Safety Risk Management (SRM)

Mitigate

RisksIdentify actions, controls, or other measures to

reduce the likelihood of consequences.

Assess RisksSeverity and likelihood are used to determine

associated risk.

Analyze Risks For each hazard, identify worst case outcomes.

Determine consequences; likelihood & severity.

Identify Hazards Identify any condition or situation that could

create adverse safety consequences.

Describe

SystemIdentify all related systems.
