Risk Assessments

On this page you manage the risk assessments that can be applied to work requested, assigning a risk color (red, amber, or green) and risk control actions to specifics tasks or to the work request generally. Risk assessments can be applied based on automated rules, and you can configure allowable actions based on the risk color (allow work order start, allow work order start with approval, and so on) on the Risk Assessment Configuration page.

The following information displays in a smart table:

• Risk assessment: The name of the risk assessment

• Assessment number: The number identifier for the risk assessment

• Assessment description

• Assessment type: Indicates whether the risk assessment is Task specific (applied to specific tasks within a work order) or Generic (applied to the work order as a whole)

• Status: Indicates whether the risk assessment is active or inactive

• Initial risk: The risk color (red, amber, or green) before control actions are taken to mitigate risk

• Residual risk: The risk color (red, amber, or green) indicating the risk remaining after control actions are taken to mitigate risk
