Leadership wants risks identified only from last year's incident log and forbids floor walk-arounds. What should the risk manager argue?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Logs are rear-view mirrors; walk-arounds are looking through the windshield. Stuff that has not crashed yet still shows up on the floor. You need both history and eyes on the work.
Full Explanation
Incident logs capture past events but miss emerging or latent hazards not yet recorded. Structured walk-arounds and similar observational methods remain valid identification techniques. Restricting identification to historical logs alone creates blind spots where conditions have changed or risks have not yet produced a logged incident.
