Risk Assessment for RSC events


A risk assessment form must be filled out for every event organised by Local Sections, Subject Groups & Sectors, Regions and any other member groups of the RSC.

If you are transporting chemicals please ensure you read the booklet on Transporting Chemicals for Lecture Demonstrations and Similar Purposes.

Should an accident or incident occur at an RSC Event , please complete the Accident/Incident Form.

Red Risk Assessment forms must be submitted to Pauline Meakins at least two weeks prior to the event. Four examples of good practice on how to fill in a 'red' category event form are available as examples.
