Biohazard perception is a process in which the sense organs interact with microorganisms that can cause tissue or multi-organic damage. The risk of infection by biological agents is recognized as one of the most important, especially in nursing professionals. Objective: To identify the perception of nursing personnel on biological risk, in the Vicente Corral Moscoso Hospital, Cuenca-Ecuador. Methodology: Cross-sectional, descriptive observational research with a quantitative approach. The sample was 164 nurses. A questionnaire validated in Cuba was used for data collection, and the processing and analysis of the results was carried out in the SPSS v25 programme. Results: 59% were between 20 and 30 years old, 92% were female, 50% were single and 44% were nursing professionals. In relation to the individual, 60% have received little training on biological risk, 59% have received protective measures. In the nature of the risks, 92% do consider the consequences of biological risks, 79% report little information on accidents and incidents in the institution. In risk management, 68 per cent report that few managers and supervisors are aware of current biosecurity resolutions. Conclusion: Nurses have received little biohazard training, are unaware of some of the protective measures and accidents and incidents in the facility. Few administrators and supervisors are trained in bio-safety.

Risk Management Process

Abstract The exploration and production of hydrocarbons is undeniably a high-risk venture. Uncertainties are in every activity, from the exploration phase up to facilities construction and plants operation. To allow decision makers understanding the uncertainty associated with the decisions they were asked to face, in the 70ies of the past century, when the oil shockwaves upset the entire business world (Bood & Postma, 1997), it was introduced the use of scenario analysis. Since then, stochastic analyses, such as Monte Carlo simulations, started permeating the oil & gas world. Yet, as Lewis et al. (2004) highlighted, despite the benefit greatly outweighs the effort generally required to perform these analyses, managers not seldom refrained themselves from using these tools to support their decision-making processes. And this, as highlighted by Judah (2016), despite risk mitigation is the very core of the oil & gas business as risks at stake are many, namely: drilling risk, subsurface risk, cost & schedule risk, procurement risk, performance risk, health, safety, and environment (HSE) risk, geopolitical risk, and price risk. Today, the energy transition is imposing new challenges to the oil & gas sector. Even amongst those companies that have embraced (quantitative) structured approaches to support their investment decisions, there is another challenge to face: the integration of all risks in one approach capable of capturing the overall complexity of oil & gas projects and highlighting the effects of variations of both endogenous and exogenous risks on the overall profitability of the opportunity at stake (or the portfolio of opportunities). Risks are typically assessed separately by each function with different quantitative approaches that leave grey zones of interpretation where inter-functional risks can grow and create decisional inefficiencies. Aware of this, Eni integrated risk management, started last year a project aimed at enhancing the project risk management process. The innovative approach followed leverages on artificial logic and allows to consider the full life cycle of an investment proposal. In line with the evolution of company's mission and vision, the aim was to assess the project risk in a more comprehensive way by considering endogenous risks (such as permits, drilling, engineering, procurement, construction) jointly with exogenous ones (such as climate change, cyber security, credit, and country). The manuscript explains the methodology used, the results achieved, and the expected benefit for the company in adopting the innovative approach to risk engineering in supporting investments decisions.
