Question

An administrative office writes into policy that minor theft of low-value office supplies is accepted, with monitoring thresholds and an owner. When is this approach appropriate?

Accepted Answer

Low-impact risks may be consciously accepted when residual exposure fits appetite and is monitored — Not every missing stapler deserves a SWAT team.

Answer

Acceptance is valid only when life-safety exits are also left uncontrolled

Answer

Transfer through insurance is forbidden for any risk that is accepted
