, 1. Identify reasons why risk analysis is considered by health and safety
organisations. (10)
Risk analysis is a crucial component for health and safety organizations due to various
reasons, encompassing both internal and external factors. Here are ten reasons why
risk analysis is considered:
1. Compliance with Company Policy (Internal): Organizations establish policies to
ensure the safety and well-being of their employees and stakeholders. Risk
analysis helps in aligning processes with these policies, ensuring adherence to
internal safety standards.
2. Adherence to Industry Standards (External): Many industries have specific safety
standards and guidelines. Conducting risk analysis allows organizations to
evaluate their processes against these external benchmarks and make
necessary adjustments to meet industry best practices.
3. Community Relations (External): Companies often operate within communities,
and their activities can impact the local population. Engaging in risk analysis
helps organizations identify potential hazards and risks that may affect the
community, contributing to positive community relations.
4. Change in Processes (Internal): When companies introduce new processes or
modify existing ones, they inherently introduce new elements of risk. Risk
analysis is essential during such changes to identify, evaluate, and mitigate
potential hazards associated with the altered processes.
5. Change in Hazard Awareness (Internal): As the understanding of hazards
evolves, organizations must update their risk assessments accordingly. Regular
risk analysis ensures that organizations remain aware of changing hazards and
can take proactive measures to mitigate associated risks.
6. Accidents/Near Misses (Internal/External): Learning from past incidents is critical
for preventing future accidents. Internal accidents and near misses provide
valuable data for risk analysis, helping organizations identify weak points and
vulnerabilities in their systems.
