Risk Analysis





‘Risk analysis’ is employed in its broadest sense
to include:

;Risk assessment
:involves identifying sources of potential harm, assessing the likelihood that harm will occur and the consequences if harm does occur.

;Risk management
:evaluates which risks identified in the risk assessment process require management and selects and implements the plans or actions that are required to ensure that those risks are controlled.

;Risk communication
:involves an interactive dialogue between stakeholders and risk assessors and risk managers which actively informs the other processes.

Risk analysis = risk assessment + risk management + risk communication.
