Abstract
The paper deals with the issue of selecting parameters that secure the construction of a risk matrix. Main aspects affecting the error of presentation of risk matrix results are identified. The construction of a risk matrix with minimum error for given conditions is shown by means of a particular example. Directions for further research are outlined.
