Training Staff for Implementation of Risk Management
The provision of training to staff and volunteers is a fundamental aspect
of risk management.
This training may take place:
- As a part of an induction process for new
staff and volunteers
- At planned intervals, staff amd volunteers may receive
further training to ensure that their knowledge and awareness
of risk management continues to be developed.
- On a continuous basis, by enabling staff and volunteers to have ready
access to risk management principles, facts, procedures
and other important information through a corporate
website or an in-house newsletter.
- On special occasions when a bolstering of
risk management awareness and knowledge is required. For
example, it may take place after a accident has occurred
or before a major event takes place so as to reduce possible
risks.
This training will likely include:
- Creating an awareness of risks, how risks are evaluated and prioritised
- Brainstorming on risks, evaluating actual occurences of risks
- Following procedures in case of emergency
- Discussing and explaining risk management
policy and the duty of all staff to have knowledge
of the policy
- Giving practical advice to staff and volunteers on how to
implement the policy in their own work situations
- Giving copies of risk management policy to staff and volunteers
