Nuclear risk assessment involves evaluating the potential dangers associated with nuclear materials, facilities, and activities. It considers factors like the likelihood of accidents, natural disasters impacting nuclear sites, and security threats such as sabotage or terrorism. The goal is to identify vulnerabilities, estimate possible impacts, and implement measures to prevent or mitigate incidents. This process ensures safety for workers, the public, and the environment by systematically analyzing risks and developing strategies to manage them effectively.
