SRM is the identification, analysis and elimination and/or mitigation to an acceptable level of hazards, and the associated risk that threaten the viability of an organization. It is a systematic, explicit, and analytical approach for managing safety risk at all levels and throughout the entire operation or the lifecycle of a system. SRM is a fundamental component of SMS. SRM serves to focus safety efforts on those hazards posing the greatest risks. It weighs the probability and severity implied by the risk against the expected gain of taking the risk and facilitates the balance between assessed risks and viable risk mitigation.
