What do we expect from the Risk Management Process?

Risk management should: create value, and:
▪ Be an integral part of organizational processes;
▪ Be part of decision making explicitly address uncertainty and assumptions;
▪ Be systematic and structured, be based on the best available information;
▪ Be tailorable, and take into account human factors;
▪ Be transparent and inclusive, be dynamic, iterative and responsive to change;
▪ Be capable of continual improvement and enhancement.

By “putting a value” on the consequences of hazards, the safety management process provides the organization with a principled basis for safety risk decisions and the subsequent allocation of organizational resources to contain the damaging potential of hazards.

Reaching a Level of Maturity

Under mature safety management practices, hazard identification is a continuous, ongoing, daily activity. It never stops or rests. It is an integral part of the organizational processes aimed at delivering the services that the organization is in business to deliver.
It is a fact that mitigation strategies can never completely mitigate safety risks. It must be accepted that a residual safety risk will always exist, and the organization must ensure that residual safety risks are also under control.
