Risk Assessment

Question:

Select a discipline that you are interested in from one of; occupational hygiene, environment or engineering.

Discuss the role of risk assessment in achieving better outcomes for a project related to your discipline (eg., workers at a factory and use of cleaning chemicals, management of a particular species or ecosystem, or community members concerned about pollution from a factory).

What processes or tools would need to be incorporated into the risk assessment to ensure that risk assessment results in better decision making - for all stakeholders?

Who are the stakeholders at risk or who may have an interest - in summary, who are they and what their interest is.

Discuss how you would raise identified issues with the stakeholders to ascertain whether the risks were acceptable.

Detail a risk communication strategy to the identified stakeholders.

Wherever possible, use actual "issues" to illustrate your answers. These may be related to international events, but would need to be used in a local context.
