  3. What does 'dynamic risk assessment' mean for a door supervisor on shift?

    Answer: Continuously assessing hazards and threats throughout the shift and adapting accordingly

    Dynamic risk assessment is ongoing observation and evaluation during your shift — assessing crowd density, intoxication levels, potential hazards, and adjusting your approach in real-time.

  4. What is a 'prohibition notice' from the HSE?

    Answer: An enforcement notice requiring immediate cessation of dangerous activities

    Answer: Pull the pin, Aim at the base, Squeeze the handle, Sweep side to side

  6. What personal protective equipment (PPE) might a door supervisor need?

    Answer: Hi-vis jacket, stab vest (venue dependent), radio, torch — as determined by risk assessment

    PPE requirements depend on the venue's risk assessment. Higher-risk venues may require stab vests, while all venues should provide radios for communication.
