Safety Risk Assessment

Under health and safety and work regulations, it is the employers duty to make a suitable and sufficient assessment of risks to the health and safety of employees and non-employees at the booth. A safety risk assessment is a careful examination of anything in the work environment that could cause injury or ill health. This involves identifying the hazards present onsite, then devising ways to minimise and control those hazards.  

Guidance for those completing the Safety Risk Assessment
When completing a Risk Assessment think about and consider what you will be displaying on the booth, where everything will be positioned, and decide if there is anything that could cause anyone any harm to anyone (e.g. trailing wires, hot water, heavy boxes, trip hazards, etc.) Then think about what precautions and controls measures your will implement to prevent these things from harming anyone, and detail these in your risk assessment. Precautions and control measures can include training and the provision of information as well as practical measures such as safety guards and the implementation of a minimum safe distance. 

Do this for the build-up, exhibition open days and dismantling. Weigh up whether you have taken enough precautions or should do more to prevent harm. The important aspect is whether a hazard is significant, and whether you have covered it by satisfactory precautions and controls, so that the risk is small.  

If you are building a booth, your risk assessment must also include a detailed analysis of all the risks associated with your booth build, fitting and removal (e.g., working at height, use of tools, risk of fire, hazardous substances, heavy loads, live electricity, etc); and again what precautions and control measures you will implement in order to lower the risk to a safe level. 

If you are building a large or complicated stand, or are involved in unusual activities during the exhibition, you may need to seek the assistance of a qualified Health & Safety professional.  

The following is your step-by-step guide to completing a risk assessment:

Step 1: Look for the hazards
Look for hazards that you would reasonably expect to result in significant harm under the conditions in your booth space. Hazards are anything that can cause harm.
Ask yourself:
  • What equipment, materials and substances will be used?
  • How much noise and dust will there be?
  • What are the ground conditions?
  • How are your disposing of waste?
  • What electrical installation are there?


Potential hazards:                                                                                             
  • Slipping / tripping hazards
  • Fire
  • Chemicals
  • Moving parts
  • Working at height
  • Electricity
  • Vehicles
  • Dust
  • Fumes
  • Noise
  • Poor lighting
  • Temperature
  • Heavy goods

Step 2: Decide who might be harmed and how
Ask yourself the questions below. There is no need to list individuals by name. Think about groups of people doing similar work or who may be affected, eg
  • Who will be affected by your work and at most risk?
  • Who are your employees, contractors or exhibitors on or near your booth?
  • How will your visitors be affected?
  • Groups include staff, contractors, guests, venue service staff, among others
Step 3: Evaluate the risks

A risk is the likelihood of a hazard causing harm. Decide whether the existing precautions are adequate or whether more should be done for the hazards listed. As yourself whether the existing precautions reduce the risk as far as reasonably practicable, represent good practice, meet industry norms and legal requirements. 

Once you have done this adequately you can then decide on the appropriate action, ask yourself if the risk can be removed completely or can things be done in a different way? If not, can the risk be isolated, controlled or reduced? 
Step 4: Record the findings
Write down the significant hazards and conclusions. You must also tell your employees about your findings. You should be able to demonstrate that you have made a suitable assessment by identifying what the main hazards are, who might be affected, that the precautions are reasonable, and the risk is low.

Step 5: Review your assessment
Review your assessment and revise as necessary, inevitably new plans may develop and new observations may be made which could lead to new hazards requiring an assessment. It is good practice to review your assessment from time to time to make sure precautions are working effectively, allowing you to learn by experience.

Dress Code

Exhibition stand staff are expected to dress in business and/or business casual attire and behave in an appropriate, professional manner. Given the Event’s global profile and their convening of an entire industry and ecosystem, exhibition stand staff come from a broad range of cultures and nations. GSMA asks that this diversity and inclusivity is reflected in exhibition stand staff choice of clothing (e.g. clothing with political slogans or military fatigues would not be appropriate attire for an Event).

GSMA reserves the right to request that any exhibition stand staff alter their attire or leave the Event immediately if their appearance and/or conduct: (i) is inappropriate given the professional and global nature of an Event; and / or (ii) could reasonably be deemed to be offensive to other Event participants.

Emergencies

To report an emergency, call From House Phone 83333 or Outside Line (702) 678-0911.

Venue Customer Safety staff are trained to handle emergency situations. The Customer Safety Department is operational 24 hours a day and becomes the communications center and command post in the event of an emergency. All emergencies should be reported to the Fontainebleau Las Vegas first

Dialling 911 will delay the response by medical personnel who may not be able to find or get to the location of the emergency
