Risk Management is part of the operational element in an organization to manage their directives towards risks surrounding them. It assists the organization to identify, evaluate and prioritize the risks through risk analysis. The main objective of this work is to identify risk from hazards involved in the work place, so that control measures can be put in place to avoid or minimise the harm it can cause. The risks include hazards from radiation, chemical, biological, physical as well as ergonomic factors. Hazard identification was carried out at two radiation facilities in Malaysian Nuclear Agency that involved radiation safety. ALURTRON and MINTec-Sinagama provide radiation services to commercial industries as well as for R&D purposes. In this paper, every section in risk analysis and hazard identification are discussed.
