The procedures for risk management typically follow a structured framework, which includes the following steps:

  Risk Identification: The first step is to identify and define the risks that may affect the economy, infrastructure and society. This involves analyzing various sources such as historical data, expert opinions, industry reports and emerging trends. 

 Risk Assessment: Once the risks are identified, a thorough assessment is conducted to determine their potential impact and likelihood of occurrence. This involves analyzing the severity of each risk, evaluating the vulnerability of systems and infrastructure and estimating the potential financial, social and environmental consequences. 

 Risk Mitigation: After assessing the risks, strategies are developed to mitigate or reduce their impact. This may involve adopting regulatory frameworks, implementing safety standards, enhancing security measures and investing in infrastructure development.
