Hi guys
I have evaluated risks in a simple manner in 9001 2015.
and had the idea that when risk is evaluated, PxI,
the probability was the only that can be minimized.
However lastly have read somewhere that also impact can be modified.
Risk evaluation steps is as follows:
I´ll try to imagine a case, please tell me if is right or wrong.
Case:
Key person near to retirement
Risk value = probability x impact
range 1-5
probability is very high, (in six months is leaving the company)
Impact= well, here it could be measured in several viewpoints
normally, image, insatisfaction to clients, financial loss, because this person knows all the company, clients, business operation,etc.
So RV = 5 x 5 = 25, very high value
Actions for mitigation:
To hire a person with similar competency and be trained properly.
Ok, now new person is in place and is performing very well.
Then we need to evaluate residual risk.
RV = PxI
Probability is very low = 1, and the Impact value?
In my viewpoint, is the same because if this person (Position) is absent
the impact value remains the same, or can be changed?
A vague idea to reduce the impact could be, for example in the same case
(financial loss) that I may get some funds to reduce the impact, or the poor image to client, I could provide additional services or products to improve
satisfaction.
this way impact value, could be changed and lowered.
Rv = 1 x 2= 2
very low risk value.
Could you give some comments ?
Thanks
