By partnering with All Hands, you reduce costs by putting our collective knowledge base and our expert team of emergency management experts to work for you.

Understanding Risk

Risk can be defined as a potential for loss.Risk Assessments are designed to establish baseline information regarding current and acceptable levels of risk for an organization, community, or the environment. A risk assessment is a process of identifying and minimizing the exposures to certain threats which an organization or community may experience.

Risk Assessment = Hazard Identification + Impact Analysis

All Hands performs hazard vulnerability analyses to identify hazards and to determine their frequencies, intensities, and potential impacts. We rate the impacts and develop a score that rates the organizations ability to carry out its mission in light of each hazard. This information is then used in the prioritization of preparedness and prevention steps.
