Hazard Analysis - List & Report & Matrix

Risk Report

Firstly, the risk assessment template report will manage and control potential risks in your business.

In addition, it displays an analysis of the amount and distribution of the likelihood and severity of the hazards you listed in the Risk List section.

Risk List

Secondly, this section mainly lets you list the hazards and analyze them in terms of their severity and likelihood. Firstly, you will input your data in Hazard, Who is at risk, Person Responsible, and Recommended Action columns. After that, you can choose the option which suits you the best when you click on any cell in the Severity and Likelihood columns. Moreover, you can identify 200 hazards in this list.

Warning!: DO NOT type in or delete anything in the Risk Impact column, it adjusts itself automatically from Risk Assessment Matrix right after you choose your options in the Severity and Likelihood columns.

This Risk Assessment Template is designed for business owners, risk auditors, third-party providers, employees, small business managers and other relevant professions.

It is possible to add 200 hazards to the Risk List sheet.

After unlocking your template, you can customize it according to your needs. But if you need professional assistance for your modifications, please purchase the customization service, if you need more info, please follow this link.

This template will lead the way for you to make your risk assessment. But let’s summary up the steps for a risk assessment process:

  • Step 1 – Identifying the hazards: You should first identify the hazards/risks you have ahead.
  • Step 2 – Assessing the risk: You should assess each hazard according to its severity and likelihood level. This will also identify the position of the hazards on your risk matrix.
  • Step 3 – Identifying a control action: You should decide on whether to accept, to mitigate, to transfer or to avoid the risk according to its risk matrix position.
  • Step 4 – Assigning a responsible person: You should assign a responsible person for each risk to track the progress of actions.
  • Step 5 – Evaluate the overall risk report: Lastly, you should evaluate the big picture of your business risks. The risk assessment dashboard would display the needed metrics for this report.

After completing your risk assessment, you’ll find out the positions of the hazards on your risk matrix. Now you can define your strategy for each of them according to severity and likelihood levels. In general, there’re 4 main strategies against risks:

  1. Accept Risks: If the severity and likelihood of a risk is low, you can prefer to accept that risk instead of making any control action.
  2. Mitigate Risks: If you think a risk might cause a serious impact on your business, then you can take action to reduce the likelihood or expected impact to an acceptable level.
  3. Avoid Risks: If the severity level is too high, then you can take action to totally remove a risk. This might include closing some units, canceling some activities etc.
  4. Transfer Risks: This is about transferring the possible impacts of a risk to a third-party, usually in return for money. Insurance companies are the most common examples for this.

    • Someka

      Hello, sorry for making you uncomfortable. We have to add Someka’s logo to each sheet because of branding rules.
      But don’t worry you can easily cut Someka’s logo and add yours.

      Under the dashboard sheet, you will see plus (+) sign on the left side of the table.
      When you click on the sign, extra rows will be added automatically. Please see the image below.

  13. Jafaru

  14. Charles

    I have download this risk matrix tool. It is quite good but I would like to customize it and add columns. Is it possible to do? I also want to add one more likelihood to the matrix. How can I do it?

    • Someka

      Hi Charles,
      Thanks a lot for your interest! Once you download the modifiable version, it will allow you to add a new column inside the template for personal information. But, you should be careful about not corrupting the template structure. We recommend applying to our customization process for enlarging the risk assessment matrix. It needs additional functions to recognize the information on the column you add for new likelihood.
      Hope that helps!
      Regards,

    • Charles

      Can I create a 3×3 matrix instead of enlarging the original one? I mean, if I would like to create a smaller matrix. What should I do?

    • Someka

      Hi again, Charles!
      We have created our risk assessment matrix template according to the 4×4 size originally. So, if you would like to make it smaller or larger size, you need additional modification both. Our support team will be peaceful to help you with the small tricks. But, if you would like to do comprehensive customization, you should apply the customization process as we mentioned before.
      Best wishes,

    • Charles

      Thank you guys! Your support team has just contacted me regarding my requests.
