Risk Management

ISO 31000

ISO 31000 is an international risk management methodology that includes a set of guidelines, a structure and mechanism for risk assessment which helps organisations take a pragmatic approach to the threats they face.ISO 31000 helps organizations develop, implement and continually improve a framework aimed at integrating risk management strategies into the overall business structure including decision-making.

The standard provides a uniform vocabulary and approach to discussion of risk management concepts. It provides standards and recommendations that can help you carry out a critical review of the risk management process for your organization.

DEFINITION OF RISK

ISO 31000:2018 defines risk as to the “effect of uncertainty on objectives”.It focuses on any divergence (positive, negative, or both) from the planned outcomes that may pose opportunities and risks, which may lead. At the same time, the definition of risk management is “coordinated risk-related activities to direct and control the organization.”

Risk management systems use three main principles to address risk.

On a broader range, risk management is defined as establishing a coordinated and economical resource application that reduces, monitors, and regulates the likelihood and impact of unfortunate events. Danger management is important for companies-It helps to identify the appropriate measures to stay vigilant and create an action plan and techniques capable of minimizing or reducing the impacts of threats.

The ISO 31000 Framework reflects the cycle of plan, do, check, act (PDCA) that is common to all designs of management systems. The standard does however state that, “This framework is not intended to prescribe a management system, but rather to help the organization integrate risk management into its management system as a whole.”

Major elements of the Framework include:

ISO Certification 31000 Framework

Organizations, particularly those lacking formal knowledge of management systems, should be prepared to spend substantial time building up a comprehensive structure and resisting the temptation to dive straight into the risk assessment process. Process design is an important step because the framework provides stability and continuity to help set up a program, rather than just carrying out a project.

PROCESS

After establishing the risk management Framework, an organization is ready to develop the Process. The Process, as defined by ISO 31000, is “multi-step and iterative; designed to identify and analyze risks in the organizational context.”

Major elements of the Process, are mentioned in the flowchart below:
