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.
