D. Apply the process as needed
Explanation
The principle "Apply the process as needed" is not a risk management principle. Risk management principles generally focus on proactive measures to identify, assess, and mitigate risks. "Apply the process as needed" suggests a reactive approach where the risk management process is only applied when deemed necessary, which goes against the proactive nature of risk management.
4.
(102c) What is the third step in the risk management process?
Correct Answer
D. Make control decisions
Explanation
The third step in the risk management process is to make control decisions. This involves evaluating the identified hazards and determining the most effective control measures to mitigate or eliminate the risks associated with those hazards. It requires considering various factors such as feasibility, cost-effectiveness, and the potential impact of the control measures on the overall risk level. By making informed control decisions, organizations can effectively reduce the likelihood and severity of potential hazards, ensuring the safety and well-being of individuals and the success of their operations.
