Risk Assessment Matrix (RAM) Tool? - for Supervisors/Managers


Risk Assessment Matrix (RAM) is an environmental, health and safety management tool to rank, identify and assess the risks. HSE Practitioners have experienced that the Risk Assessment Matrix is not always correctly applied and is quite often seen as a tool for professionals to use to develop HSE Cases.

We have resources that will really help to get a good understanding of the matrix and its use in daily life. The use of this tool has been tested by many at medium and senior management corporate levels and found it well effective.
Its use resulted in a much improved understanding of the risks associated with the job and enthusiasm for the personal tasks to lower the risks to a level as low as reasonably practicable (ALARP).
A good appreciation of the HSE risks in your area of responsibility helps to correctly direct resources for improvement. This tool that will help you and your colleagues to:
apply the RAM properly and frequently as a natural way to communicate and plan for HSE improvement
better appreciate your personal role in managing the HSE risk in your area of responsibility
come to a good understanding of your role in demonstrating risk is managed to ALARP levels.
