In the controlling risks module, you’ll be introduced to ‘reasonably practicable’. It refers to your legal obligation, under the Health and Safety Act 1974, to reduce risks in the workplace so that everyone is safe.

But, it’s not at any cost. You’ll learn how to balance the money and time needed to manage the risk to create a reasonable plan of action.
