Risk Assessment Table

For each risk, likelihood and impact scores (inherent risk score) were determined; the product of both determines the total inherent risk score. For each risk, at least 1 mitigation measure was proposed. Each mitigation measure may influence the residual risk score to a different degree. For example, the total residual risk scores for mitigation 1A and 1F are 5 and 10, respectively, meaning that measure 1A is thought to be more effective at reducing risk 1 (development of severe disease) than 1F.
