The risk assessment module in Stedfast has been designed to allow education and training to review all areas of their organisation and delivery including learners, staff, programmes, finance, IT and any other area of the business.
Education and training providers need to ensure they meet their health and safety duties as set out in the Health and Safety at Work Act and the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999.
Risk Analysis
Based on the grading awarded to each identified risk, Stedfast will produce an overall risk analysis matrix that presents a simple overview of the risk levels for each plan.
Risk Narrative Sections
As well as creating risk assessment records and grades, users are also able to add narrative sections to each plan. They can also attach relevant policies to the assessment plan.
Risk Assessment Reviews
Stedfast has a record of risk assessment dates. Users are notified when an annual review of risk assessments is required. This ensures risk assessments are are kept up to date.
There is a culture of safeguarding that supports effective arrangements to identify learners who may need early help or who are at risk of neglect, abuse, grooming or exploitation and help learners reduce their risk of harm by securing the support they need, or referring in a timely way to those who have the expertise to help
Whilst it is important to have a full record of all health and safety risks, education and training providers also need to think about other areas of their organisations that need to be risk assessed:
● Finance / funding ● IT & Cyber ● Lone work and staff requirements ● Apprenticeship employers All education and training providers should have a Prevent Duty Guidance risk assessment
All staff should be involved in risk assessments and we have designed the risk assessment module to be collaborative. Teams of staff are able to work on specific risk assessments.
