Risk Assessment: Interior

Hazard	Description	Likelihood	Severity	Prevention	Action upon Occurrence
Red Head Lighting	·  Three interior lights that can overheat easily, especially the metal flaps, could cause burns ·  A fire hazard if any flammable material is near also due to overheating. ·  High wattage could be hazardous if sockets are overloaded, blown fuse. ·  Multiple wires, trip hazard or cause lights to topple. ·  Tall and heavy, could fall onto an individual or cause a break to the equipment if assembled incorrectly.	Medium: Several hazards, however minimal cast and crew.	Medium: Injury and/or damage in most cases would be minor.	·  Lights to be turned off when not in use to avoid overheating, and adjust flaps indirectly. ·  Keep the area near the lights clear of any obstruction and turn off lights when unneeded. ·  Unplug other outputs and plug lights into separate mains and use extensions only if needed. ·  Wind up excess wiring and use floor mats to cover high traffic areas. ·  Clarify assembly details with teachers, more than one person constructing lights and check all screws are tightened.	·  Treat minor burns under running cold water for 15 minutes. ·  As there are no fire extinguishers in homes, in case of any fires evacuate the building immediately and call 999 for fire-fighters. ·  Turn off the electricity. Minor problems can be fixed manually with experience but otherwise hire an electrician. ·  Use a first aid kit for any injuries obtained from a fall. Clear any broken glass with a dustpan and brush and dispose in a glass bin. ·  Use a first aid kit if the light has landed on an individual and caused injury. In the case of a serious injury seek medical advice immediately. Clear any broken glass with a dustpan and brush and dispose in a glass bin.
Reflectors/Diffusers	· The reflectors are stored by folding the metal wiring around the edges. When releasing from the cover this can extend quickly and hurt the individual. · A fire hazard if in close contact with a red head light for a prolonged period of time.	High: The reflector retains shape often unexpectedly and students have less experience.	Medium: Injury from reflectors would most likely be extremely minor; however fire could be awfully hazardous.	·   Hold the reflector and case away from the face when extracting. Be in a spacious enough are when completing this process. ·   Hold up reflectors manually so that they are not in front of any light when in resting position. Do not put diffusers too close to lights or their flaps.	·  Tend to any minor injuries with heat, cold or a first aid kit if needed. ·  As there are no fire extinguishers in homes, in case of any fires evacuate the building immediately and call 999 for fire-fighters.
Moving and Rearranging sofas	· Two sofas need to be moved and one of these needs to be extended as part of creating the bedroom set. Could create strain due to involvement of heavy items.	Low: The sofas are of considerable mass however the distance of travel is very small and no lifting is required.	High: If a strain injury, such as a back injury, is induced then this could be quite dangerous.	·   Make sure that two people are operating each sofa together, to lower the mass to manoeuvre for each person. Clear the path of travel before moving the sofas and take off any access mass before doing anything.	·  If any strain is caused then stop immediately and sit down. If pain persists then seek medical advice.
Glassware	· Glasses are used in the kitchen to pour juice into. Broken glass can be dangerous.	Low: Nothing else will be on the counter and this action is frequent for many and therefore unlikely for accidents.	Medium: Broken glass can be severe if consumed but it is most likely in this scenario to pose an external threat.	·   Keep the counter clear of anything else, so other items can not trigger the glass to fall and break. Also keep the glass as far away from the edge of the counter as possible.	·  Clear any broken glass using a dustpan and brush and dispose in a glass bin. In the unlikely event of any being consumed, seek medical advice immediately.
Stool	· The ghost will stand on a stool during his scenes in order to fit into frame. This could cause a fall hazard.	Low: The stool has non-slip grips and the height is very low.	Low: A fall from that height is extremely unlikely to cause any significant injury.	·   Make sure the actor has something to hold onto for support and use a stool with non-slip grips.	·  Use heat, cold, or a first aid kit for any obtained injuries accordingly.
