Health and Safety
Managing Health and Safety risks should never be undertaken in isolation, because poor health and safety management can have a negative impact on other business risks, such as brand, reputation, insurance, business continuity and financial well-being.
That’s why we have developed the Risk Dashboard – to make sure your business complies with Health and Safety law.
Human Resources
HR personnel should collect information about people-related governance, risk and compliance issues. The HR department should present company directors with a complete report of HR compliance and operational risks, as well as the recommended actions, and accept responsibility for reducing them.
HR departments need to identify and manage their risks effectively, and the Risk Dashboard has been developed to assist and mitigate against such risks.
Physical Security
The Risk Dashboard is designed to protect your assets, such as people, buildings and information, by identifying and managing the risks and addressing your physical security and resilience needs.
Our software allows you to consider how to protect your business and its assets. We help you identify threats and vulnerabilities physically present at your place of work.
Information Security
The largest growing threat to businesses today are online vulnerabilities and exploits, be that human or digital by design. The Risk Dashboard allows you to identify these threats at an early stage, acting as your ‘digital early warning system.’
With destructive malware ravaging the networks of both small businesses and larger enterprises, the Risk Dashboard allows you to adjust your tactics to ensure your continued safety so you’re not the next headline.
Business Continuity
Business continuity planning, or BCP, is the creation of a strategy through the recognition of threats and risks facing an organisation; with an eye to ensure that personnel and assets are protected and able to function in the event of a disaster.
The Risk Dashboard allows you to identify these threats at an early stage, acting as a red flag to alert you of where you are likely to face problems in the event of a disaster, thus allowing you to protect your business operations, and mitigate risks as a preventative measure.
Business Cost Cutting
Reducing costs in any business is fundamental. It helps to reduce the cost of operations throughout an organisation. It helps to set a competitive price of a product or service. It helps to increase market share, increase profit or return.
The Risk Dashboard has identified 45+ operating costs – to allow you to apply processes, develop resilience and increase profitability.
Environmental
Environmental Risk can be defined as the ‘actual or potential threats of adverse effects on living organisms and the environment by effluents, emissions, wastes, resource depletion, etc. arising out of an organisation’s activities.’
There are a number of environmental risks that a business needs to assess in order to avoid being penalised. The Risk Dashboard identifies the most common threats such as the control and disposal of waste, and risks in relation to trade effluent or liquid waste.
Finance
Financial risk includes any of the various types of risk associated with financing, for example, financial transactions of company loans in risk of default. Often it is understood to include only downside risk; the potential for financial loss and uncertainty about its extent.
The Risk Dashboard allows you to analyse trends and potential threats that could have a negative impact on your business, allowing you the foresight to take early corrective measures and prevent developing issues.
Sales and Marketing
As in other areas of any business, the threats within sales and marketing are business critical to the survival of your company. The Risk Dashboard has been developed to review key areas of your sales and marketing processes and reporting.
With clear and early indications through the Risk Dashboard software, we allow you to manage and mitigate against the impact of potential revenue and forecasting shortfalls.
GDPR
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a regulation by which the European Parliament, the Council of the European Union and the European Commission intend to strengthen and unify data protection for all individuals within the European Union (EU). It also addresses the export of personal data outside the EU. The primary objectives of the GDPR are to give citizens and residents back control of their personal data and to simplify the regulatory environment for international business by unifying the regulation within the EU.
The regulation was adopted on 27 April 2016. It applies from 25 May 2018 after a two-year transition period and, unlike a directive, it does not require any enabling legislation to be passed by national governments.
Fraud
Fraud follows opportunity and attacks weak points. You need to know where your business is vulnerable and how to take control and prevent incidents.
Having a reputation for integrity is crucial to safeguarding market confidence and public trust. Unfortunately, fraud and misconduct can seriously undermine such efforts, exposing an organisation to legal, regulatory or reputational damage.
The Risk Dashboard software works as an identifier to find areas of your business which are vulnerable and need improvement to be compliant and secure. Complete our Fraud risk indicator section to ensure that your business has an effective approach to mitigating risk of fraud.
Transport
The transportation industry is affected by business risks and increasing costs that are largely out of your control, any of which could significantly reduce your operating margins and income.
Using the Risk Dashboard software you can detect weakness in your fleet management and put effective measures into place for those risks which are to some extent controllable.
Quality
Quality is about making an organisation perform for its stakeholders. Quality Risk Management sits in the intersection of three different trends that impact many businesses, regardless of their size; Quality, Sustainability and Risk.
The Risk Dashboard has been created to identify, quantify and mitigate all types of quality risks across the different parts of your organisation and to keep your business legal and compliant.
PCI
If your business relies on card payments for monetary transactions, then you are subject to the Payment Cards Industry Data Security Standards.
Risk Dashboard can help you identify what aspects of PCI compliance relate specifically to your business, and how to best keep your customers’ valuable information safe and secure.
Buildings
There are many risks associated with buildings which can greatly affect both workplace health and safety as well as regular business operations.
Ensure you’ve properly assessed the risks related to your business building by completing the Buildings risk indicator section of the Risk Dashboard. Learn how to spot hazards, and decide on the best course of action to manage your risks
Anti-Money Laundering
Use the Risk Dashboard to learn how to spot suspicious activity at your workplace, and train your staff in anti-money laundering procedures. This section of the dashboard covers money laundering risks, policies, monitoring customer behaviour, and more.
Procurement and Supply
With technological advances, supply chain security has become increasing important. To avoid costly legal pitfalls, you’ll want to ensure you are appropriately monitoring your supply chain for risks, and taking the necessary precautions to prevent any incidents within your control.
Directors
By utilising the Risk Dashboard as a director, you can efficiently and quickly locate areas of business which have been the source of unknown issues.
We at Risk Dashboard, understand the added responsibilities and worries directors face when maintaining a business, and seek to give you peace of mind by optimising the process of risk management, and advise you on the best course of action to improve risk mitigation.
Storage and Warehouse
Effective storage and warehousing operations often require management teams to have more specific health and safety knowledge than other workplace settings. Ensure safety compliance and the efficient management of your warehouse by completing our risk indicator section covering this specialised topic in the Risk Dashboard.
Insurances
There are numerous kinds of insurances available for businesses. This section of the Risk Dashboard offers information on the types of insurance cover businesses are legally required to purchase, as well as a variety of other insurances which may be a wise investment.
Governance
Business governance is the system of rules, processes, and structures used to direct and control a business. It encompasses the relationship between the board of directors, management, and shareholders, as well as the way in which the business is managed.
Good business governance is essential for ensuring that a business is run in a responsible and ethical manner, and that it is accountable to its stakeholders. It can also help to improve a business’s performance and long-term sustainability.
