They may sound alike, but inherent risk and initial risk can have different meanings in risk assessment.
🔹 Inherent Risk – The level of risk present before considering any controls.
🔹 Initial Risk – The risk level identified at the beginning of the assessment, based on the conditions being evaluated.
Understanding these terms helps HSE professionals assess hazards consistently and select appropriate control measures.
