04: Risk Governance Model - Concepts Flashcards
Framework used
Peculiarity
International Risk Governance Council
where RMgmt = risk mitigation
3 RM tasks:
1- R identification
2- R mitigation
3- R communication
Accident n incident analysis
Problems (2)
- many factors: search all! > Work design
- Rare combinations may not repeat…
creating too many rules just to prevent rare occurrences!
Risk assessment:
2 dims
2 ways to assess
Severity n likelihood > good n bad corner
Qualitative or quantitative
Risk mitigation has 3 possible focus points
Times 3 Methods:
- reduce events or uncertainty or conseq.
- w risk avoidance, reduction or transfer
Risk reduction n complexity
2 Problem concepts
Example field
How to defend
Black swans, (un)known unknowns
Eg cybersecurity
With ‘Defence-in-depth’ systems > concentric defences
3 kinds of uncertainty in RM
SLIDE 9 Oct19
- complexity
- uncertainty
- ambiguity
Types of Risk/safety at work:
Primary n secondary task
Behavioral implications n psy challeges
- Process risk > protect prod proc
- Personal risk > protect people
Perception of type has behavioral implications.
Psy challenge: personal safety conflicts w main work goal, so you have to trick them!
Safety first?
Unrealistic: total safety would sometimes mean going out of biz
> Trade-offs!
Components of safety mgmt
Many! See slide 12 Oct19
Safety culture debate =
What is safety culture? Is it equal to safety rules, or how do you define n measure it otherwise?
Organizational culture : def, who
Schein 1985:
It emerges over time
Key dim f safety culture:
Are human beings seen as a factor of Risk or of safety?
