Working a venue with large numbers of persons present is an example of what level of risk?

  1. High-risk

  2. Low-risk

  3. Medium-risk

  4. No-risk

The correct answer is: Medium-risk

Large gatherings or crowds can pose certain risks, be them from noise, aggressive behavior or even health and safety hazards. Working in these conditions can increase the likelihood of accidents or incidents, making it a medium-risk situation. In contrast, calling it a high-risk scenario goes beyond exaggeration, as not all crowds will be dangerous, proposing an immediate threat. Work facilitated in more controlled environments, with fewer people involved, would generally allow for a lower risk. No-risk would be a wrong choice as no scenario is completely without risk.
