The risk management of safety and dependability
Woodhead Publishing Ltd, April 2010, Pages: 312
The issue of risk should be embedded into the mind set of every engineer and manager to improve safety and dependability. Companies can be held accountable through law when a gross failing in health and safety management has fatal consequences. Here risk management, the organizational structure required and the main factors needed for its successful execution are explored. What risks must be managed as a legal requirement? How is risk quantified? What methods can be used to reduce risk? Such questions are addressed, alongside case histories of recent disasters to illustrate failures in risk management. This accessible book presents the key factors, so that even non-experts in small and medium-sized organisations, as well as engineers and managers, can apply sound safety and dependability principles.
