Workers decide on a daily basis whether it is acceptable to take a risk, but often consider &#8220;safety&#8221; to be the company&#8217;s responsibility. Shifting the mindset of employees to risk-based thinking will ensure greater staff involvement in monitoring the safety of operations.<\/p>\n\n<p>The following graph compares both concepts:<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5187\" src=\"https:\/\/www.laragon.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Gr%C3%A1fico.-Traducido-por-Laragon.-Autor-Alfonsius-Ariawan.png\" alt=\"\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<p>Graph. Translated by Laragon. \/ Author: Alfonsius Ariawan<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3><strong>Good Governance and Management<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>Because an organization&#8217;s resources are limited, they must be applied judiciously to ensure maximum risk reduction. To do this, organizations must have a clear understanding of their operational risk profile, which is assessed against common definitions of probability and impact, and prioritize the approach and ownership of risks based on a defined tolerance.<\/p>\n\n<p>Not all risks are equal. Some events are less likely to occur, but carry impacts that can be devastating (e.g., multiple fatalities, prolonged equipment downtime, bankruptcy, etc.). Other events are more likely, but have much less severe impacts (e.g., minor injuries, after-hours work, etc.).<\/p>\n\n<p>In doing so, companies should place sufficient emphasis on risks that can lead to large-scale incidents and, in addition, pay attention to other important indicators of possible significant long-term events.<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3><strong>Processes and technologies<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>Risk management requires systemic thinking. When conducting security incident investigations, root causes must be identified at the system level and addressed accordingly to prevent recurrence. If system problems are not identified and addressed, incidents may recur in the future.<\/p>\n\n<p>By extension, to prevent the occurrence of security incidents, organizations need to manage risks at the system level, recognizing the interconnectivity of the various processes that comprise it. Unfortunately, many companies seem to have problems and their executives recognize that there are gaps between their existing systems, preventing effective integration.<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3><strong>Capabilities and competencies<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>Ultimately, any security management system must be run by people. It will not produce the desired results without a workforce that is capable and has the right mindset and discipline to execute, and without the processes to manage employee performance.<\/p>\n\n<p>Leveraging the day-to-day operational knowledge of front-line personnel in the workspace: a plant, a shop floor, in the field, etc. is a key success factor in any cultural transformation. Organizations must recognize that these personnel are a critical level of protection within their operations. These workers are more familiar with the organization&#8217;s activities, equipment and processes and, therefore, with the risks. They must be adequately engaged, empowered and supported.<\/p>\n\n<p>Finally, it is important for leaders to be &#8220;affective&#8221; in their approach to risk management. Company executives should strive to foster a trustworthy work environment, and their leadership style should demonstrate humility and partnership with employees.<\/p>\n\n<p>Given the daily demands of an organization, it is easy to adopt a mindset of assuming that as long as procedures are followed, the company is operating safely and productively. All too often, this false sense of security eventually gives way to an incident that will affect the organization.<\/p>\n\n<p>By focusing more on risk reduction outcomes and linking risk mitigation activities to the organization&#8217;s business strategies, companies can improve operations and productivity.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Laragon offers the best <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.laragon.es\/en\/\">\n  <strong>technological solutions<\/strong>\n<\/a><strong> to pilot these processes, working with global market leaders in EHS and Operational Risk Management.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>If you would like to know more about our experiences with clients in this area, please contact us by calling us at: +34 91 254 7019 or by email: info@laragon.es.  <\/strong><\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5055\" src=\"https:\/\/www.laragon.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/2018-09-26_11h12_51.png\" alt=\"\"><\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Operational Risk strategies must take into account productivity and competitiveness in order to bring effectiveness and greater value to your company.
