Practice objective / multiple choice question 13 from the 2019 City Guilds Model Questions Vol1 Engineering examination.
In a workshop three hazards have been identified: (i) Electric shock - probability of occurrence per month = 0.02, severity = 8; (ii) Fire - probability per month = 0.01, severity = 9; (iii) Chemical spill - probability per month = 0.03, severity = 6. Risk rating for each hazard is defined as \(R = \text{probability}\times\text{severity}\).\n(a) Compute the individual risk ratings, the total risk score for the workshop, and identify which hazard requires the highest‑priority control.\n(b) If a control measure reduces the probability of fire by 60 %, recalculate the total risk score.
