Document background
The Standard Risk Assessment Form is a crucial document required under Swiss workplace safety legislation to systematically identify, assess, and control potential hazards in the workplace. This form must be completed in accordance with Swiss federal regulations, including the Labour Act (ArG), Accident Insurance Law (UVG), and EKAS Directive 6508. It is typically used when introducing new processes, equipment, or work methods, during regular safety reviews, or following workplace incidents. The document includes sections for hazard identification, risk evaluation, existing and proposed control measures, and action planning, all aligned with Swiss safety standards and best practices. Regular updates are required to maintain compliance with Swiss workplace safety requirements and ensure ongoing risk management effectiveness.
