| acceptable risk level Level of risk judged to be outweighed by corresponding benefits or one that is of such a degree that it is considered to pose minimal potential for adverse effects | مستوى مخاطرة مقبول |
| cancer risk The probability that exposure to some agent or substance will adversely transform cells to replicate and form a malignant tumor | التعرض للإصابة بالسرطان |
| chemical risk Probability of harm to human health, property or the environment posed by contact with any substance of a defined molecular composition | خطورة كيميائية |
| environmental risk Likelihood, or probability, of injury, disease, or death resulting from exposure to a potential environmental hazard | خطورة على البيئة |
| environmental risk assessment Qualitative and quantitative evaluation of the risk posed to the environment by the actual or potential presence and/or use of specific pollutants | تقييم المخاطر البيئية |
| high risk of extinction | تهديد قوي بالإنقراض |
| high risk of extinction | في حالة خطر شديد بالإندراس |
| high risk of extinction | خطر بالغ يهدد بالإنقراض |
| human-caused risk scaling factor | دليل خطر الحريق بسبب الإنسان |
| lightning risk scaling factor | مقياس مخاطر الحريق البرقي المحتملة |
| lower risk | خطر خفيف |
| lower risk species Animals, birds, fish, plants or other living organisms that have been deemed as not being in danger of extinction; IUCN | أنواع غير معرضة لمخاطر عالية |
| major risk The high probability that a given hazard or situation will yield a significant amount of lives lost, persons injured, damage to property , disruption of economic activity or harm to the environment; or any product of the probability of occurrence and the expected magnitude of damage beyond a maximum acceptable level | مخاطر كبرى |
| major risk installation Installations whose functioning involves the possibility of major hazards such as chemical plants, nuclear, coal and oil power production plants, etc. | تجهيزات عالية الخطر |
| natural risk Probability of harm to human health, property or the environment posed by any aspect of the physical world other than human activity | مخاطر طبيعية |
| natural risk analysis Analysis of the probability of occurrence, within a specific period of time in a given area, of a potentially damaging phenomenon of nature | تحليل المخاطر الطبيعية |
| natural risks prevention Precautionary measures, actions or installations implemented to avert the probability of harm to humans, property or natural resources posed by conditions or events in the environment neither initiated nor formed by human activity | الوقاية من المخاطر الطبيعية |
| nuclear risk A risk connected to the functioning of nuclear power plants, by the storage or transportation of radioactive materials and involving the release of potentially dangerous levels of radioactive materials into the environment | خطر نووي |
| pollution risk Probability of harm to human health, property or the environment posed by the introduction of an undesirable substance into the ecosystem | خطورة محتملة من التلوث |
| residual risk Remaining potential for harm to persons, property or the environment following all possible efforts to reduce predictable hazards | بقايا الخطر |
| risk analysis Technique used to determine the likelihood or chance of hazardous events occurring (such as release of a certain quantity of a toxic gas) and the likely consequences. Originally developed for use in nuclear and chemical industry where certain possible events, of low probability, could have extremely serious results. Attempts are being made to use concepts from probabilistic risk analysis to characterise environmental impacts, whose occurrence and nature are not easy to predict with any degree of accuracy | تحليل المخاطر |
| risk assessment The qualitative and quantitative evaluation performed in an effort to define the risk posed to human health and/or the environment by an action or by the presence or use of a specific substance or pollutant | تقييم المخاطر |
| risk-benefit analysis A systematic process of evaluating and assessing the hazards of loss versus the possibility of financial gain or profit | تحليل المخاطر والفوائد |
| risk communication The exchange of information about health or environmental risks among risk assessors and managers, the general public, news media, interest groups, etc. | الاتصالات المتعلقة بالمخاطر |
| risk exposure The situation or set of circumstances where the probability of harm to an area or its population increases beyond a normal level | التعرض للمخاطر |
| risk exposure plan A scheme or method of acting that takes effect if the probability of harm to an area or its population increases beyond a normal level | خطة التعرض للمخاطر |
| risk management The process of evaluating and selecting alternative regulatory and non-regulatory responses to prepare for the probability of an accidental occurrence and its expected magnitude of damage, including the consideration of legal, economic and behavioral factors | إدارة المخاطر |
| risk perception A subjective appreciation by individuals which will more often than not bear little relation to the statistical probability of damage or injury | تقدير المخاطر |
| risk reduction Any act, instance or process lowering the probability that harm will come to an area or its population as the result of some hazard | تقليص المخاطر |
