Risk Analysis & Planning
Risk Analysis
- Risk Analysis is a process by which areas of potential and real loss are identified and cost effective countermeasures are planned and implemented to prevent those risks/losses.
- Any Risk Analysis done for an organisation will be done in the knowledge that the aim is to positively affect that organisation in terms of safety and profit.
- Ultimately the goal of Risk Analysis is to protect people, facilities, equipment and other assets against probable threats.
- Protection is achieved through the implementation of cost effective plans, procedures, policies and systems.
Real losses identified during Risk Analysis can be both direct and indirect
- Direct losses are those that are obvious. For example: Theft, vandalism, fraud etc.
- Indirect losses are more intangible, these include: Loss of Business, Loss of consumer confidence, Low staff Morale etc.
The Risk Analysts at Masterguard Security Services have extensive experience and can easily identify the Real and Potential losses your organisation is exposed to.
