Risk Management Policy
Requires teams to identify, control and escalate material risks.
Governing Body members, employees, consultants, volunteers, interns, facilitators and contractors where the subject relates to their role.
Risk areas
Punjabi Samvad assesses risks to participants, staff, funds, programmes, legal compliance, information, partnerships and reputation.
Risk register
- Describe the risk and affected people or assets.
- Rate likelihood and consequence using the approved scale.
- Record existing controls and gaps.
- Assign an owner and due date.
- Record the remaining risk after action.
Escalation
Staff raise an immediate safety, safeguarding, fraud, legal or data risk without waiting for a scheduled review. Programme leads bring material or persistent risks to senior leadership or the Governing Body.
Review
The Governing Body reviews major risks at planned intervals and after a serious incident or significant change in programme, funding, law or operating area.
Punjabi Samvad follows applicable law where it sets a stricter rule or a different process. This public page does not replace a statutory committee order, employment term, funding agreement or signed internal procedure.
