Review Test Submission: Quiz 7 - Robust

Design
Question 1

Hazard versus Risk. (select all correct answers) 0.25

points

Correct
Answers:

A hazard is any source of potential harm

A hazard should be further assessed only if it
can (somehow) create an impact
A risk is the chance of something happening
that will have an impact on objectives
Risks should include the chance of not
achieving the expected performance of a
design
The likelihood of delays and cost overruns are
risks to a development project
Uncertainty about development scope, cost or
time increases the overall project risk

Question 2
Likelihood versus Consequences versus Risk.
(select all correct answers) 0.25 points

Correct
Answers:

Likelihood is the expected occurrence of an

incident
Consequence can be measured as the amount
of money you expect to lose per incident
Risk can be measured as expected dollar loss
per annum

Risk can be measured as expected injuries or

deaths per annum

Question 3

Which of the following statements true according to the

Enhanced Risk Matrix shown below.... (select all
correct answers)
Red =

Unacceptable without risk reduction

Amber = Senior Mgr Approval required
Yellow = Local Mgr Approval required
Green = Acceptable with periodic review

Correct
A production equipment failure with a severity of
Answers: Critical and Likelihood of Occasional has a Risk Level of
6
An accident that is likely to occur and has catastrophic
consequences has a Risk Level of 2
The annual loss expectancy from an accident with
Occasional / Critical can be lowered by reducing the

impact when the incident occurs

The consequences of an incident can be reduced by
effective controls that detect the incident, contain
damage and/or assit the business to recover
An Enhanced Risk Matrix should be developed by
stakeholders and formally agreed by senior
management
An Enhanced Risk Matrix can be used to communicate
the risk tolerance levels
An Enhanced Risk Matrix can be used to determine risks
that cannot be accepted without further treatment that
reduces likelihood, reduces consequences or reduces
both.
The risk matrix can be used to determine risk priority
(relative importance)
