of facilities, processes, materials, and equipment. (ANSI/ASSP Z590.3‐2011(R2016))

       Probability:

       An estimate of the likelihood of an incident or exposure occurring that could result in harm or damage for a selected unit of time, events, population, items, or activity being considered. (ANSI/ASSP Z590.3‐2011(R2016))

       Measure of the chance of occurrence expressed as a number between 0 and 1, where 0 is impossibility and 1 is absolute certainty. (ANSI/ASSP/ISO 31010‐2019)

       An expression of the likelihood of occurrence of a mishap. (MIL‐STD‐882E‐2012)

       “Probability” is an expression of chances or odds and is pure number with no units usually expressed in a variety of ways such as 1 chance in 100 or 1% of the occurrences or 0.01 or even 1E‐02. The first of these expressions is recommended as the best, most easily interpreted way to describe a probability. (Whiting 2013)

       A series of progressive and interrelated steps by which an end is attained; continuous action, operation, or a series of changes taking place in a definite manner; the action of going forward. (ANSI/ASSP Z590.3‐2011(R2016))

       Set of interrelated or interacting activities which transforms inputs into outputs. (ANSI/ASSP/ISO 45001‐2018)

       Procedure:

       Specified way to carry out an activity or a process. (ANSI/ASSP/ISO 45001‐2018)

       Protective Measure (Risk Reduction Measure):

       Any action or means used to eliminate or control access to hazards and/or reduce risks. (ANSI B11.0‐2020)

       Qualitative Risk Assessment:

       A risk assessment based on subjective ratings. (Authors)

       Quantitative Risk Assessment:

       A risk assessment based on data supported numerical ratings. (Authors)

       Raw Risk:

       The initial risk assessed assuming no risk‐reduction methods are in place. Raw risk serves as a baseline for the measurement of further risk reduction. Raw risk estimations may also be applicable to situations where the existing controls are considered very low on the Hierarchy of Controls and/or unreliable such as warnings, administrative level, or personal protective equipment type controls. (Authors)

       Reasonable Foreseeable Misuse:

       The predictable use of facilities, equipment, or materials in a way not intended in the original design. (ANSI/ASSP Z590.3‐2011(R2016))

       Redesign:

       A design activity that includes all retrofitting and altering activities affecting existing facilities, equipment, technologies, materials, and processes, and the work methods. (ANSI/ASSP Z590.3‐2011(R2016))

       Residual Risk:

       The risk remaining after risk reduction measures have been taken. (ANSI/ASSP Z590.3‐2011(R2016))

       Risk remaining after risk treatment. (ISO Guide 73/ANSI/ASSP Z690.1‐2011)

       The risk remaining after risk reduction measures (protective measures) are taken. (ANSI B11.0‐2020)

       Risk:

       An estimate of the probability of a hazard‐related incident or exposure occurring and the severity of harm or damage that could result. (ANSI/ASSP Z590.3‐2011(R2016))

       Effect of uncertainty on objectives. (ANSI/ASSP/ISO 31000‐2018)

       Effect of uncertainty. Note 4 to entry: Risk is often expressed in terms of a combination of the consequences of an event (including changes in circumstances) and the associated “likelihood” (as defined in ISO Guide 73:3009, 3.6.1.1) of occurrence. (ANSI/ASSP/ISO 45001‐2018)

       An estimate of the combination of the likelihood of an occurrence of a hazardous event or exposure(s), and the severity of injury or illness that may be caused by the event or exposures. (ANSI/ASSP Z10.0‐2019)

       A combination of the probability of occurrence of harm and the severity of that harm. (ANSI B11.0‐2020)

       A combination of the likelihood of occurrence of injury or damage to health and the severity of injury or damage to health that results from a hazard. (NFPA 70E‐2018)

       A combination of the severity of the mishap and the probability that the mishap will occur. (MIL‐STD‐882E‐2012)

       Risk Acceptance:

       Informed decision to take a particular risk. (ISO Guide 73/ANSI/ASSP Z690.1‐2011)

       Risk Analysis:

       Process to comprehend the nature of risk and to determine the level of risk. (ISO Guide 73/ANSI/ASSP Z690.1‐2011)

       Risk Assessment:

       A process that commences with hazard identification and analysis, through which the probable severity of harm or damage is established, followed by an estimate of the probability of the incident or exposure occurring, and concluding with a statement of risk. (ANSI/ASSP Z590.3‐2011(R2016))

       Overall process of risk identification, risk analysis, and risk evaluation. (ISO Guide 73/ANSI/ASSP Z690.1‐2011)

       Process(es) used to evaluate the level of risk associated with hazards and system issues. (ANSI/ASSP Z10.0‐2019)

       The process by which the intended use of the machine, the tasks and hazards, and the level of risk are determined. (ANSI B11.0‐2020)

       An overall process that identifies hazards, estimates the likelihood of occurrence of injury or damage to health, estimates the potential severity of injury or damage to health, and determines if protective measures are required. (NFPA 70E‐2018)

       The scientific process that characterizes the nature and magnitude of health risks to humans and ecological receptors from chemical contaminants and other stressors that may be present in the environment. (Environmental Protection Agency)
