Understanding Critical Risks and SOPs on the review page

This guide is for anyone who reviews a job; the Critical Risks view needs the Critical Risks feature. On a job's review page you can switch between Suggestions, SOPs (your company's standard operating procedures) and Critical Risks (hazards that could cause a serious injury or fatality, also called SIF) to check a RAMS (Risk Assessment and Method Statement) from different angles.

Who can use this?

Anyone who can review the job (Authors, Approvers and Project Admins who can open the review page).
Critical Risks is available only if your organisation has the Critical Risks feature. Otherwise it shows as locked.

Before you start

Open the job's review page.

How do I switch views?

Use the floating switch on the review page and choose SOPs, Critical Risks or Suggestions.

What does the SOPs view show?

The SOPs view lists the controls suggested from your organisation's standard operating procedures, grouped by activity under Standard Operating Procedures. Each control shows the risk it applies to, and tags such as Matched Your Risk or Matched Your Activity to show why it was suggested. If none of your SOPs match, you see No SOPs available.

What does the Critical Risks view show?

Critical Risks and Hazards: the high-consequence hazards found in this RAMS, shown one at a time.
Controls coverage: how well each critical risk is covered by Direct and Indirect (secondary) controls.
Critical Risk Review: a table of Hazard, Activity, Risk, Controls inserted and Total controls.

How do I filter suggestions and see the review summary?

Select Filters to narrow the list by Type (Risks or Hazards), Mitigation level, Source, Status (Inserted) or Activities. In the Critical Risks view you can also filter by Control type (Direct or Indirect); Mitigation level is not available in that view. You can also choose a Sort by order: None, Mitigation count or Alphabetical. Select Summary to see the Review Summary with totals of what you have reviewed. See Risk Assessment Suggestions (Link).

What happens next?

Accept or reject suggestions as usual. See How to review and accept a RAMS (Link).
