Man-Made Hazards
Man-made hazards are dangerous situations or conditions created by human activity. These can include industrial accidents, chemical spills, nuclear incidents, and terrorist attacks. Unlike natural disasters, which occur from environmental processes, man-made hazards are often the result of negligence, poor safety practices, or deliberate actions. They can lead to serious harm to people, property, and the environment, creating emergencies that require immediate response and management. Understanding these hazards is essential for improving safety regulations, emergency preparedness, and community resilience.
