This topic describes how to perform an unmitigated risk assessment for a Consequence in a hazards analysis.
Note: You can assess the unmitigated risk for a Consequence only if the corresponding Hazards Analysis is in the Planning state.
Steps
Access the Consequence for which you want to assess the unmitigated risk.
If you have already performed a risk assessment for the Consequence, the overall risk rank and the risk ranks for each category appear above the datasheet.
Above the datasheet for the Consequence, select the section that displays the unmitigated risk rank.
The Unmitigated Risk Assessment window appears, displaying the risk matrix for each category.
Specify the unmitigated risk rank for each category as applicable, and then select Save.
The overall unmitigated risk rank and the risk ranks for individual categories are displayed above the datasheet for the Consequence. Depending on your configuration, the overall risk rank can be the highest or the sum of all the ranks for all the categories.
Note: See the Overview of the Risk Matrix section of the documentation for additional options when working with the risk matrix.
IMPORTANT: If you change the unmitigated risk rank after assessing the mitigated risk rank, the previously completed mitigated risk assessments for all Safeguards are deleted. You will need to assess the mitigated risk rank again.
