4.2 Guidelines to the operational risk assessment An operational risk assessment shall be performed by the slide operator, based on the results of the design risk assessment, as a basis for the identification of the proper supervision, following the requirements of EN 15288-2. In addition, and referring to the fact that impact between the users proved to be a critical issue, also the following risks shall be taken into consideration: a) inappropriate spacing at the start between users; b) sliding position (e.g. sitting) can bring the user to an involuntary stop; c) significant differences in speed can cause collisions of users; d) significant differences in speed caused by: 1) different sliding positions; 2) different bathing costume respectively wearing hardly any bathing costume (e.g. G-string type); 3) different fitness, size, weight and age of user; 4) changing water flow rate (malfunction of water supply); e) reasonably foreseeable risky behaviours by the users: 1) higher risk of collision between users at a splashdown area in contrast to a catch unit; f) suitability for children; g) foreseeable users categories (e.g. adults, children, both) and number of users (e.g. chain sliding allowed); h) allowed use of ride enhancement devices (e.g. mattresses, rafts). Examples of general and specific risk assessments are given in Annex B.
4.3 Risk reduction The operator shall take measures to reduce possible risks to a minimum bearing in mind the risky behaviours of users by choosing an appropriate level of distance control and supervision and shall identify a risk reduction strategy from the following options: SIST EN 1069-2:2010

c) a proper level of supervision/technical measures as a result of the risk assessment. Additional safety equipments which may be used: d) For the user: The installation of a monitor at the start section that transmits the situation at the end of the slide and at the catch unit/splashdown area for the person who is starting to see whether the catch unit or the splashdown area of the pool is free. e) For the supervisory staff: The installation of a monitor at the staff terminal that transmits the situation at the start and the end of the slide and at the catch unit/splashdown area. The quality of technical distance control equipment depends on the risk assessment and should be carried out in accordance with EN ISO 13849-2. 4.4 Basic elements for the identification of proper supervision
The operator, by performing the part of the risk assessment concerning proper supervision, shall take into account at least the following: a) kind of landing: 1) catch unit; 2) sofa unit; 3) special pool and its water depth at landing; 4) general purpose pool and its water depth at landing; b) speed at the final part; c) presence and kind of distance control: 1) full technical distance control; 2) traffic lights; 3) other types; d) visibility for the user: 1) slide fully visible from the start; 2) catch unit visible from the start; 3) pool visible from the start. The use of mandatory and prohibition signs and public information symbols should also be considered when determining the proper supervision to enforce them.
