Risk management principles system

ANSEASSE Z690.2— 2011. Risk Management Principles and Guidelines (National Adoption of ISO 31,000 2009). The intent of this standard is to provide a broad ranged primer on risk management systems that could be applied in any type of organization. The need to make risk assessments is introduced in 5.4 Risk Assessment. 

Organizations fully engaged in the Operational Excellence journey tend to be extremely well run operations and have established management systems with effective processes, programs, procedures, and internal standards to address issues that pose such risks as presented above. Through the application of risk management principles and sound operational discipline practices, they are often able to avoid many such pitfalls. 

Life cycle management and change control provide a mechanism for continuous improvement. To support continuous improvement through change control a quality system would need to be based on principles of manufacturing science and risk-management. The proposed ICH QIO guidance is an opportunity to accomplish this task. 

Similar considerations apply to the discussions of approaches to risk management in Section 3.3. Readers who are knowledgeable about principles of radiation protection may not be familiar with the different approach to health protection used for hazardous chemicals, and vice versa, and an understanding and resolution of the different approaches to risk management is important in developing a comprehensive and risk-based waste classification system. 

Previous sections of this Report have discussed concepts, precedents, and technical information that are important to development of NCRP s recommendations on a comprehensive and risk-based hazardous waste classification system. This Section discusses selected aspects of this background information that are critical to establishing the principles and framework for the recommended hazardous waste classification system. The topics discussed involve technical aspects of risk assessment and issues of risk management. 

A transportation risk management system shottld be based on the following principles ... 

Section 13.3 outiines the principles of modeling packaging and food, using two simple but effective examples. They illustrate the concepts of critical steps, or materials or substances critical for food safety via a quantitative failure mode, effects and criticahty analysis (FMECA) approach, derived from concepts used by the aviation or electronic industry for critical systems. It is a systematic approach which today facilitates the risk management at the sector scale, of several thousand references or complex assemblies integrating various materials and dozens of substances [NGU13] via an expert distributable and modifiable system FMECAengine [VIT 11b]. 

You ll find presentation material here for classroom use or for self-instruction. There are also workshop problems, and there s our Jacobs Sverdrup System Safety Scrapbook of ideas on the principles of system safety practice. You ll also find four bibliographies of texts pertinent to this field, as well as a System Safety and Risk Management Guide for Engineering Educators. All of these materials undergo revisions from time to time, so revisit the site often to see new and important items. 

Years ago, safety pioneers saw the need for structured SMS that were risk based, management led, and audit driven. Based on sound management principles, they realized that safety must be measured if it was to be improved. This measurement had to gauge effort rather than experience in the form of injury rates alone. Modern systems do just that and form a sound basis for safety benchmarking internationally.
