Quick questions on Risk management and the hierarchy of hazard control: VCE Product Design and Technologies
2short Q&A pairs drawn directly from our worked dot-point answer. For full context and worked exam questions, read the parent dot-point page.
What is the hierarchy in order?Show answer
The order matters because higher controls are more reliable; lower ones depend on the person remembering and complying every time.
What is living risk management?Show answer
Risk assessment is not a one-off form. As production reveals new hazards (a tool behaving unexpectedly, a material splintering) you reassess and add controls, and you record this. Good housekeeping, knowing where to stop, and asking for supervision on unfamiliar equipment are all part of competent, ongoing risk management.
