This week, in order to visualize further our task at hand as well as to get a better understanding on how to do an RA. Furthermore, this enables us to comprehend and fathom the pain and troubles that a normal person doing an RA would face so we know what our user form has to encompass in order to reduce the problems faced when constructing an RA.

Firstly, we went to W316 to review the practicals there and observe the preventive measures in place. Subsequently, Ms Serene assisted us in the location of the respective files regarding the practicals so we could begin doing our sample RA form.
We realized that one of the many troubles of doing an RA is looking out for the possible risk in the first place. Considering every possibility and the probability of that event occurring became a huge frustration. In addition, some of the risks we identified had no preventive measures somewhat. Risks such as tripping and knocking hazards were a bother as even though we understood that there could be a high probability of it occurring, there was not much we could do to mitigate its effects. One could wear safety helmets and boots, but that would still be insufficient to protect every area of the body. An arm, the back or even the chest can be bruised and there does not seem to be any plausible way to circumvent that.

In the end, we somehow completed it with the approval (albeit with some add-ons and comments) of our supervisor. the screenshots are as follows:
