I have been asked by our enterprise-wide Records Management Committee (made up
of high-level directors from finance, legal, IT, Records Management, Archives,
etc.) to help come up with a good definition of risk associated with record
keeping. They would like a definition that could be applied over the entire
organization (departments dealing with finance, HR, legal, IT, publications,
real estate, investments, etc.) They will then define a criteria for assessing
risk and then begin to apply this criteria to all record groups. This is an
effort by the committee to help us as an organization focus our energies,
prioritize our efforts, and deal with records that have the most risk to the
organization first. I've got some ideas but would like to see what some of the
RM community thinks.
Does anyone have a good definition of risk. Can a definition be applied
globally or are there different types of risk?
Thanks for any insight.
