I. Severity rating in the scale of Low-L, Medium-M & High-H.
II. Likelihood rating in the scale of Low-L, Medium-M & High-H.
d) In order to get the value of significant risk and the Risk Priority No; determine the value of RPN
from the risk matrix in the scale of 1-5. If the value of RPN or Risk Level is 3 or more than 3, then
consider it as significant.
e) Results of identification of hazards, risk assessments and determined control shall be kept up to date
