This section details various options to reduce the likelihood and consequences of contemporary or potential processes and procedures. In conclusion, a framework of treatment options is provided that can greatly assist businesses in evaluating risk treatment strategies at different levels of an organisation.
Event management and business recovery/continuity
Significant components of risk management beyond the levels of prevention and integrated into the preparedness are the preparation for the management of the risk event and the management of the business recovery and continuity. These events could range from life-and-death situations such as evacuation plans for a major fire or explosion to internalised operations such as communications. Providing a generic procedure for these events will help minimise risk, as well as enhance recovery. Finally, deriving a validation system to test the effectiveness and adequacy of event management and business continuity plans and procedures is a vital stage of successfully managing risk along with a robust monitoring and communication system.
