National Risk Assessment Week

October, 2026

National Risk Assessment Week was created from a simple but urgent truth: risk assessments are not a one-time event. Risk Assessments are the foundation of resiliency, longevity and personal safety.

From the first blueprint to renovations and upgrades, a building is never truly finished being evaluated. They are continuously assessed, consistently maintained, and never taken for granted. Join us in making risk assessment a shared professional standard - across every trade, every project, every year.

Through national events, we bring awareness, alignment, and action… highlighting the importance of assessment, design, installation, and maintenance while celebrating the professionals who make safety possible every day.
