Do we need to record COSHH assessments on a specific form?

No. Risk assessments may vary in their complexity, so you are free to use something that works for you. However, make sure you cover the key points:

	what are the dangers, and to whom, doing what task

	what control measures could prevent harm

	using these control measures and checking that they work


Further information on risk assessments in particular [industries](http://www.hse.gov.uk/coshh/industry.htm) is available.
