An Introduction to Risk Management

1
SCOUT SAFE

• An Introduction toRisk Management

2
Objectives

• To have a basic understanding of Risk Management
  and be able to determine the Likelihood,
  Consequence, Frequency and Risk Level of an
  activity.
• Be able to identify the initial Level of risk,
  and be able to modify the activity to reduce the
  risk.
• Be aware of the need to Monitor Review
  Activities for Risk upon change in activity
  conditions

This will be demonstrated via an assessment
3
Why Manage Risk
?
4

• To identify prevent events that could cause
  harm to people, property or assets.

5
Who manages risk
?
6

• Every person involved in the particular activity
  / event in which you are undertaking a Risk
  Management Plan.

RISK
HAZARD

• a Source of Harm with a potential to cause injury
  or loss
• eg Not wearing shoes - Cut Feet
• Gravel tracks - Falling and grazing knees
• Scissors - Cuts lacerations

• is the Chance of something happening that will
  have an impact on an activity

9
RISK HAZARD IDENTIFICATION

• A process of determining WHAT can happen, WHY
  it can happen HOW it can happen

10
ACTIVITY 1 Part 1

• Using the activity sheet
• List at least 5 hazards you can see in the
  following picture.
• Write these in the Hazard column

12
ASSESSING RISK

• The process of determining the level of risk
  through an understanding of the consequences and
  likelihood relating to each hazard.

13
ACTIVITY - Part 2

• From the following chart
• Determine the consequence and likelihood for each
  hazard you have on your list.
• Write the consequence in column A
• Write the likelihood in column B

14
RISK ASSESSMENT PROCESS

• Consequence (outcome or impact) write in Column
  A
• Likelihood (probability) Write in Column B

15
ACTIVITY Part 3

• Using the following matrix, determine the Risk
  Rating of each hazard
• Write your answer in Column marked Risk Rating
• NOTE The RISK RATING for your activity equals
  the highest rating you have given to any Hazard

17
CONTROLS

• The process of how we will manage the identified
  risk in an activity.

HOW TO

• Reduce the Likelihood (training, qualified
  people, conditions)
• Reduce the Consequences (i.e. safety equipment,
  padding)
• Modify the Frequency of exposure

NOTE Not all risks or hazards can be totally
removed.
18
ACTIVITY 1 Part 4

• List some Controls you can put into place that
  could reduce the..
• CONSEQUENCES or
• LIKELIHOOD or
• that can MODIFY THE EXPOSURE
• of the hazard
• Write these in the Controls column

19
ACTIVITY 1 Part 5

• Re-calculate the consequence and likelihood of
  each hazard with the controls in place
• Write new Consequence in New A column
• Write new Likelihood in New B column

20
RISK ASSESSMENT PROCESS

• Consequences (outcome or impact) write in
  Column A
• Likelihood (probability) Write in Column B

21
ACTIVITY 1 Part 6

• Using the following matrix, determine the NEW
  Risk Rating of each hazard
• This will give you the RESIDULE RISK RATING for
  each hazard.
• Write your response in Residual Risk Rating
  column

22

23
RESIDUAL RISK RATING

• The RESIDUAL RISK RATING is the Risk Rating
  that remains AFTER you have put the controls in
  place.
• NOTE The activity must be rated at whatever
  
• the highest Residual Risk Rating is.

24
MONITORING REVIEW

• Whenever ANY aspect of an activity changes, Risk
  Analysis and Assessment MUST be performed.

25
RISK ASSESSMENT CYCLE

• Hazard Identification
• Assess the consequence likelihood
• Determine the level of Risk
• Control the Risk (Reduce if possible)
• Re-Assess
• Monitoring Review (Re-Rate if required)
