Abstract
This datasheet describes a framework for risk based decision making in the field of engineering. The framework is generic (i.e. in principle context independent) but also represents an integral approach. Explicit consideration is given to the interaction between all relevant agents including technical systems, nature, humans and organizations in the assessment of the risks associated with any considered system.
The datasheet provides decision support for risk and safety management at strategic, normative and operational levels. The approach advocated is new in the sense that it emphasizes the need for a generic, scientifically based methodology with a holistic perspective and furthermore describes the principles on how to do it.
