Managing operational risks


Use as many fields as is applicable and add more if you need to.

Risk
Solution
Staff
·        Staff getting injured or killed in accident

·        One of the staff gets ill or goes on maternity leave

·        Annual leave


·        Life insurance, it would help cover the cost to hire someone

·        Others substitute for her or hire someone

·        Only one person can go simultaneously

Suppliers
·        Supplier can’t deliver or is late

·        Supplier delivers wrong goods



·        Laptop or printer breaks down


·        Car breaks down



·        Flight gets cancelled while travelling


·        Get stuck, can’t find out more

·        We discover about an ancestor something unpleasant and we get sued for it



·        Our work laptop gets stoles/lost or someone tries to steal information about clients from us

·        Have some equipment is store

·        Send goods back and have some stationery in store


·        Call IT engineer, if it is  irreparable  buy a new one

·        Take it to  mechanic and travel to the destination by other mean of transport

·        Report it to partners and rebook ticket


·        Close the research

·        Have Professional Indemnity Insurance which helps to cover the legal costs and the settlement claims


·        Have Safestick USB-s and password protected laptops


According to the Data Protection Act if we handle personal information we have to be sure no one else can access it or steal it from us. These USB Flash Drives are password protected and the laptops are too, so you can't copy information from the laptop only if you have a safe stick and know the password.
 If the laptop gets stolen the information is safe, because people can't access it without the password and the hard drive seems to be unformatted.
Also, the Data Protection Act states that we are not allowed to talk about our client’s with our family or friends. We are only allowed to share what we found out only with the client.

The Professional Indemnity Cover would help us in cases when we would find out something unpleasant, for example: The client’s mother had a baby as a teenager but she gave the baby to adoption. She never told this to her children and is not happy now that her secret got revealed. The Professional Indemnity Cover would help to settle with her.
