Emergency management Trends

Hazard management is the field of identifying, analyzing, and eliminating potential hazards in a workplace or community to reduce loss of life and property. The process involves four steps, which are identifying the risk, assessing the risk, treating the risk, and monitoring and reporting on the risk. Factors that can cause hazards include people, equipment, material, environment, and process. Hazards can be natural or man-made, and the framework to manage them is called the hazard management cycle. The goal is to exercise a level of control over the risks to achieve safety and environmental compliance. Hazard management jobs involve identifying potential hazards and implementing measures to mitigate or eliminate them. A hazard management plan (HMP) is a written safety and environmental plan that provides a framework for compliance with safety regulations.
