What is the difference between hazard and risk in the workplace?

The danger is a way to be harmful:

  • of a substance, for example an acid;
  • of a machine, for example a saw;
  • of a work situation, for example a room filled with oil drums;
  • of a way of behaving, such as walking on a tight rope.


The risk, however, comes at the same time when we have a danger and an exposed worker.
