Risk assessment and hazard identification serve as core functions in maintaining operational stability and institutional compliance. They enable organizations to recognize potential sources of disruption, measure their relevance, and establish structured classifications for threat response. These functions rely on defined procedures to detect, categorize, and evaluate exposure across operational systems. This training program explores how risks are structured, prioritized, and aligned with oversight requirements across technical, administrative, and environmental contexts.
