Entering Risks
When you click on a particular risk register, you will be presented with the list of risks, and a risk matrix.
There are a couple of ways to get risks into a risk register. Firstly, you can add them right into your article and then use the track option to copy them into the risk register. You can even use AI to identify risks in your policies and then have it populate the risk register.
Secondly, you can add it through the risk register directly. To add a new risk this way, click the "New Risk" button above the risk matrix:
This will bring up the following form:
We'll run through the fields in this form, below:
- Damage: Physical damage to assets.
- Safety: Threats to staff's wellbeing.
- Financial: Potential costs associated with the consequences of the risk.
- Legal: Breaking federal or state laws or regulations.
- Operations Disruption: The potential for your business to no longer be able to operate.
- Growth / Reputation: Any impact to your organization's brand or reputation, that could impact future growth.
- Other: List any other types of impact not covered above.
Many of these fields are optional, meaning you can leave them empty and come back to them later. What is important initially is to just describe the risk.
Once you are done entering that information, click OK to add the risk to the registry.
Note: Some of the sample policies may have associated risk information that will be created automatically when they are installed.
