This template will assist employers in carrying out a risk assessment required by the Protection of Pregnant, Post Natal and Breastfeeding Employees Regulations 2007.
On being informed that an employee is pregnant, you must carry out an assessment to consider if there are specific risks from the work to the employee and decide if any action needs to be taken to protect against something that could damage her health or that of her developing child. The existing workplace risk assessments should be available and may need to be examined whilst completing the individual risk assessment for the employee.
