Abstract

Risk & Critical Control Management (RCCM) uses the latest applied research to review participants’ understanding and application of risk management systems and the development and integration of critical control systems. The course is designed for experienced technical managers, HSE managers, government managers and officers, and contractors in the resources sector to support them to effectively address and improve governance and decision-making.

Critical Control Management (CCM) is the key focus of the safety guidelines developed by the International Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM) where it is described as “an integral part of risk management and aids in identifying the priority risks in a company and implementing critical controls to prevent an incident or mitigate its impact”.

RCCM will help participants familiarize themselves with the latest knowledge in risk and critical control management (CCM) and become proficient with the skills and tools that will allow them to apply CCM in their workplace.

The course features:

• Reviews of risk management system requirements
• Risk analysis through quality bowtie analyses
• Control and critical control selection processes
• Reporting on, and understanding of, critical control performance
• Verifying and maintaining critical controls
• Challenges faced when implementing the CCM approach

The knowledge is supported by worked examples to establish the practical application of the principles introduced. These practice examples will facilitate the incorporation of CCM into the workplace by demonstrating the change in focus essential to successful CCM.
