The Hazards section of V5 Traceability allows customers to create hazards that reflect the risks associated with handling a particular product or commodity.

These Hazards can then be set up to warn operators of the dangers of a particular task. This allows adequate precautions to be taken to keep all members of the workforce safe.

This page provides a basic overview of the ‘Hazards’ section in Control Center, and will help guide you through the various columns that define its settings. For a more in-depth look at how to set up and use ‘Hazards’, click here.

The ‘Hazards’ section can be found under the ‘Quality’ header of Control Center.

This section is split up into 2 panels:

• Top (yellow) panel: This is where Hazards can be added to the system and defined.
• Bottom (red) panel: This is where commodities can be assigned to the hazard selected in the top panel.
