Description
Introduction
Hello, everyone, and welcome to the Safety Artisan, where you will find professional, pragmatic, and impartial safety training resources and videos. I’m Simon, your host, and I’m recording this on the 13th of April 2020. And given the circumstances when I record this, I hope this finds you all well.
System Hazard Analysis Task 205
Let's get on to our topic for today, which is System Hazard Analysis. Now, system hazard analysis is, as you may know, is Task 205 in the Mil. Standard 882E system safety standard.
Topics for this Session
In this session, we will cover purpose, task description, reporting, contracting, and some commentary – although I'll be making commentary all the way through. Going to the back to the top, the yellow highlighting with this and with task 204, I'm using the yellow highlighting to indicate differences between 205 and 204 because they are superficially quite similar. And then I'm using underlining to emphasize those things that I want to really bring to your attention and emphasize.
Within task 205, purpose. We've got four purposes for this one. Verify sub system compliance and recommend necessary actions – fourth one there. And then in the middle of the sandwich, we've got the identification of hazards, both between the subsystem interfaces and faults from the subsystem propagating upwards to the overall system and identifying hazards in the integrated system design. So, it's quite different emphasis to 204, which was really thinking about subsystems in isolation.
We’ve got five slides of task description, a couple on reporting, one on contracting – nothing new there – and several commentaries.

Hi, I'm Simon Di Nucci, and I have spent 25+ years as a system safety engineer. I have always sought to pass on my expertise to others.
I was part of the team that taught the official safety engineering courses to all UK Ministry of Defence staff. I then went on to create bespoke safety courses for several different clients, including the UK Military Aviation Authority. I'm now teaching safety online, to anyone who wants to do Safety, Just Right.
To do this, I have drawn on my wide and deep experience in safety consulting and engineering. Much of my career has been working for governments or consulting to the public sector on Australian, UK, US, and European programs.
I am a Fellow of Engineers Australia (FIE(Aust)) and on the National Engineering Register, so studying my courses will count for EA CPD. I have an MSc in Safety-Critical Systems Engineering.
