What is ''What-If?''
The "What-If?" Methodology is a workshop-based process hazard analysis technique that explores the potential repercussions of anticipated process disturbances and the protective measures in place to mitigate associated risks. This form of hazard analysis relies on the collective expertise of workshop teams to comprehensively capture foreseeable scenarios.
The "What-If?" process invites brainstorming of potential deviations, circumstances, or factors that could contribute to hazardous scenarios. By asking "What if? questions, organisations can uncover and identify previously unrecognised hazards, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of risks.
This methodology promotes a safety-conscious organisational culture by nurturing active participation across all employee tiers and adopting a shared responsibility for safety.
