ALARP HSE: As Low As Reasonably Practicable

 ALARP HSE: As Low As Reasonably Practicable




Definition:  

ALARP (As Low As Reasonably Practicable) is an HSE principle requiring risks to be reduced to the lowest level reasonably achievable, balancing risk reduction benefits against time, trouble, and cost.

  

The infographic explains the 5-step ALARP process: 1. Identify the Hazard, 2. Assess the Risk, 3. Implement Controls, 4. Evaluate Further Reduction, 5. ALARP Achieved. It defines “reasonably practicable” using Time, Trouble, Cost, and Risk Reduction Benefit. Examples include silica dust control via ventilation, water suppression, and training. ALARP in action relies on leadership, engagement, communication, monitoring, and shared responsibility.
