 |
Justification
Forklift and pedestrian routes can’t be fully separated in the loading bay. Barriers, marked walkways and a banksman reduce risk as far as reasonably practicable.

Structured around the Health and Safety Executive’s five steps to risk assessment, so every record follows the same proven method.
Include your Safe System of Work, add hazards and controls so mitigations are clear, understood and auditable.
Assign owners, set deadlines, and track completion so assessments stay current instead of sitting in a folder.
Standardise how assessments are structured across teams and sites, so they are easier to complete and review.
Create your next risk assessment with guided steps, clear ownership, and a record your auditors can follow.
