Dangers Of Web Planning

Whilst promoting independence and choice is key to good working practice maintaining a safe and secure environment is also important. Processes to allow risks to be taken include Planning, risk management; monitoring and recording of outcomes by not allowing risks to be taken consequently can lead to institutionalisation and an increase in dependence.

resulting risks to employees and any other person who may be affected by work activities.

Identify hazards, assess risks and risk control measures. Any kind of business you are, there is always the possibility of an accident or damage to someone's health. All work exposes people to hazards. Loads which have to be manually handled; dangerous machinery; toxic substances; electricity; working with display screen equipment or even psychological hazards such as stress. The reason there’s not even more accidents and diseases caused in the work place is because systems of prevention which are in place which have been built up over generations. Most accidents happen because they have not been prevented. Essentially you have to ensure absence of risk to safety and health of employees and others 'so far as is reasonably practicable'.

Since the onset of the first packet switching event that many believe to be beginning of the internet, no other technology besides the printing press has ever transformed the ability to deliver information. Although the internet is used by a large percentage of the civilized world, few Americans realize how vital cyberspace is to our national infrastructure. Today, we are faced with even more threats although it has been a recognized problem since 2009, when President Barrack Obama said “The cyber threat is one of the most serious economic and national security challenges we face as a nation. It’s also clear that we’re not as prepared as we should be, as a government or as a country (Obama, 2009).” Every industry that operates in the United States is dependent on the internet for some aspect of their business. Commerce, transportation, financial institutions, military, as well as industrial control systems are all interconnected. This interconnectedness has created vulnerabilities within their infrastructure that have increasingly become targets of terrorists, script kiddies, foreign governments and hackers of all types.

In his statement to House Committee on Homeland Security, Transportation Security Subcommittee, Administrator Neffenger, identified a need to address vulnerabilities that were uncovered during findings from the Office of the Inspector General (OIG), some of the findings included lack of training proficiency on critical equipment (Neffenger, 2015). Using risk management the TSA identified a vulnerability in their daily operations by uncovering the lack of training and led them assign a risk priority for it based on the consequence (weapons being smuggled onto aircraft) and the threat of it being used by an adversary. Training is critical resource in risk management. When a risk is identified it is important to decide if funded training will help mitigate the risk to a negligible level. There is no point to having the most cutting edge technology in support of homeland security if the qualified personnel are not in place to use them. If an agency has been allocated the newest 2017 model piece of equipment and it has been deemed essential to mitigate new threats. How important is that piece of equipment if all the staff members are only certified and proficient on the 2015 model? With both resources being allocated and qualified personnel in place a new threat has emerged in the information age.

recognizing dangers incorporates discovering everything and circumstances that could possibly make hurt people. Risks generally rise up out of the going with parts of work:

Software Decision and Negotiation. With the understanding of what is needed from the software, it will be time to start shopping for the best programs that can fill the needs of the staff. The office manager will be in charge of finding two to three of these software programs that will fill the needs. These programs should not only hold the necessary tools, but they should include good reviews, customer service, and competitive pricing. After the programs have been found, the office manager needs to call all three of the companies and see if any are willing to negotiate or offer special discounting for selecting their software. Once the best software and deal is found the office manager needs to schedule a time for their company to come in and install the software and provide a training lesson in how to operate the system. The payment for the system will also need to be arranged.

If the system were to get infected with a virus it could have a bad impact on the mission critical business processes because it could lead to issues with important customer data and slow down/stop production for customer products. This will in turn affect the company's

Safety is the most important detail on any given work site. No matter what the task may be or the conditions of your surroundings, safety takes precedents. We need to consider that taking caution means knowing our routine, developing an action plan, using proper tools, understand personal and team limitations, and always pursue high awareness. We want to know our job inside and out so that we can prevent a bad day. We need to be proactive!

By not investing the possibilities that they may face nonstandard events in the future, they set themselves and those in their charge up for issues. Supervisors who are able to look ahead at impending issues will be able to react quicker and have better results. Even worse is the tendency for reactive supervisors to become over reactive supervisors. Over reaction may come in many forms but all will share one common trend, they will be detrimental to those they affect. Close-minded supervisors and those that blindly enforce the standard are similar in nature but differ in reason and drive. Close-mindedness is a product of refusing to see another’s point of view where as someone blindly enforcing standards may be doing so with all the best intentions but may not be aware of the benefits of pushing for a change to the standard. Of all the supervisors for a safety system, the most burdening is one that only identifies issues and shortcomings but never presents a solution. The impact this style of supervision has on those under it cannot be understated it is morally exhausting. Workers who constantly have to wade through issue after issue with an apparent abandonment from the supervisors that never produce a solution will begin to get sloppy, apathetic, and rush just to be done with

Increased safety incidents due to a lack of thought and caring from staff when in the workplace

Positive and negative influences. The root causes of most incidents result from lack of attention or from counterproductive attitudes and behaviors or awareness, attitudes and behaviors of other people. It can develop a sense of false security regarding their ability to control or protect themselves as well as the employer as they carry out their work. Ensuring all employees are properly trained will keep the negative influences to a minimum. Companies must keep in mind that even though there business is number one priority, its not just about the numbers at the end of the day. Security plays a vital part to ensure those numbers are at expected levels if they want to continue to stay in business for long. It is a matter of balancing all management key influences to run a profitable and reliable business.
