Programme Details
Assessing risk in engineering, work and life
By The Open University
About the programme
Risk is something that must be taken into account at all times when practising as an engineer. We accept risk as part of everyday life so there is a need to balance the risks of an activity against the benefits that it brings. This free course, Assessing risk in engineering, work and life, investigates how we can manage risks at work, in the home and in the wider community. Risk is tied in with accidents so it is vital to understand how accidents arise, how likely they are to occur and how they can be prevented. These subjects are all covered in this course.
