Risk Assessments

 

Sometimes, clients ask us to carry out independent, detailed risk assessments and report to senior management or the board. Our approach is based on AS/NZS ISO 31000: 2009 Risk management – Principles and guidelines but also uses other relevant risk identification and risk analysis tools.

 

We are often asked for electronic copy of our risk assessment form. This can be downloaded here in PDF format. Please note this is the simple version that has not be calibrated for any specific organisation and that does not enable linking of risks to objectives. We are happy to discuss training and customisation of the form.

 

Assessments we have carried out have been very varied and include:

  • fire and explosion risks associated with storage of aerosols in warehouses and distribution centres

  • risks associated with work on a remote sub-tropical island

  • a specific threat to a key infrastructural asset

  • insurable risks to gas and water networks

  • strategic risks in a business with farming, viticulture and property assets.

We often find that a good qualitative risk analysis provides adequate data for business risk management decisions. However, we can help if a quantitative risk assessment is also needed.

 

We have also developed a database of global risks and generic major risks that takes account of international risk assessment reports and that we use to help inform our risk assessments.
