How are unsafe or hazardous conditions defined in the ERC Property Assessment Report?

In the context of the ERC Property Assessment Report, unsafe or hazardous conditions are primarily defined as specific safety defects that are noted as dangerous. The intent of this definition is that it focuses on identifiable safety issues that pose an immediate risk to individuals within the environment being assessed. This approach does not rely solely on visual inspections, as visual assessments may not capture every hazard present, nor do they emphasize potential future hazards or define geographic limitations such as a specific radius from the property.

By concentrating on concrete safety defects, the assessment ensures a more accurate identification of hazards that could lead to injuries or other serious consequences, and it allows for clear guidance on the remedial actions that may be necessary to mitigate these risks effectively. This specificity helps organizations prioritize safety based on actual risks present at the property rather than hypothetical situations or broad environmental contexts.
