Make sure to look over the Phase III template as well as the Developing a Risk Management. Please let me know if you need anything else.OL 645: Risk Management Plan Project Instructions and Rubric
Overview
The HR department plays a critical role in risk management strategy, education, and mitigation. When a risk situation has arisen within an organization, the HR
department must respond and take action.
Imagine that you have just been hired as an HR manager for a large corporation (fictitious or real). The executive team is worried about potential organizational
risks within the company. They have asked you to create a risk management plan to mitigate organizational risk.
In order to understand the process of how an organization responds to a risk situation, you will need to find two public cases of risk mitigation. In examining the
two public cases, you will pay special attention to the legal, ethical, safety, environmental, cultural, political, and financial factors addressed by both.
Your goal will be to create a compare and contrast assessment of the two cases regarding the aforementioned considerations. The result of the two case
comparisons will allow you to extract best practices while developing a risk management plan for the company you work for.
The risk management plan will showcase your mastery with respect to the following course outcomes:
•
Analyze ethical and legal risks of complex human resource issues to ensure legal compliance and to mitigate risk.
•
Predict the impact and costs of legal, safety, environmental, and financial risks on stakeholders.
•
Analyze societal, cultural, and political factors in order to make well-informed human resource decisions.
•
Evaluate the current trends related to workplace health, safety and security for their impact on corporate social responsibility.
•
Describe pertinent federal employment laws that are related to ethical challenges facing human resource professionals today.

INTRODUCTION
We shall define risk in this context as the possibility that something harmful or undesirable may happen. This
could include harm, injury, or abuse to your organization’s clients, volunteers, board members, employees,
property, or reputation.
Risk management is therefore the procedure that an organization follows to protect itself, its staff, clients, and
volunteers. This is an ongoing process.
Remember that it is not possible to eliminate all risk. Your responsibility is to demonstrate that you
have recognized the risks you could face and have taken reasonable precautions to prevent them from causing
harm to your clients’ volunteers, board members, employees, property, or reputation.
This guideline has been developed to help organizations design and implement an effective and proactive risk
management plan in response to the circumstances we face in this country because of post-election violence.
This process will help management recognize the risks it is facing, perform risk assessments, and develop
strategies to mitigate risks using management resources available to them.
STEPS IN THE RISK MANAGEMENT PROCESS
STEP ONE: Establish your context
Identify, assess, and document potential risks. This involves mapping the following: social scope of risk
management (what are your stakeholders facing); the identify and objectives of stakeholders (do you want to
ensure minimal financial impact, programmatic impact, etc.); what resources are available to us to help mitigate
the effects of the risks; what structures do we have in place to cope with the scenarios that could present
themselves.
TIP: Get a little help. Talk with organizations similar to your own and ask about their experience.
STEP TWO: Identification of possible risks
Instead of looking at the problem at hand, consider the causes of the problems you might face. The source of
the risk should not be ignored but because we face a national problem, we can only effectively address the
problems that are presented to us at grantee level.
This means that grantees should look at the threats that they are facing, such as losing money, accidents,
casualties, loss of staff, loss of property, etc.
It is helpful to classify the possible risks according to categories, such as: risks to general operations;
personnel; program beneficiaries; property, building and equipment; perpetuation.
1
TIP: Talk to your stakeholders, find out about their concerns about safety and brainstorm what you might do to
address these.
STEP THREE: Assessment
Once risks have been identified, they must be assessed for potential severity of loss and probability of
occurrence. These quantities can be either simple to measure, in the case of the value of a lost building, or
impossible to know for sure, in the case of the probability of an unlikely event occurring. This is why, in the
assessment process, it is critical to make the best guesses possible in order to properly prioritize.

STEP FOUR: Potential risk treatments- how will you manage the risk?
Once the risks have been identified, it is important to outline the courses of action to address these. Possible
scenario/solutions:
Avoidance (elimination): Includes not performing an risky activities, i.e changing the travel routes,
avoiding areas deemed unsafe, etc.
2. Reduction (mitigation): Involves methods that reduce the severity of the loss e.g. equipping staff with
health and safety kits, keeping emergency numbers, fire equipment, backing up files, etc.
3. Retention: Involves accepting the loss when it occurs.
4. Transfer: Means causing another party to accept the risk. This can be typically done through insurance,
outsourcing services, etc.
1.
These strategies work best when combined.
TIP: Develop, monitor, and communicate written policies and procedures to all stakeholders so that they are aware of
paths of mitigation.
STEP FIVE: Create a risk management plan
Select appropriate controls or countermeasures to measure each risk. The mitigation needs to be approved
by the appropriate level of management

STEP SIX: Implementation
Follow all the planned methods for mitigating the effect of the risks.
3
STEP SEVEN: Evaluate and review
Initial plans are never perfect or wholly effective. Experience and change in circumstances will necessitate
changes in the plan and contribute information to allow different decisions to be made depending on the risk
being faced.
TIP: A successful risk management strategy is one that is tailored to your organization. It is up to you to design a
strategy that is realistic given the resources of your organization and any other limitations you may face

Once the team has gone through the evaluation of the risks and has come up with remedial strategies, a
simple risk management framework can be outlined as follows:
SAMPLE OUTLINE OF THE RISK MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK
Organization XYZ
Risk Management Policy and process
Date
1. Risk to assets/equipment/property
1.1. Safety precautions
• Do you have a fire extinguisher on site?
• Do you have a first aid kit on site?
• Do you have 24 hour security?
• Do you have an alarm response mechanism in place?
• In case of a security breech, who will be contacted?
1.2. Inventory
• Do you have a current property inventory list? (office and furniture)
• Do you have more than one copy of the inventory list?
• Where are copies of the inventory list kept?
1.3. Computer records
• Do you back up your main server/hard drive?
• How often do you back up your system?
• Do you have more than one back-up copy?
• Where are the back-ups kept?
• Do all staff back up their individual files onto CD-Rom?
1.4. Storage of furniture and equipment
• Who is the staff property coordinator in charge of equipment inventories, liability, and
storage?
• Who is responsible for arranging storage for furniture and equipment in case of temporary
or long-term closure of office?
7
1.5. Contents of the safe
• Who keeps an inventory of the contents of the safe (such as petty cash, checkbooks, and
important records?)
• In case of emergency, where will the checkbooks and important documents be kept?
1.6. Important documents
• Where are copies of project contracts, cooperative agreements, leases, insurance policies,
database records (with backup diskettes), and registration documents kept?
1.7. Keys
• Do you have a complete set of duplicate keys?
• Where is the set of duplicate keys kept?
1.8. Personnel telephone line and communication strategy
• Does every member of staff have an updated telephone list of all local staff and important
telephone numbers (such as hospitals, police emergency numbers, ambulance services, etc.)?
• Do you have an established communications system that defines the chain of communication
in case of emergency? Draw up a communication tree. Example:
Executive director
Information flow
Supervisor 1
Staff
Staff
Supervisor 2
Staff
Supervisor 3
Staff
Staff
Staff
Ideally, information flows from supervisors downward as appropriate until everyone is reached.
1.9. Property insurance
• Is your property insured?
• Where are copies of the insurance policies kept?
8
2. Risk to Personnel
2.1. Chain of command
• What is the order of command in the organization in case of emergency? I.e., if the
executive director is incapacitated, who will be the acting team leader? And if that person is
incapacitated, who is next in line? (Up to three levels).
2.2. Signatories on bank accounts
• Who are the signatories to your accounts?
• In case of an emergency, do you have alternative signatories to the accounts?
2.3. Manuals of procedures
• Do you have complete manuals for important office procedures?
2.4. Cross training
• Are all staff familiar with basic office procedures?

Introduction to Your Organization
This section identifies the organization you are discussing in the paper. What is the name? How
long have they been in business? What is the company’s industry? How many employees? Domestic
only or is there an international component? Paint a brief picture here. Remember, this is a fictitious or
real organization and should NOT be associated with Ernst & Young or the Case Study organizations you
discussed in prior papers. A brief background as to the historical and current risk issues associated with
the organization would be appropriate to include in this section.
Legal Compliance
Rubric: Proposes logical and ethical measures to ensure legal compliance for all key stakeholders and
incorporates specific examples to substantiate and clarify claims.
Example: The current risk for XYZ Organization’s legal compliance with respect to our Board of
Directors is minimal at this time. We currently offer training to incoming board members, and
current members are appointed based on a thorough vetting process which includes an in-depth
background check.
As you can see, the specific topic is addressed using a specific example of compliance which is
directly related to a key stakeholder (the Board) of the organization in question. Select 2-3 Key
Stakeholders to discuss in this section of your submission. Continue this trend in the sections
which call for the inclusion of “specific examples”. What aspects from the assigned readings
would be appropriate to include here?
Risk Mitigation
Rubric: Proposes logical and ethical ways for mitigating risks for all key stakeholders and incorporates
specific examples to substantiate and clarify claims.
What aspects from the assigned readings would be appropriate to include here that are specific
to this particular organization’s risk management plan?

Potential Impact
Rubric: Evaluates the impact of legal, safety, environmental, and financial risks and incorporates specific
examples to substantiate and clarify claims.
What aspects from the assigned readings would be appropriate to include here?
Public Relations – Societal
Rubric: Accurately analyzes the influences associated with societal support and opposition and
proposals are insightful and substantiated by scholarly research. As a reminder, scholarly research
involves articles/reports from scholarly journals which are well respected for the information and
research they provide on a particular subject. They are written by experts in a particular field or discipline
and their purpose is to advance the ongoing body of work within their discipline. Newspaper or magazine
articles, blogs, or the like are not considered scholarly. Some books as well as Journal Articles (those that
have been peer-reviewed) are considered scholarly.
Example: XYZ Organization’s public relations plan is to ensure our brand is on message with
positive Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives such as giving to the United Way and offering
a comprehensive FMLA policy which allows for paid leave of up to 12 weeks for the birth or
adoption of a child. According to Made Upname (2018) “offering this sort of incentive to
employees creates good-will both internally and externally” (p.#).
As you can see, the specific topic is addressed using a specific example of compliance and is tied
to a scholarly research component. Select 1-2 influences to discuss in this section of your
submission. Continue this trend in the sections which call for the inclusion of “scholarly
research”. What aspects from the assigned readings would be appropriate to include here?
Public Relations – Cultural
Rubric: Accurately analyzes influences associated with cultural support and opposition and proposals
