Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A team is assessing risks for a new automated construction project. They identify a critical malfunction risk with a severity of 5 and a likelihood of 2. Using the risk matrix, calculate the overall risk level and suggest measures to achieve ALARP.

💡 Hint: Remember to multiply severity and likelihood to find the risk level.

Question 2

Compare the approaches of two different companies assessing risks: Company A uses a strict dollar threshold for safety investments, while Company B employs the ALARP principle. Discuss how each approach impacts safety outcomes and regulatory compliance.

💡 Hint: Think about the flexibility and responsiveness of each approach.
