Home Business Introduction to Risk
When start your planning process you have to do a risk analysis.
So many things that you had may have been tied to your work. Minimisation of risk is all about:
- What you want to take on personally
- What you want to insure against
- How you are going to plan to minimize risk
I have seen in my 20 years of tax work some tragic stories of failure. 20 clients died on the job never to come home from work. I have seen the aftermath in the widows and their children. I want things to be different! I have seen many business failures some leading to depression and suicide. I see marriage break-ups of business failure living children lost and lacking stability. I say enough is enough!!!
COVER THE RISKS
The areas to focus on are:
- Public liability
- Statutory liability
- Fair trading
- Health and safety
- Financial risk
- Personal risk
- Emotional risk
This not an inclusive list. Remember your PESTEL scan and SWOT analysis may start turning up further risks e.g. government regulation.
Think seriously about getting a professional to assist you with this e.g.
- A Lawyer
- An insurance broker
- A health and safety expert
Watch this space I have got a feeling that we will cover the risk topics in future blogs!!!
Remember better to plan for success that failure!
