Hazard Identification (HAZID)

Hazard Identification (HAZID) is a systematic process used to recognize potential risks or dangers that could cause harm, damage, or disruption in a particular activity or environment. It involves examining a project, operation, or system to find possible hazards—things like equipment failures, human errors, or environmental factors—that could lead to accidents or losses. By identifying these hazards early, organizations can assess their severity and implement measures to prevent or minimize their impact, ensuring safety and efficiency in their operations.
