Professional Negligence Solicitors Release Guide To Risk Management

March 30, 2009 - PRLog -- ‘Risk assessment in the real world’ from Liverpool’s EAD solicitors reveals all of the aspects of risk management that companies need to be aware of, in order to avoid being at risk of professional negligence.

EAD believe in a holistic approach to risk management, demonstrating that the scope of arrangements should not be confined to risks arising from professional negligence. Risk management measures should also extend to client and business-related risks of all sorts.

A non-exhaustive list of risk management procedures might include complaints (including a complaints log); client related credit risks and exposure, claims under legislation relating to such matters as data protection; IT facilities and abuses, and damage to the working environment.

Many companies find that their employees are averse to risk management, viewing it as just another bit of red tape which detracts from their daily working activity. However, if backed by effective education and supervision, it can become something which is part of your corporate culture and relevant to your company and its employees.

A spokesperson for the Liverpool-based professional negligence specialists commented: “There is a lot of talk about the importance of risk management and how it can be used most effectively. It is certainly a subject of topical interest, but what does it actually mean in the real world? And how do we get it onto the agenda for businesses?

“This article attempts to answer those questions by making people aware of all of the issues surrounding risk management and professional negligence.”
