Employing the Accident Frequency-Severity Chart.
Priest, Simon
Journal of Adventure Education and Outdoor Leadership, v13 n1 p22-24 Spr 1996
The Accident Frequency-Severity Chart (AFSC) is a tool for correctly assessing and appropriately coping with risks inherent in adventure programs. The AFSC helps to measure risk frequency (likelihood of loss) and severity (amount of loss) of specific outdoor activities. The AFSC can also be used to compare safety records of outdoor activities and to perform in-house assessments. (LP)
