Learn in the textbookThe Risk Assessment Process
DefinitionRisk evaluation (リスク評価) is the step that compares the risk levels found in analysis with the risk criteria to decide whether each risk needs treatment and in what order.
ExplanationRisk criteria (リスク基準) are the yardstick showing, for example, how much risk is acceptable, and the organization sets them before evaluation begins. The result of the evaluation becomes the input to the next step, risk treatment.
AnalogyIt is like comparing test scores with the passing mark to decide which subjects need extra lessons and which to start with.
Memory hookEvaluation shares its root with value. Link it to the step where you hold each risk up to a yardstick and decide what it is worth.
