A Data-Driven Approach Based on Historical Hazard Records for Supporting Risk Analysis in Complex Workplaces

Risk analysis, as an important prerequisite of risk management, is critical to reducing occupational injuries and other related losses. However, suffering greatly from incomplete hazard identification and inaccurate probability analysis, risk analysis is considered the weakest link in risk managemen...

description Risk analysis, as an important prerequisite of risk management, is critical to reducing occupational injuries and other related losses.
