Risk Identification and Assessment for Policy Programs
Methodology to identify, evaluate, and prioritize risks that affect policy effectiveness and compliance.

Conduct a risk assessment to identify potential failures in policy design or implementation, including reporting barriers and ineffective investigations.

Use a risk matrix to assess likelihood and impact, categorize risks, and prioritize controls.

Define controls and mitigations such as training, reporting channels, confidentiality, escalation paths, and escalation timescales.

Assign ownership for controls, establish monitoring indicators, and set review timelines to keep the program current.
