Through its work and initiatives, the Risk Assessment Committee pursues four distinct goals:

1 Educate executives, the business community, and occupational safety and health professionals on the value of the risk assessment approach and ways to successfully implement risk assessment.

2 Improve risk‐related training and education for occupational safety and health professionals so they can better understand the risk‐based decision‐making process and improve core risk assessment competencies.

3 Provide a platform for the occupational safety community to contribute to the development of new evidence‐based risk‐related policies, processes, and solutions. We seek ways to leverage the expertise of the occupational safety and health community in identifying and quantifying risk, advance risk‐related regulatory and legislative initiatives related to the management of risks, and identify relevant research related to understanding risks.

4 Provide a center of excellence for risk‐related information and tools relevant to occupational safety and health professionals This involves collecting and disseminating relevant risk‐related research, collaborating with the insurance, accounting, and financial risk management industries to promote an exchange of ideas, accessing real‐world practical experiences and applications, and facilitating outreach and collaboration with global nongovernmental organizations and academia.
