Below is the uncorrected machine-read text of this chapter, intended to provide our own search engines and external engines with highly rich, chapter-representative searchable text of each book. Because it is UNCORRECTED material, please consider the following text as a useful but insufficient proxy for the authoritative book pages.

118 APPENDIX N Risk Register The Risk Register is an electronic tool that can be created by airports to track risks and risk control actions. It is a database where most of the information obtained through the SRM process is itemized. Smaller air- ports can use electronic spreadsheets to create a Risk Register. ACRP Report 74: Application of Enterprise Risk Management at Airports (2012) identifies key information that should be available in a Risk Register. • Risk Number: This is a numerical ID allocated for each risk. Every risk should be given a unique number and not a letter or symbol. • Risk ID: This is an alphabetical reference that will be used to illustrate risks on the risk map. • Every risk should be given a unique Risk ID. Once all letters have been used, start a second set of the alphabet; e.g., A2, B2, and C2. Please note: only each risk, not every cause and consequence, should be allocated a Risk Number and Risk ID. • Risk: Record the risk in this column. • Causes: Record the risk causes in this column; record all causes in the same cell. • Consequences: Record the risk consequences in this column; record all consequences in the same cell. • Risk Owner: Record the name of the risk owner in this column. • Risk Category: Record the risk category in this column. • Inherent Impact: Record the inherent risk impact score in this column, using the Impact Assessment Criteria. You will only be able to record a number between 1 and 5. • Inherent Likelihood: Record the inherent risk likelihood score in this column, using the Likelihood Assessment Criteria. You will only be able to record a number between 1 and 5. • Inherent Risk Score: This will be automatically calculated. Do not enter any data in this column. • Current Controls: Record the controls that are in place to mitigate the risk. • Control Assessment: Use the drop-down menu to assess whether the effectiveness of the current controls is considered poor, average, or good. Use the Control Assessment Criteria to guide this. • Residual Impact: Record the residual risk impact score in this column, using the Impact Assessment Criteria. You will only be able to record a number between 1 and 5. • Residual Likelihood: Record the residual risk likelihood score in this column, using the Likelihood Assessment Criteria. You will only be able to record a number between 1 and 5. • Residual Risk Score: This will be automatically calculated. Do not enter any data in this column. A Hazard Log Template suggested by the European Strategic Safety Initiative (ECAST), SMS WG, Guidance on Hazards Identification is presented in Table N1. Smaller airports may opt for a simplified Risk Register that can be created in an electronic spreadsheet. An example of this type of template suggested by the Civil Aviation Authority of New Zealand (NZ CAA, Aviation Risk Management—an Introduction—Booklet 4, June 2013) is shown in Figure N1.
