SPM 4723 Final || A+ Verified Solutions.
- inherent risks = part of activity correct answers - risk management = the continual, formal
process of assessing an organizations exposure to risk and reducing impact. goal is not to
eliminate all risk, but to minimize risk without changing the activity itself.

-REASONS: 1. have moral, legal, and ethical obligation. 2. reducing injury and loss reduces
exposure to losing money. 3. minimize time loss due to breakdowns, expand the lifespan of
equipment, and reduce risk of injury

developing risk management plan correct answers 1. identifying crisis = activity itself, indoor vs.
outdoor, number of participants. Hire outside consultants. Look at standards and guidelines on
rules, case analysis

Categorize: see powerpoint

2. classifying the risks =

-severity = the magnitude of innjury or lossand impact on company. rank severity on minor vs.
major. minor could be a sprain. major could be paralysis.

low
moderate
critical
catastrophic

low moderate or high = frequency

- risk index = probability x frequency

3. selecting methods of treatment for risks =

-eliminate = may have to completely alter an activity or get rid of it entirely. eliminating all risk
is usually not first option.

-transfer = economic approach. transfers when risk is not substantial to eliminate, but the risk is
greater than the organization can assume on their own. e.g. have insurance, use contractors,
waivers, and participation agreements. e.g. having a pool, have insurance in case of emergency.
-retain = when risks are minor or inexpensive, which may be cheaper than buying insurance. e.g.
insurance to cover facility, but comes with high deductible, e.g. steals something of low value,
point is to decrease the risk.
-reduce = most important option. can not always eliminate risk so reducing it is most important
options. e.g. companies can do this by training employees, perform regular inspections,
maintence, keep good records.

*most companies use insurance, waivers and training.

, -implement, monitor, and modify as needed.

inspections correct answers -should be completed annually, important to do periodically as well.

-NATA recommends = trained in lightning safety, have a weather watcher, lightning detector,
30/30 rule is suspend play in 8 mile radius, already be suspended in 6 miles.
- flash = # of seconds then divide by 5 to get rough estimate in miles

centers most common places
