Safety Analysis

Safety Analysis

---

Safety analysis can be applied as a practical tool in occupational safety and has three main elements:

• The identification of hazards.
• The assessment of risks that arise.
• The generation of measures to increase the level of safety.

A number of simple methods can be used in industry and the workplace, such as deviation analysis, energy analysis and job safety analysis, which address risks in ordinary workplaces. For special cases more technically oriented methods are required such as fault tree analysis, event tree analysis and HAZOP.  Cost-benefit analysis can also be undertaken on request.
