The occupiers of a site have a duty of care to take reasonable precautions under the Occupiers Liability Act to prevent or minimise risk of injury arising from any trees that are on site. At Arbconsultants we are experts in hazard analysis and tree risk assessment. A typical Tree Hazard Assessment will be carried out from the ground using the Visual Tree Assessment System and will detail:

• tree location
• tree species, size class and age class
• tree condition including pathogens and structural defects
• target
• risk
• recommendations including any remedial work to the tree or surrounding environment.
• expected monitoring frequency
