Applying A Hazard Type

Once a Hazard Type has been created in Concept Evolution, it may be assigned to a variety of entities in the system to show where the Hazard exists. For example, a 'Risk of Falling' Hazard may be required where the Location is the roof of a Building; Electrical Hazard may be added to Assets that must be worked on whilst still live.

Hazard Types are assigned to the required entities from within the entity itself.
