HAZARDmeans the potential to cause harm.

RISKmeans the degree of likelihood that a hazard will cause harm.

PERSONS AT RISKwho may be affected by a risk, i.e. the number of people who might be exposed to the hazard

RISKtherefore reflects both the likelihood that harm will occur and it’s severity.

RISK ASSESSMENTis controlling the level of risk; it might be summarised as follows:
