Document background
The Risk Assessment and Management Policy serves as a fundamental governance document for organizations operating in Ireland, designed to ensure compliance with the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 and other relevant Irish legislation. This policy is essential for organizations seeking to establish a structured approach to risk management, particularly in response to increasing regulatory scrutiny and the need for robust corporate governance. It provides comprehensive guidance on risk identification, assessment, and control measures, while defining clear responsibilities and reporting structures. The document is typically implemented as part of an organization's broader governance framework and should be regularly reviewed and updated to reflect changes in legislation, business operations, and risk landscape.
