  Key Concepts: 
  Initial risk assessment is a process used in SAP EHS Management to identify and assess potential risks associated with a particular activity or operation. It is used to determine the likelihood of an incident occurring and the potential consequences of such an incident. The assessment is based on the analysis of available data, such as safety records, environmental conditions, and other relevant information. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The initial risk assessment process begins with the identification of potential risks associated with a particular activity or operation. This can be done by analyzing safety records, environmental conditions, and other relevant information. Once the risks have been identified, they should be assessed in terms of their likelihood and potential consequences. The results of the assessment should then be used to develop appropriate safety measures and procedures to reduce or eliminate the identified risks. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When conducting an initial risk assessment, it is important to consider all potential risks associated with an activity or operation. It is also important to consider the potential consequences of each risk and how they could affect the overall safety of the operation. Additionally, it is important to consider any existing safety measures that may already be in place and how they could be improved upon.
