List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.
ELEMENTS | PERFORMANCE CRITERIA |
Elements describe the essential outcomes | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. Where bold italicised text is used, further information is detailed in the range of conditions section. |
1. Identify threats and risks | 1.1 Identify threats and risks for mitigation purposes. 1.2 Consult with stakeholders during the identification process to build engagement. |
2. Analyse and evaluate risk and determine vulnerability | 2.1 Determine the nature of threats and risks to support selection of mitigation measures. 2.2 Record levels of threat and risk for monitoring and accountability purposes. 2.3 Determine threat and risk evaluation criteria based on legal, technical, financial, political, social considerations and best practice principles. 2.4 Compare threats and risks against evaluation criteria to determine degree of vulnerability. |
3. Assess risk management strategies | 3.1 Review existing risk management strategies to understand sufficiency and validity of current practices. 3.2 Identify strategies through researching current good practice, alternative options and expert opinion. 3.3 Evaluate strategies to identify their limitations and impact on stakeholders. 3.4 Communicate limitations and impact of strategies to stakeholders. |
4. Design and document risk management strategies | 4.1 Develop risk management strategies from prior research to support risk management planning. 4.2 Provide risk management strategies in a documented format to ensure accountability. 4.3 Submit risk management strategies through approval processes. |
5. Implement and monitor risk prevention strategies | 5.1 Apply risk prevention strategies to protect safety and well-being of stakeholders. 5.2 Track risk prevention strategies continually to ensure effective and sustainable implementation. 5.3 Communicate risk prevention strategies and activities to stakeholders. 5.4 Provide progress reports to achieve and maintain stakeholder engagement and support. |
