Sensible risk management

Sensible Risk Management

EAs shall promote the principles of sensible risk management including:

• ensuring that workers and citizens are properly protected
• providing overall benefit to society by balancing benefits and risks, with a focus on controlling real risks – both  those which arise more often and those with serious consequences
• enabling innovation and learning not stifling them
• ensuring that those who create risks manage them responsibly and understand that failure to manage real  risks responsibly is likely to lead to robust action
• enabling individuals to understand that as well as the right to protection, they also have to exercise personal responsibility
