Risk management also emphasises on the identification
In this essay I will be looking at and explain the potential hazards in a residential care home for the elderly. Despite the elderly being vulnerable and fragile it is also important to look out for potential hazards which can cause harm to the elderly or to the staff who are working there. I will be looking at the range of hazards present in different categories for example in the physical environment, working conditions, substances etc… According to the Canadian centre for occupational health
has risk which should be managed very carefully. Risk identification, risk estimation and risk evaluation is done in order to avoid, monitor and manage risks and its Impact. To achieve a quality product risk mitigation, monitoring, and management is performed. Keywords: Risk Mitigation; Risk Monitoring; Risk Management. 1. Introduction Risk is an assumption

The Hazard Assessment method used in the paper was the globally acknowledged PEC and PNEC approaches according to Basietto et al., 1990. PEC stands for the acronym of Predicted Environmental Concentration whereas the PNEC stands for Predicted No Effect Concentration. This method uses the ratio proportion of PEC:PNEC to compute the Hazard Quotient (HQ) or Risk Quotient (RQ) of the subjected hazards. The PEC is basically a measure of
