Activity Hazard Analysis (AHA)

Activity/Work Task: MOBILIZATION Overall Risk Assessment Code (RAC) (Use highest code) L
Project Location: Camp Zama Risk Assessment Code (RAC) Matrix

Notes: Field Notes, Review comments, etc. Negligible M L L L L
Step 1: Review each "Hazard" with identified safety "Controls" and determine RAC (See above)
"Probability" is the likelihood to cause an incident, near miss, or accident and identified as:
Frequent, Likely, Occasional, Seldom or Unlikely. RAC Chart
"Severity" is the outcome/degree if an incident, near miss, or did occur and identified as: E = Extremely High-Risk
Catastrophic, Critical, Marginal, or Negligible H = High Risk
Step 2: Identify the RAC (Probability/Severity) as E, H, or L for each "Hazard" on AHA. Annotate M = Moderate Risk
the overall highest RAC at the top of AHA L = Low Risk
