Risk communicators only need to understand the output of risk analysis, not the input or the work of risk assessors and managers.  

Uncertainty: Lack or incompleteness of information.  

Conflict is inevitable in risk management due to the increasing complexity and diversity of the world, human nature, and limited resources.  

Uncertainty is not a common factor in modern decision making.  

Risk communication is a one-way exchange of information.    

Risk management is a process of problem identification, requesting information, evaluating risks, and initiating action to identify, evaluate, select, implement, monitor, and modify actions taken to alter levels of unacceptable risk to acceptable or tolerable levels.  

Safety has been defined in legislative and administrative frameworks as “reasonable certainty of no harm.”  

Knowledge uncertainty refers to uncertainty about the linkages between inputs and outputs in a system.  

The risk manager is not responsible for creating the risk profile.  

Risk analysis is not useful for organizations that require short-term feedback to determine whether their risk management decisions were effective.
