Best Answer

An intrisic hazard is a hazard that would be present as a result of the intrinsic use of the area, space or equipment, for example, a sewer will contain sewage which may produce methane or hydrogen sulphide (toxic or flammable gases). You would reasonably expect the hazard to be there, as opposed to an introduced hazard which would be something you would take in there with you, (using a confined space as an example) taking in welding equipment which can cause an emergency to arise.
