Methodology
The PRisMA process: 11 steps, 3 stages
The official DOSH workflow, run end to end inside our system. Every step produces a table that appears in your final report.
Stage I
Hazard Identification
Steps 1 – 7- 1 Select the work units and the respondents who represent them
- 2 Distribute LEO26 (26 items, three components)
- 3 Calculate each individual score per component
- 4 Compare against the RICoV value and set individual status
- 5 Count the individuals falling in the high-risk band
- 6 Calculate the organisational percentage (n/N%)
- 7 Determine the organisational risk status
Stage II
Risk Assessment
Steps 8 – 9- 1 Complete EPC23 with the employer — every Yes needs evidence
- 2 Map each No against the LEO26 component it fails to control
Stage III
Risk Control
Steps 10 – 11- 1 Build the PRiMA table: every gap grouped under the seven action themes
- 2 Set the reassessment date
The three LEO26 components
Each component carries its own individual cut-off value (RICoV) and its own organisational threshold.
JC
Job Control
Control over the job
- Items
- 11 items
- Score range
- 11 – 55
- Individual RICoV
- ≥ 15.5
- Organisational threshold
- 50%
WD
Work Demand
Demands of the job
- Items
- 5 items
- Score range
- 5 – 25
- Individual RICoV
- ≥ 7.5
- Organisational threshold
- 25%
JS
Job Support
Support at work
- Items
- 10 items
- Score range
- 10 – 50
- Individual RICoV
- ≤ 38.5
- Organisational threshold
- 25%
Note: JS runs in the opposite direction. JS items are worded positively (support that is present), so a low score means weak support and high risk.
