Assessing hazards involves identifying and evaluating potential risks that could cause harm to people, property, or the environment. This process includes analyzing the likelihood of hazards occurring and the severity of their impact. It is a critical step in risk management that helps in developing strategies to mitigate or eliminate these risks. Effective hazard assessment ensures informed decision-making and enhances safety in various settings.
You should review the methods for assessing the probability and severity of hazards for your unit.
In assessing hazards, it is important to consider various elements such as the type of hazard present, the likelihood of it occurring, the potential impact or consequences it may have, and the vulnerabilities of the affected population or environment. Understanding these elements helps to identify, prioritize, and address hazards effectively to prevent or mitigate their impact.
