The employer is responsible for risk assessments within a workplace, meaning that it is their responsibility to ensure it is carried out. An employer can appoint an appropriate individual to carry out a risk assessment on behalf of the organisation, as long as they are competent to do so.
A risk assessment team (workgroup) is a separate and often independent unit within the project management team headed by the Project manager. It helps place a value on the project's activities (such as procuring, communicating, controlling quality, staffing, etc.).
Tools and material required include templates, a checklist used to verify and procedures on posters or in manuals describing what can be done.
