What is Risk Management?

Risk Management is a process for controlling exposure to health and safety risks associated with hazards in the workplace. Risk Management involves:

  • a careful examination of what could cause harm to you and the people around you in your workplace;
  • weighing up whether you have taken enough precautions, or whether you should do more to prevent harm; and
  • controlling exposure to prevent harm.

The aim is to ensure no one gets hurt or becomes ill – that a person returns home safely after work.
