This document provides training on risk assessment and management. It defines key terms like hazard, risk, likelihood, and consequence. It explains the process of identifying hazards, analyzing risks, and evaluating risks. Methods of risk treatment like eliminating, substituting, engineering controls, administrative controls, and PPE are covered. Guidelines for assessing likelihood and consequence are provided to determine risk levels. The document also discusses factors that affect risk and outlines a risk analysis matrix to evaluate inherent and residual risks.

Terms & Definitions
TERMS DEFINITION
Hazard Source with a potential to cause injury and ill health
Injury & ill health Adverse effect on the physical, mental or cognitive condition of a person
OH&S Risk
Combination of the likelihood of occurrence of a work- related hazardous event or exposure(s) and the severity of injury
or ill health that can be caused by the event or exposure(s)
Risk Assessment Overall process of risk identification, risk analysis and risk evaluation
Risk Combination of estimated magnitude of harm & possibility of the harm generated from hazard.
Risk analysis Process to comprehend the nature of risk and to determine the level of risk.
Risk evaluation
Process of comparing the results of risk analysis with risk criteria to determine whether the risk and/or its magnitude is
acceptable or tolerable
Risk Treatment Process to modify risk
Acceptable risk
Risk that has been reduced to a level that can be tolerated by the organization having regard to its legal obligations and
its own OHS policy.
Residual risk Risk remaining after risk treatment
Level of risk Magnitude of a risk or combination of risks, expressed in terms of the combination of consequences and their likelihood
Hazardous situation Situation where people is exposed to the hazard(s). The exposure to the situation induces acute or chronic harm.
Hazardous zone
Danger zone
Space where people is exposed to the hazard such as the inside of and/or near the equipment.

methods at the top of graphic are potentially
more effective and protective than those at the
bottom. Following this hierarchy normally leads to
the implementation of inherently safer systems,

substantially reduced

Prevention/Elimination
Prevent a hazard from occurring in the first place or change the process or substitute non-
hazardous materials or equipment to eliminate it.
Engineered Controls
Hazards are a part of the process, but physical controls, such as machine guards, minimize
their risk to people and the environment.
• Barriers/Guards • Containment curbs/walls
• Ventilation • Pressure relief devices
• Enclosures
Management Controls
Prevent injury by putting protective equipment on the employee, by teaching the employee
to avoid the hazard, or by limiting the amount of time the individual is exposed.
• Rules/procedures/instructions • Communication
• Training • Job rotation
• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
