This paper gives an overview of risk criteria used in the nuclear industry, European railway and offshore oil and gas industries. A survey of risk criteria has been made within a Nordic project dealing with the use of probabihstic safety criteria for nuclear power plants, see Hohnberg Knochenhauer (2006 and 2008).
