ISO 31000:2009
Risk Management

ISO Consultant Colin says…

It has been suggested to me by certification bodies that as all the management system standards are about the management of risk, then the full adoption of this document will negate the need for ISO 9001/14001/18001 etc etc. I can’t see this in the foreseeable future, though the theory is interesting. Disappointingly I note that many organisations have produced guides to its interpretation. I’ve always thought it a bit of a failure if your English is so bad that you have to write a further document to make sure everyone interprets your first in a consistent manner. I suppose that depends whether your mortgage payments come from writing standards and their interpretative documents really.

ISO 31000 – What’s It All About?

BS ISO 31000 is the international standard for risk management that contains detailed principles and guidelines to aid organisations with their risk analysis and risk assessments.

Public, private or community enterprises can all benefit from this standard.
The Institute of Risk Management appear to agree with the standard, this certainly supplies gravitas to it.
