    A weak and a strong notion of multivariate hazard rate orders are introduced and studied. Relationships of the new orders to other common stochastic orders are described. Useful preservation properties of these orders are proven and a sample of examples which illustrate the theory is given. Some applications of the new orders in reliability theory and in actuarial science are described.
