Which is the third step in IAMIS?

• A. Identify Hazard
• B. Assess Hazards
• C. Make Risk Decisions
• D. Supervise

Answer: (C)

The third step in IAMIS is Make Risk Decisions. After hazards are identified and assessed, you must decide how to handle the risk. This means evaluating the level of risk based on how likely the hazard is to occur and how severe the potential impact would be, then choosing appropriate actions: accept the risk with planned mitigations, modify the plan to reduce risk, transfer or avoid the hazard, or halt the operation if the risk is unacceptable. This decision stage determines whether the operation proceeds as planned, with specific controls, or is stopped altogether. The next step then is to implement the chosen controls, and finally, supervision ensures the controls are followed and new hazards are monitored.
