With a trivial risk: Preventive action is required together with periodical checking. Work should not be started until the risk has been reduced. No specific action is required. Work has to be prohibited.

A risk is considered to be moderate when there exist: Slightly harmful consequences and low probability of occurrence. Extremely harmful consequences and medium probability of occurrence. Slightly harmful consequences and medium probability of occurrence. All the above answers are false.
