Risk Assessment Description:

This risk assessment is designed for the production and operations crew delivering a rally, stage and off‑road motorsport event. It covers the specific hazards faced by track‑side personnel, vehicle crews, riggers, lighting and sound technicians, fuel handlers and remote medical teams. The assessment focuses on the operational side of the event – set‑up of stages, spectator barriers, vehicle movement on mixed terrain, fuel and oil handling, temporary electrical power, and emergency response – and deliberately excludes crowd‑security, catering or retail stall activities.

The document aligns with the Motorsport UK Circuit Safety Standards, the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and relevant HSE guidance for motorsport events (HSG112). It also references the BS EN 13100:2015 standard for temporary structures and the BS 7121‑1:2020 code of practice for the safe use of temporary stages. All control measures follow the hierarchy of controls, prioritising elimination or substitution where possible, then engineering controls, safe work procedures and finally personal protective equipment (PPE).

Use this RA during pre‑event planning, daily briefings and post‑event reviews to demonstrate compliance and to ensure the safety of the crew working in remote, high‑speed, off‑road environments. The document is fully editable and can be customised to suit specific venue layouts, vehicle classes, and local regulatory requirements.

Use this template for:

  • Stage set‑up and breakdown planning
  • Vehicle route risk management
  • Fuel and hazardous material handling
  • Temporary structure erection and inspection
  • Emergency response coordination

Compliant with: Motorsport UK Circuit Safety Standards, Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974, HSE HSG112 guidance, BS EN 13100:2015, BS 7121‑1:2020, Manual Handling Operations Regulations 1992, Electricity at Work Regulations 1989.

A risk assessment form is the blank document; a risk assessment template is a pre-filled form ready to customise. Our generator gives you both - a free interactive form you fill in plus over 2500 pre-written templates you can customise to your specific workplace.

Do I need to create an account to use the risk assessment templates?

You can build and preview a risk assessment without an account. To download the PDF you'll need a free account - it takes less than a minute, costs nothing, and also lets you save documents to your dashboard, edit them later, and share them for digital signatures.

Yes - fully. Edit hazards, control measures, persons at risk, likelihood and severity ratings, PPE requirements, and review schedules. Each template is a starting point you tailor to your specific operation.

How many risks can I add to a single risk assessment?

The number of risks (hazards) you can include in one assessment depends on your plan: guests get unlimited risks, Free accounts unlimited risks, Standard unlimited risks, Pro unlimited risks, and Enterprise unlimited risks per assessment.

How often should I update my risk assessment?

Whenever there is reason to believe the assessment is no longer valid - after workplace changes, near-misses, accidents, new equipment, new substances, or new processes. HSE guidance recommends an annual formal review at minimum.

What is the HSE 5-step risk assessment process?

Step 1: Identify the hazards. Step 2: Decide who might be harmed and how. Step 3: Evaluate the risks and decide on precautions. Step 4: Record findings and implement them. Step 5: Review the assessment and update if necessary. Our interactive generator walks you through all 5 steps.
