Risk Estimation and Risk Reduction in accordance with EN ISO 14121 and EN ISO 12100


The following diagram identifies the individual elements examined in some standards. It's worth noting that some aspects overlap between the standards. Some diagrams are also repeated within the standards, at least as extracts.
Together these standards provide a good selection of the hazards, risk factors and design principles that need to be considered.
Elements within the diagram that have a dark yellow background are the areas covered by the user standards EN ISO 13849-1 and EN/IEC 62061 and are examined there in greater detail.
Where possible the diagram refers to the corresponding sections dealing with the relevant aspect within the standards. Some points can certainly be found in several standards, but the level of detail generally varies.
