The ISO 31000 Standard offers generic orientations for risk management. ISO 31000 sets out principles, a framework, and a process for the management of all forms of risk, in all organizations, regardless of size. It does not mandate a one-size-fits-all approach, but emphasizes tailoring the principles and guidelines to the specific needs and structure of the organization.
Organizations of all types and sizes face a range of risks that can have an impact on whether they achieve their objectives. All organizational activities involve risks. The ISO 31000 guidelines promote integration of risk management into all aspects of an organization’s activities, including strategy and planning, business resilience, IT, corporate governance, HR, compliance, health and safety, business continuity, crisis management and security.
