Our environmental risk assessment template equips you to systematically identify, evaluate, and control environmental hazards across your organization. With increasing regulatory scrutiny, you need a reliable way to document pollution sources, manage chemical storage, handle waste, and address other site-specific risks.

According to the US Environmental Protection Agency, the federal government receives an average of 12 reports of hazardous substance releases every day, showing just how frequently incidents occur. This template helps you tackle challenges like this directly directly, with targeted checklists and action tracking that go beyond general or HSE risk templates. Our template library also features risk assessment forms for fire safety, COSHH, or construction projects.

Frequently asked questions

What are the main steps in an environmental risk assessment process?

The main steps include identifying potential environmental hazards, evaluating the likelihood and impact of those hazards, implementing controls to reduce risk, and regularly reviewing the assessment to ensure controls remain effective.

Which industries are most at risk for environmental hazards?

Industries like manufacturing, construction, chemicals, mining, and logistics often face higher risks due to the nature of their operations. However, any business handling hazardous substances or generating waste should conduct regular environmental risk assessments.

How do you determine the severity of an environmental risk?

Severity is determined by considering the potential impact on people, property, and the environment if a hazard were to occur. This involves evaluating the scale and duration of possible harm, as well as regulatory or financial consequences.

What challenges do companies face when carrying out environmental risk assessments?

Common challenges include lack of up-to-date information, difficulty engaging cross-functional teams, rapidly changing regulations, and limited resources for monitoring and follow-up. Using digital tools and clear processes can help overcome these obstacles.
