Likelihood
Calculation of Risk
A method is shown below for calculating the Risk, given the estimate Likelihood of occurrence (L), Severity (S).
Risk Factor (RF) = Likelihood (L) X Severity (S)
Where:
a - L = Likelihood of fire occurrence i.e. probability of the event occurring because of the risk is measured on the likelihood of happening. (1, 2, 3, 4,
5) b - S = The Severity (Outcome) are ranked on a scale from catastrophe to minor interruption. (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
Residual Risk RR = is the amount of risk associated with an activity remaining after risks have been reduced by control measures.
