We Identify processes and situations that may cause harm, particularly to people.
Determine how likely it is that each hazard will occur and how severe the consequences would be.
Decide what steps the organization can take to stop these hazards from occurring or to control the risk.
It’s important to note the difference between hazards and risks. A hazard is anything that can cause harm, including work accidents, emergency situations, toxic chemicals, employee conflicts, stress, and more. A risk, on the other hand, is the chance that a hazard will cause harm. As part of your risk assessment plan, you will identify hazards but then calculate the risk or likelihood of the hazards occurring.
The goal of a risk assessment plan will vary across industries, but overall, the goal is to help organizations prepare for and combat risk. Other goals include:
Businesses should perform risk assessment before introducing new processes or activities, before introducing changes to existing processes or activities (such as changing machinery), or when the company identifies a new hazard.
The steps used in risk assessment form an integral part of your organization’s health and safety management plan and ensure that your organization is prepared to handle any risk.
