Assess an area's risks and decide treatment

Which risks will be treated, accepted or otherwise handled by the responsible owner?

The accountable owner works from assessment and register. The record makes accept / treat / transfer and treatment owner clear to the next person.

Our delivery approach

Prepare the first useful playbook

Start with the materials and people you already have. We help make the setup choices explicit before your team uses the method.

  1. 01

    Select the working material

    Choose assessment and register from the resources your team uses.

    What we prepare togetherThe relevant resources are available for the tasks that use them.

  2. 02

    Agree the responsibilities

    Confirm team lead, accountable owner and designated specialist for this method, then choose the people eligible to receive its work.

    What we prepare togetherThe method names who contributes, reviews and receives the next work.

  3. 03

    Walk through the selected route

    Walk through these conditional steps: “Implement a treatment”; “Confirm the residual risk”.

    What we prepare togetherYour team sees the response and the resulting next step before extending the method.

Your questions

Prepare the method for your team

What stays with the recorded response?

The response for this occurrence retains accept / treat / transfer, treatment owner and due. It belongs to the work being reviewed, rather than replacing a different occurrence's record.

Which materials do we need to bring?

Bring assessment and register. We use those choices to prepare the working context, then check that each task opens the material it needs.

How do the conditional steps become part of the method?

The conditional route is used when a risk is marked treat. Select the variant or respond to the recorded condition before treating that step as required.

What is the outcome for the wider workflow?

Register updated with a decision for every risk; treatments implemented and residual risk accepted.
