Risk Assessment

What are the hazards?	Who might be harmed and why?	What action if necessary?	How will you put the assessment into action?
Smashing glass bottles. (in our preparation for setting up a pub scene)	Anyone involved in filming or anyone around at the time. You could cut yourself in the glass.	Be careful when handling them. Make sure you do not hold too many at once.	Make everyone aware of this hazard of breaking glass.
Heavy duty filming equipment, e.g. cameras, tripod.	Actors, film crew. The heavy equipment could fall on them and injure them.	Take care when handling equipment. Make sure you are holding it correctly.	Make sure whoever is handling the equipment knows this.
