Mackay Safety Risk Management Consulting Services

Our risk management consultants provide expert guidance on how to identify, assess, treat and monitor the risks that affect your business operations, finances, reputation and compliance.

What Is Risk Management Consulting?

Risk management consulting is a critical service that provides businesses with the expertise and insights needed to identify, assess, and mitigate risks over which they have control or influence. This service is essential for organisations looking to protect their assets, reputation, and long-term success. The role of risk management consultants is to offer specialised knowledge and strategies that enable businesses to effectively manage potential threats.

WHS Risk Identification

The process begins with risk identification, where consultants work closely with you and your team to pinpoint specific risks that could impact your operations. This includes financial risks, operational risks, strategic risks, compliance risks, and environmental risks. By understanding the unique aspects of your business, risk management consultants can tailor their approach to address specific concerns.

WHS Risk Assessment

Following identification, the focus shifts to risk assessment. This involves evaluating the likelihood and potential impact of identified risks. Consultants use a range of tools and methodologies, such as risk matrixes, Broad Brush (BBRA), Bowtie and Event Trees to quantify and prioritise risks. This step is crucial for businesses to understand which risks pose the greatest threat and require immediate attention.

Utilising the Risk Management Standard AS/NZS ISO 31000, and other relevant standards to your industry, we facilitate the risk assessment process with your team with the intent to effectively assess your operation’s current level of risk.

From there, reasonably practicable solutions (risk controls) are identified for any risk outcome level deemed unacceptable, and action plans formulated.

Risk Monitoring & Review

The monitoring and review process is a critical aspect of risk management. We can help with developing strategies to ensure the risk controls identified are implemented correctly, are effective, do not create new risks, potential change is planned for, and the overall risk to your operations is managed.

The business environment is dynamic and ever evolving, which means new potential risks emerge. An effective risk management process is planned, continuously applied, proactive, embraced by the workforce, and regularly reviewed.
