ISO 31000:2018
Many activities of an organization involve risk. Organizations identify the risks they may face, analyze them, perform risk ratings and manage them by evaluating whether they can change the risk.
Throughout this process, organizations monitor and review risk by checking for changes in their activities, as well as communicating and consulting with their stakeholders to ensure there are additional considerations to address the risk, and by checking factors that change existing risks. The standard describes this systematic and logical process in detail. While all organizations manage risk to some degree, this standard establishes a number of principles that must be met to make risk management effective. This standard recommends that organizations develop, implement and continually improve a framework to integrate risk management into their overall governance, strategy and planning, management, reporting processes, policies, values and culture. The general approach described in this standard provides the principles and general principles for managing risks of any character in a systematic, transparent and reliable manner, within scope and content.
