Qualitative risk analysis quickly spots areas that need more attention. It identifies the risks that have high or very high consequences. Qualitative risk analysis uses “constructivist” perspectives or words. Once these risks are identified, they can then be further analyzed using additional qualitative tools.

Qualitative risk analysis focuses on discovering the probability of a risk event occurring and the impact the risk will have if it occurs.

Quantitative risk analysis uses post-positivist statements for expanding knowledge. It uses numbers or statistics.
