Why this presentation?India with a population of more than 1.22 billion scattered in 28 states and 7 union territories provide a unique ground for

studying population programs management .

To provide any kind of service to its citizens, it needs a huge investment and a large manpower for its implementation.

OBJECTIVES

WHAT IS RISK?

“Something with the potential to cause harm”

WHAT IS RISK?

RISK:- The probability of harmful consequences, or expected losses (deaths, injuries, property, livelihood, economic activity disrupted or environment damaged) resulting from interactions between natural or human-induced hazards and vulnerabilities.

Risk is proportional to Hazard x Vulnerability / Level of Preparedness.

R = H x V RISK= Cross product of Hazard and Vulnerability.

HAZARD = The probability of an adverse outcome.

VULNERABILITY= The conditions determined by physical, social, economic and environmental factors or processes, which increase the susceptibility of a community to the impact of hazards.

NOW WHAT TO DONEXT?

ASSESSMENT OF RISK

RISK ASSESSMENT:- It is a process of estimating the magnitude of the risk and deciding if the risk is tolerable or acceptable. A tolerable RISK may not always be acceptable.

RISK ASSESSMENTIt is a systematic procedure for describing and quantifying the risk associated with hazardous substance, process, action or event. It involves:

# Identification of hazard

# Quantification of hazard

# Quantification of probability of occurrence of hazard

# Estimation of risk

RISK ASSESSMENT

What Risk Analysis Can Do?

Helps in:-# Forecasting any unwanted situation.

# Estimating damage potential of such situation. # Decision making to control such situation.

# Evaluating effectiveness of control measures.
