Risk Assessment Status
The following statuses are used to track a risk assessment for materials located in any folder.
Status of Risk Assessment | Icon | Description |
Assessment Required | | Any material in any folder is assigned this default status. When a new material is added into a folder, the “Assessment Required” status is assigned. Copying a material that has already been risk assessed from the source folder into the same folder or another will also render this status. |
Assessment Complete |
| When a material with known hazards (classification by CW available) has been risk assessed, will render the risk assessment complete. |
Review Required | | When the period set for the assessment (maximum ≤ 5years) elapses, the status of the assessment will automatically change from “Assessment Complete” to “Review Required”. |
Assessment Incomplete |
| When an assessment has not been completed for any reason or the process was not finalised, and the assessment was not saved, the risk assessment status will be rendered the status “Assessment Incomplete”. Hence, it is imperatively important to finalise a risk assessment to complete status where necessary. |
Assessment Not Required |
| A risk assessment for a material can be assigned this status if the material does not require an assessment at all. This type of risk assessment status can be applicable to materials with hazard rating and risk band rating = 0. It can also be assigned to materials classified as DGC7 and 9 as these classes are not covered in the Risk Assessment module criteria.

Nonhazardous chemicals pose no risk and hence by default, the hazard rating and risk band=0. Any assessment date 
; the default 5 years or custom date, will be shown in the risk assessment report.
