Preferred term

hazard vulnerability analysis  

Definition

  • The overarching goal following a crisis is to minimize its impact on an organization and return the organization to its pre-event status as quickly as possible. The hazard vulnerability analysis (HVA) is a systematic approach to thoroughly examining a hazard, the probability of a hazard becoming an event, and the resultant risks to the organization in question.
