The logical conclusion is that high probability and high severity required significant action to lower both severity and probability, while low probability and low severity would likely not require any or very little corrective action. Well...

... or workplaces, can we use concepts like probabilities, the precautionary principle, ALARA, or acceptable risks to justify the risk level we can morally and legally accept? Safety should be more about putting energies on known and proven dangers than on eliminating hypothetical and rare risks. As we all know...

... that can be precisely measured and managed. The misconception of risk as a fixed attribute is ingrained into our industry and is a product of the so-called science of risk management.

A risk assessment is different than a traditional ergonomic risk analysis approach because it factors in a calculated risk number based on the potential severity of an incident and probability of an incident. In addition, a traditional ergonomic analysis...

... (consequence) and probability (likelihood). A matrix is used to determine the risk based on the product of these two factors. Once of the challenges we face is that there is no one universal matrix. B11 uses a 4×4 matrix, Z10 a 4×5, and DoD a 5×4. Another key is the risk factor definitions. While terms like...
