What We Can Help With: Risk Management
Risk Management
Invest in effective and efficient risk management systems
What is risk? Simply put, it is the chance that any given hazard could cause harm, and how serious that harm could be. Managing and minimising risk is a significant consideration for any organisation—and especially so for some specific industries: agriculture, forestry, construction, manufacturing, and more.
There are a variety of different types of risk, each requiring thought and planning as part of a holistic risk management system. These include:
- health and safety risks,
- employment risks,
- compliance risks,
- operational risks,
- financial risks, and;
- reputational risks.
Identifying and managing these risks is crucial for maintaining a safe and compliant workplace environment, safeguarding employees, and ensuring business continuity and operational efficiency. The controls you implement as part of your risk management may become all that’s standing in the way of serious injury, loss of life, major financial loss, or a reputation-ruining scandal of some sort.
No big deal, right?
There is help available! As organisational development experts, the Emendas team is well-equipped to help you create relevant, tailored, and effective risk management systems. We can also help you to plan and carefully oversee implementation to make sure that there is no gap between policy and practice. Ticking boxes on a checklist is not what’s going to serve your business and keep your people, your profits, and your reputation safe. Integrated management systems that take into account the reality of what you do and how you do it will. Let us help you to create something that works for you!
Capability uplift is a priority for us here at Emendas. Upskilling your people in risk management contributes to self-sustainability in your business, preserves organisational IP, and ensures you’re creating processes that are relevant and effective—because they’re formed by people who know “how we do things around here.” Building the capability to manage risk well within your organisation is a valuable resource for the future. Having internal expertise that can be passed down, rather than requiring regular external training, is future-proofing.
