A risk assessment



A risk assessment tries to define all risks in presence , evaluates the probability and the gravity of each one.


Safety and Security



A difference should be made between Safety and Security. Safety intends to reduce risks in terms of accidents, incidents, damage due to them and consequences of these activities on health. On the other hand, Security deals with the misuse of devices and voluntary acts which creates risks for others. We only worked on the safety during the project.
