Summary:

"Risk assessments have been given more prominence as an element in an operational risk management system. This text explains how a wide array of risk assessment tools are used including: preliminary hazard analysis, job safety analysis, task analysis, job risk assessment, personnel protective equipment hazard assessment, What If / Checklist Analysis Methods, failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA), Layers of Protection Analysis (LOPA), and bowtie analysis, among others. Now in color and updated to reflect the latest standards, theories, and methodologies, this book provides the fundamentals on risk assessment, with practical applications, for undergraduate and graduate students and employed safety, health, and environmental professionals who recognize that they are expected to have risk assessment capabilities. The book includes interactive exercises, links, videos, and online risk assessment tools"-- Provided by publisher.
