How to Perform a Security Risk Assessment

Download Guide

Performing a security risk assessment is the first step to enhancing the security profile of your construction job sites. Our free-to-download template is all you need to get started.

Construction sites remain an easy target for opportunistic thieves, particularly as the price of key materials continues to rise. 

Recently released statistics from the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB) and the National Equipment Register (NER) estimate construction site crime costs between $300m and $1b annually.

Despite growing crime rates, site owners and construction project managers leave themselves vulnerable by failing to take adequate security precautions.

The security of your job site should be a key priority, and understanding the likely risks you face is the first step to enhancing the overall security profile. Below, WCCTV presents its free-to-download Security Risk Assessment template.

How to Perform a Security Risk Assessment

The most important part of planning any job site security response is a risk assessment.

Our free-to-download template is the perfect place to start if you're unfamiliar with completing a risk assessment.

Feel free to adapt our template as required for your site; we have tried to keep things as general as possible while focusing on the threats our clients have experienced. 

Your risk assessment should cover all the potential threats and hazards that could impact your construction site and assess their likelihood and impact on your project should they occur.

For each of the threats you list, there is a column to list any countermeasure you intend to put in place to help mitigate against the likelihood or impact of the threat.

Remember to review your risk assessment every time your sites change or develop. Changes to your site can result in new vulnerabilities that your original plan did not consider.
