R. A. S. A. W.
R. A. S. A. W. stands for Recognize, Alert, Stop, Assess, and Wait. It's a safety process used in workplaces to manage potential hazards. First, you recognize a risky situation or condition. Next, you alert others or alert your team about the hazard. Then, you stop any activity that might be unsafe. After that, you assess the situation to understand the risk fully. Finally, you wait until it's safe to proceed, often after additional information or instructions. This approach helps prevent accidents by ensuring careful, deliberate responses to hazards before continuing work.
