Ortalan: Managing risk and responsibility.

Managing risk and responsibility

The modern business needs a robust risk management strategy that will cope effectively with day-to-day activities, and help you avoid disaster.

To develop such a strategy you must:

Identify the risks to health due to the nature of your business, as well as through general land and property management issues.
Having identified potential risks you must prioritise them — what is their probability, and how severe are they?
You must understand and control the management of risk within your organisation. A range of disparate risk management systems will impair your economic performance, as well as reducing your ability to manage risk effectively.
It is advisable to discuss your strategy with other similar organisations; this helps to ensure that you have not overlooked the obvious, and helps you refine your processes to minimise waste and maximise effectiveness.

Ortalan can assist you in preparing and/or evaluating your risk management strategy. We can help identify and prioritise risks specific to your business, and provide statistical research on risk probability.
