CHECK THE CASE
BEFORE YOU CHOOSE A SERVICE.

Six focused stages turn what you already know into a structured review you can use yourself or carry into professional consultation.

01

Understand the situation

Start with the issue and what is actually happening. Plain language is enough.

This review supports understanding only. It is not a formal risk assessment, compliance decision, permit, or safe-to-work confirmation.
02

Diagnose the context

Add the context that changes how the issue should be reviewed, and flag any immediate uncontrolled condition early.

03

Explore the Control Pathways

Select only the layers you actually have. Open each pathway to understand the control concept before answering.

Elimination / substitutionOpen explanation + general example+
WHY IT MATTERS

This pathway asks whether the hazard can be removed or reduced at source before relying on downstream controls.

GENERAL EXAMPLE

Remove an unnecessary hazardous step, or consider a lower-hazard method or material where suitable.

Engineering controlsOpen explanation + general example+
WHY IT MATTERS

Engineering controls change equipment, process or the physical environment so protection does not depend only on individual behavior.

GENERAL EXAMPLE

Examples can include guarding, isolation, enclosure, ventilation or physical barriers when suitable for the actual hazard.

Administrative controlsOpen explanation + general example+
WHY IT MATTERS

Administrative controls define how work is planned, authorized, supervised and communicated.

GENERAL EXAMPLE

Examples can include procedures, permits, access rules, competency requirements, scheduling or supervision arrangements.

PPEOpen explanation + general example+
WHY IT MATTERS

PPE is a personal protection layer and needs to suit the actual exposure and task.

GENERAL EXAMPLE

Check that the selected protection is suitable, available, usable and actually worn for the relevant task.

Monitoring / measurementOpen explanation + general example+
WHY IT MATTERS

Monitoring provides evidence about exposure, condition or control performance instead of relying only on assumptions.

GENERAL EXAMPLE

Use inspections, measurements, verification checks or other evidence appropriate to the hazard being reviewed.

04

Self-Check the evidence

Answer from evidence you actually have. “Needs verification” is better than guessing.

Management-system evidence

Evidence you can point to

This is a structured signal from your answers, not a compliance score or safe-work decision.
