Risk Assessment & Health & Safety | Professional Beauty London 2020

Professional Beauty OCTOBER 2020

  • ALL EXHBITORS are required to complete a Risk Assessment that covers them for the entire duration of the exhibition;
  • Should you have a Contractor building your stand, you (the Exhibitor) must still complete this form, particularly as it now contains the Health & Safety Declaration pertaining to the stand's treatment activity;
  • Your Risk Assessment should cover the open period, as well as build and break - this may come as 2 separate Assessments from both the Exhibitor and Contractor, or as a combined Assessment.

Begin by identifying the stand below -

Risk Assessment

Risk Assessments are a legal requirement, and will be the first thing your insurance provider will ask for should something occur. If you cannot provide one, it is unlikely that you will be covered.

A Risk Assessment covers you from the moment you arrive on-site during build, details your activities during open days, and sees you out through breakdown, and shows that you have considered risks not just to yourself, but to your staff, your contractors, visitors - anyone that will interact with your stand in any way.

The aim of a Risk Assessment is to demonstrate that you have taken due consideration to minimize all risks to your time on-site.
Upload a Risk Assessment

The open period must be covered, as well as build and breakdown, for each stand.
Enter a Risk Assessment

Use this section to prepare a Risk Assessment. For reference, you can download an example here.

A reminder that this is simply an aid; it is your responsibility to identify any hazards presented on or by your stand and to declare them before coming on-site.
This is not an exhaustive list - if you perceive further risks than those listed above (particularly in relation to treatments), you should continue on to detail them below.
