Data Item |
Description |
1 |
Equipment category |
System, subsystem, unit or component where the hazard exists.
Example:
Space Shuttle Thermal Protection System
|
2 |
Hazard description |
A brief summary of the hazard
Example:
Damaged thermal tiles. |
3 |
Operational mode |
Identify the operational mode where the hazard occurs.
Example:
Shuttle launch |
4 |
Hazard cause(s) |
Conditions and events that cause the hazard.
Example:
Insulating foam detaches from the propellant tank and strikes thermal tiles. |
5 |
Hazard effects |
Potential adverse effects on the system, people, property and the environment as a result of the hazard causing an accident.
Example:
Ingress of hot gasses into the Space Shuttle hull during re-entry to the earth's atmosphere causes destruction of the Shuttle. |
6 |
Risk level |
Given the presence of the hazard, the probability and severity of an accident (refer risk).
Example:
Probability: probable
Severity: catastrophic |
7 |
Risk reduction measures |
Measures proposed to reduce risk. For example, possible safeguards, recommended action, design criteria, safety requirements.
Example:
Inspect Space Shuttle heat shield while docked at the Space Station prior to re-entry. |
8 |
Risk reduction implementation authority |
The organization(s) or organizational group(s) responsible for implementing the risk reduction measures.
Example:
Mission Planning |
9 |
Hazard responsibility |
The organization or organizational group responsible for ensuring that safeguards are provided for the hazard.
Example:
Mission Control |
10 |
Verification of corrective action |
Specified methods for determining that the hazard has been effectively controlled or its outcome mitigated. For example, tests, demonstration, analysis, inspections.
Example:
Inspect mission plan for addition of heat shield inspection procedure. |
11 |
Other proposed and necessary actions |
Example:
Investigate methods to prevent foam detaching from the propellant tank during Shuttle launch. |
12 |
Risk reduction measures taken |
The measures actually taken to reduce risk.
Example:
Mission Plan passed inspection 12 June, 2011 (refer review report XYZ). |
13 |
Residual risk |
The risk remaining after risk reduction measures have been taken.
Example:
None |
14 |
Hazard resolution status |
Remarks on the status of the hazard resolution process. For example: open | in progress | pending action by others | closed.
Note that a hazard is deemed closed when it has been verified that the recommended risk reduction measures have been implemented and are effective.
Example:
closed |
