Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any
patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on
the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to the WTO principles in the Technical Barriers
to Trade (TBT) see the following URL: Foreword - Supplementary information

Introduction
Products need to be safely constructed, produced, and maintained covering a reasonable foreseeable
misuse/intended use evaluated by the manufacturer. Any areas of risk have to be defined and precautions
taken. Nevertheless, the use of the equipment or activities with this equipment on sports or playgrounds
will create a residual risk related to the individual user. This has to be evaluated by a risk assessment
and reduced to an acceptable or tolerable risk of performance. The result of this evaluation may deviate
by age and social grouping.

TECHNICAL REPORT ISO/TR 20183:2015(E)
Sports and other recreational facilities and equipment —
Injury and safety definitions and thresholds — Guidelines
for their inclusion in standards
1 Scope
This Technical Report provides standards writers with guidelines for the inclusion of injury and safety
definitions and thresholds to be applied in the development of ISO/TC 83 standards. It is intended to
contribute to harmonization of the language and understanding safety of products/procedures as well
as to comply with Directive 2001/95/EC on general product safety requirements.
2 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
2.1
safe
state of being protected from recognized hazards that are likely to cause harm
2.2
safety
freedom from unacceptable risk, but not safe (2.1)
Note 1 to entry: Safety is achieved by reducing risk to a tolerable level.
Note 2 to entry: There is no complete absence of risk. In turn, there is no product or system that is without some
risk which shall be reduced to a tolerable risk (2.8).
2.3
risk
combination of the probability of occurrence of harm and the severity of that harm
Note 1 to entry: The probability of occurrence includes the exposure to a hazardous situation (2.7), the occurrence
of a hazardous event (2.6), and the possibility to limit the harm.
2.4
harm
injury or damage to the health of people or damage to property or the environment
2.5
hazard
potential source of harm (2.4)
2.6
hazardous event
event to result in harm (2.4)
2.7
hazardous situation
circumstances in which people, property or the environment are exposed to one or more hazards

2.8
tolerable risk
acceptable risk
risk (2.3) which is acceptable in a given context based on the current values of society
Note 1 to entry: The terms “acceptable risk” and “tolerable risk” are synonymous.
2.9
risk reduction measure
protective measure
any action or means of eliminating hazards (2.5) or reducing risk (2.3)
Note 1 to entry: Risk reduction measures or protective measure could include, but are not limited to, eliminating
hazards, guarding against hazards, use of protective devices (2.22), and reducing the likelihood of hazardous
events (2.6).
2.10
residual risk
remaining risk (2.3) after risk reduction measures or protective measures (2.9) have been taken
Note 1 to entry: Following risk reduction measures, the residual risk should be less than tolerable risk (2.8), thus
providing safety (2.2).
2.11
risk analysis
systematic use of available information to identify hazards (2.5) and to eliminate risk (2.3)
2.12
risk evaluation
procedure based on the risk analysis (2.11) to determine whether a tolerable risk (2.8) has been achieved
2.13
risk assessment
overall process comprising a risk analysis (2.11) and risk evaluation (2.12
