“…Previous studies have developed and highlighted different risk assessment models by utilizing many risk assessment techniques to solve specific problems pertaining to the risk of handling cargo at terminal operations [5,[9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. However, no common risk assessment framework can be implemented for all types of risks.…”

Risk management provides an effective method for ensuring safety and preventing accidents towards achieving port sustainability. This article describes a study of the implementation of a risk management framework for handling of cargo at ports. To achieve the study’s objectives, data was collected using a questionnaire and disseminated to port experts at three major ports in Malaysia. The collected data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software and calculated using risk matrix calculations. Based on the calculations, for port A and port B, 42% of risk falls under risk category II and 58% under risk category III. Meanwhile, for Port C, 31% under risk category II and 69% under risk category III. Risk reduction measures should be implemented within a defined period of time (12 months). Additional risk control measures were proposed accordingly. The novelty of the study was an improvement of risk management framework. The risk management framework was proposed with an introduction of risk frequency into risk rating calculation, risk criteria parameter for risk likelihood and risk severity, new risk matrix dimension and instruments to evaluate the existing control measure factor and new risk categories with five levels which provide more details and sustainable risk assessment method.

The aim of this study is to assess the seaport operational safety of Apapa port Lagos. Primary data were collected using survey for the analysis. The study utilized Logit model and Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis to analyse the data collected from` the seaport. In running the analysis, SPSS software version 24.0 was used to analyse the data. The result from the Logit model shows that there is a high significant relationship between the dependent and independent variables tested in the study. This means that there is need for improvement in the area of safety at the port. Furthermore, the multi-criteria decision analysis result also shows various sections and their corresponding weights and ranks with a level of improvement that will be help to step up or enhance the safety variables during port operation. The study recommends that the seaport should be carrying out constant safety study from time to time to increase the safety and security levels of the seaport as recommended by the IMO
