Concepts of Risk
Management
Provides a flexible framework for estimating,
planning and controlling the impact of the
risk.
It attempts to identify and manage threats
that can severely impact or bring down an
organization.
It creates a strategy to reduce financial loss,
physical injuries and property damage.
It analyzes the costs and benefits of those
programs and strategies.
Concepts of Risk
Management
Levels of Risk Management
Crisis Management
- calls for plants to be in place if and when the crisis
occurs.
Facilities Management
- calls for one long-term planned development of
buildings, offices and computers manufacturing plants and
their planned operation and maintenance.
Security Management
- calls for guarding of physical properties against theft,
fraud and forgery.
Safety management
- is about plants against workplace accidents.
Insurance management
- calls for planned transfer of risks
Concepts of Risk
Management
Types of Risks to be Managed
Financial Risks
- related to involvement of funds
Industrial Risks
- related to hazards in factory, and stores.
Transportation Risks
- raw materials, finished goods, and machinery
Technology Risks
- Products like software data and programs, and
hardware like data storage, cable network, and Internet
etc.
Historical Development
Risk Management is our tool for survival and
growth.
Successful application of risk management
started around 1955 through concept of scientific
management by Taylor came about in 1930.
Concept of risk management grew out of
insurance buying and selling.
Product risk analysis followed development of
system reliability analysis used greatly in Space
Sciences and by Defense Departments.
Quantitative Risk analysis grew exponentially
into tools of Financial Risk Analysis.
Effective Communication
and Risk Management
Timely communication is essential for the
HSM(Health Safety Management) to produce result.
The development in IT(Information Technology)
and communication can help organization in a big
way and will save valuable time and money.
Risk Management is an essential part of health and
safety management.
Role of IT in Health and safety Management
Identification of Hazards and their Monitoring
Monitoring Health of Assets
Calibration of Measuring Equipment
Post Loss
Functions of Risk
Survival
An organization survives when its
production integrity remains intact, its
marketing force is seen on road and finance
does not emit any public signal of crunch.
Continuity of Operation
Making the continuity visible despite a
major loss.
Post Loss
Functions of Risk
Humanitarian Conduct
Handling human resources to ensure continuity
of their contribution towards the enterprise
value.
Initiate and Conclude the Recovery Process
Recovery from insurers, debtors and other
agencies where the risk stood transferred and
spread should be completed at the earliest and
the resources to be handed over to management to
prevent volatility of resources.
Emergency management
The process of preparing for, mitigating, responding to
and recovering from an emergency.
Chemicals
When not handled properly can cause fires, explosions
or toxic exposures. Safe storage, proper handling and
transportation are needed.
Hazards in Manufacturing Industries
A hazard in any existing or potential condition in the
workplace which, by itself or interacting with other
variables, can result in accidents. Those responsible for
maintenance may sometimes cause hazards in the
workplace.
Such failures are not intentional. Often maintenance
management does not have safety standards in place, or
has not trained their workers in safe maintenance
practices.
Safety Education
under EPRP
Safety
Defined as a condition or state of being resulting
from the modifications of human behavior and/or
designing of the physical environment to reduce the
possibility of hazards there by reducing accidents.
Safety Education
Proactive development of knowledge, attitude,
attitude, behavior and skills of the employee on safety.
Feedback
Feedback from the participants of all the groups
should be obtained after conducting the designed
safety education program.

Emergency Plans
Mock exercises
It should be carried out at least once in a year to
train the employees, up to date the plan, observe
and rectify the deficiencies.
