Hazards Identification and Risk Management
The Hazards Identification and Risk Management course provides essential training on recognizing workplace hazards and implementing risk management strategies. It equips participants with the skills to assess risks, develop control measures, and ensure compliance with safety regulations, promoting a safer work environment.
What is the Hazards Identification and Risk Management?
The Hazard Identification and Risk Management course from the American Institute of Safety Professionals extends beyond the HIRA (Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment) course by covering the complete risk management lifecycle: not just identifying hazards and assessing risk, but managing risk through treatment, monitoring, review, and continuous improvement. While HIRA teaches assessment methodology, this course teaches risk management as an ongoing business process integrated with organisational decision-making. The curriculum covers systematic hazard identification (multiple techniques applied across operations), risk assessment methodology (likelihood × consequence, risk matrices, semi-quantitative methods), risk treatment (the hierarchy of controls applied with cost-benefit awareness), risk registers (living documents tracking hazards, assessments, controls, owners, review dates), control effectiveness verification, residual risk assessment and acceptance, the ALARP principle, risk monitoring and review, risk communication and reporting, integration with management systems (ISO 45001, ISO 31000 awareness), and the risk management governance that sustains the process. All training is delivered 100% online through the American Institute of Safety Professionals LMS. Upon completion, graduates receive a certificate, wallet card, and transcript, employer-verifiable at amiosp.com/student-verifications.
