Why develop a standard?

• To define good practice in risk management• To support new government and industry

practice• To support legislation requiring risk

management• To standardize terminology• To help integrate risk management practice

Page 6: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

Objectives

• One standard for all risks and organisations• To be understood by non experts• risk is about managing opportunity as well as

loss• To define good risk management practice not

to specify particular risk management tools or techniques

Page 7: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

Risk Management

• The culture, processes and structures that are directed to the effective management of potential opportunities and adverse effects

The Process• The systematic application of management policies

procedures and practices to the tasks of establishing the context identifying, analysing evaluating, treating monitoring and communicating risk

Page 8: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

Risk Management

• proactive• systematic• logical analysis

but• takes account of political realities

CommunicateInternal and External

• Stakeholder views and needs are important• Poor communication is a source of risk• Team approach needed to identify risks• Ownership of risk management process

Page 12: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

ContextFirst Think Strategically

• Organisation’s Mission and Culture• Organisation’s Objectives• Stakeholders• Strengths and Weaknesses,

Opportunities and Threats

Page 13: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

Risk Management Context

• The context of the risk within the organisation• Areas of particular concern• Deciding resources• Deciding scope of risk management activities• Legal Requirements• Factors which affect ability to manage the risk

Page 14: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

Criteria for acceptability

Eg:

• Legal limits

• Company policy and standards

• Cost benefit criteria

• Criteria for unacceptable risk - work must stop

Page 15: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

Structured Approach

• Steps of Project• Activities to be undertaken• Risks of activities• Sources of risk

Page 16: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

Identification

• The risk management context

Identify studies needed,

scope, objectives, resources

generic sources of risk and areas of impact

Identify Risks

What can happen

How it can happen

Page 17: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

Identification

• The most critical step of the process

- risks not identified can not be controlled

• Requires

- a systematic and comprehensive approach

- imagination

- in depth understanding

Page 18: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

Purpose of Identification

• To identify new risks which follow change• As part of process prioritisation• To ensure best procedures and controls used• To make people aware of risks

Page 19: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

Workforce Involvement

• Gives the message that safety matters• Helps people understand hazards• Trains in hazard awareness

Evaluation

• Comparing against criteria• Deciding whether the risk is acceptable• Deciding whether the risk is as low as

reasonably practical• Deciding priorities for action

taking account of wider context of risks

communicating with stakeholders

Page 22: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

Analysis

• Purpose

To separate minor risks from major

To estimate the size of the risk

To provide information for decisions

To provide information on how to reduce risk

Risk analysis should be logical,

systematic and as objective as possible

Page 23: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

Treatment

• Identify treatment options• Evaluate treatment options• Prepare management plan• Implement plan• Define mechanism for monitoring

Page 24: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

Treatment Options

• Avoid - Eliminate• Reduce probability• Reduce Consequences• Transfer or share

- Insurance

- Subcontracting• Retain and plan

RISK CONTROL

Page 25: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

Treatment Plan

• What is to be done?• Who by?• When by?• Where is the budget?• What are potential problems?• How will the plan be monitored?

Page 26: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

Monitor and Review

• Risks

- Regularly check for new risks

- Look for new factors increasing risk

- Changes in priorities

• Systems which control risk

- Audit

- Review

Page 27: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

Implementation

• Support of senior management• Develop organisational policy• Communicate policy

- risk management an integral part of planning

• Manage risks at organisational level• Manage risks at program and team level• Monitor and review

Documentation

Adequate Auditable• Methods• Information Sources• Assumptions• Results• Decisions

Page 30: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

Why document?

• To demonstrate that you have undertaken the process with due diligence

• To communicate with others

- about risk

- about risk control• So you can remember what you did• To provide a trail for audit and review

Page 31: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

What is New?

OLD• Reactive• When it happens• What is wrong• Identify hazards

• Perceived Risks• Standard Controls

NEW• Proactive• Formal Procedure• What could go wrong• Identify hazards and

what might happen• Assessed risks• Develop procedures

Page 32: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

TV Transmission Tower Maintenance

• Context

- Government agency - at present no competition

- about to be outsourced

- key objective is continuity of transmission

- key risk public liability from injury of trespassers

- many transmission towers are in remote areas

Page 33: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

Identification Exercise

• Hazards

- vehicle accidents

- heights

- radiation

- manual handling

Page 34: The Australian/New Zealand Standard on Risk Management By Professor J A Cross

Also Identified

• Vehicle checking procedures not always followed• 4 Wheel drive training courses specified were not

available• People were pressured to drive long distances when tired• Climbing equipment was not regularly maintained -

(person whose job it was had been down sized!)• Performance indicator based on minimising downtime -

normally climb with power on and rely on communication procedures for reducing power when passing transmitter
