“…Yang and Utne., (2022) have employed a risk matrix for the risk assessment of autonomous marine systems, without providing the rationale behind the risk matrix ratings. Sun et al, (2018) proposed a method to establish acceptable societal risks in connection to the Safety Level Approach by IMO, which is a statistical ship-level approach. In the Risk Based Assessment Tool (RBAT), a modified HAZID approach with a risk matrix is employed (EMSA, 2021).…”

The safety assurance of autonomous ship systems is anticipated to present various challenges in the near future, necessitating the establishment of unambiguous procedures and references to facilitate the risk-based design of future ship systems. The International Maritime Organization's (IMO) guidelines, as outlined in the current version of the Formal Safety Assessment (FSA), Goal-Based Standards, and the rules from classification societies lack in detail for the risk-based design of autonomous ship systems. In the meantime, the aviation industry's regulations include more structured techniques for aircraft systems engineering, including a risk matrix that is employed as a benchmark to set the system safety objectives throughout various stages of system design. Consequently, this research suggests a methodology to establish target safety levels for the safety assurance of future ship systems, guided by aviation standards, to support the development of risk-based procedures and regulations that ensure the design of safe autonomous ship systems.

The utilization of risk acceptance criteria (RAC) can help a business to judge whether the risk level concerning any process involved in its working environment is acceptable or not, especially when the risk has a significant societal impact. Thus, the main intention of this study is to make known the current state-of-the-art concerning RACs and to propose new interpretations of it by surveying, for first time, the scientific literature about the RACs associated with the occupational health and safety (OHS) risk-assessment methodologies (RAA). A second objective of this work is the attainment of a prediction for the evolution of the quantity of the publications concerning OHS-RACs, and a third one is the derivation of an algorithm (via a flow-chart) in order to illustrate the process of the formation of new OHS-RACs. The work consists of two parts, (a) exploring and presenting methods of developing RACs in OHS; (b) classifying, analyzing, and benchmarking relevant published scientific articles by surveying the Scopus data base with proper search-hints, through a time interval of 20 years (January2000–December 2019). The review has defined a plethora of RAC-papers with reference to OHS, which is a remarkable percentage in comparison with the other fields aggregated, and this outcome proves that the issue of utilizing RACs is fundamental for the field of OHS. Additionally, it has been deduced that, day after day, there is an increasing tendency for the scientific community to develop and use RACs in the field of occupational safety, as this is evident by their frequent reference to the risk analysis and assessment (RAA) process. Our specific research methodology has been compatible with the PRISMA protocol. A prediction for the evolution of the quantity of the OHS-RAC publications is also given by confirming the Poisson stochastic process. Finally, we propose a generic guideline framework that can contribute to the establishment of new empirically-generated OHS-RACs.
