The document proposes a slope risk assessment based on a hazard scope level from 1 to 5 (very low to very high) and qualitative consequence categories from C1 to C5 (negligible to catastrophic). It provides a table to classify hazard levels based on the combination of hazard score and consequences, ranging from extreme to low risk. The levels of action required are defined for each hazard classification, from immediate mitigation for extreme risk to routine procedures and monitoring for low risk. An overall hazard rating is calculated as the hazard score multiplied by the consequences.

Proposed Slope Risk Assessment based on Hazard Scope
The document proposes a slope risk assessment based on a hazard scope level from 1 to 5 (very low to very high) and qualitative consequence categories from C1 to C5 (negligible to catastrophic). It provides a table to classify hazard levels based on the combination of hazard score and consequences, ranging from extreme to low risk. The levels of action required are defined for each hazard classification, from immediate mitigation for extreme risk to routine procedures and monitoring for low risk. An overall hazard rating is calculated as the hazard score multiplied by the consequences.

Level of Action required for different Hazard Classifications
Magnitude Action Required
E Extreme Risk Mitigation required immediately or urgently to safeguard structure and minimize safety risk to personnel H High Risk Mitigation required immediately or relative short period of time; senior management attention needed for intermediate actions M Moderate Risk Mitigate within a reasonable timeline if possible; management responsibility must be specified L Low Risk Low risk; manage by routine procedures and periodic monitoring and inspection in place
HAZARD RATING (HR) = HAZARD SCORE (L) x CONSEQUENCES (C)
