In the Risk Management cycle, which step comes after 'Assess Hazards'?

• A. Develop Controls and Make Decisions
• B. Implement Controls
• C. Supervise and Evaluate
• D. Identify Hazards

Answer: (A)

After assessing hazards, the next step is to develop controls and make decisions about how to manage the risk. This means selecting protective measures, weighing their effectiveness against feasibility and cost, and planning how those controls will be put into place. The goal is to translate the risk insights into concrete actions that reduce risk to an acceptable level. Once controls are developed and decisions are made, you move on to implementing them, then supervising and evaluating to ensure they work and making adjustments as needed. The other steps belong earlier or later in the cycle: identifying hazards happens first, implementing controls follows the decision phase, and supervising and evaluating comes after implementation.
