Risk management is a systematic process for identifying, assessing, and prioritizing risks followed by the coordinated application of resources to minimize, monitor, and control the likelihood and impact of those risks. Safety is the condition of being protected from or unlikely to cause danger, risk, or injury. It encompasses the measures, practices, and precautions designed to prevent accidents, harm, or adverse effects. 1. Identifying Risks Activity-Specific Risks: Each recreational activity has its own set of risks. For example, rock climbing involves falls and equipment failure, while water sports might involve drowning or waterborne illnesses. Environmental Risks: Weather conditions, terrain, and wildlife can all pose risks. For instance, hiking in extreme temperatures or uneven terrain increases the likelihood of accidents. Personal Risks: Participants’ physical fitness, health conditions, and experience levels play a role. An inexperienced climber or someone with a pre-existing condition could be at higher risk. 2. Risk Assessment Evaluate the Risks: Determine the likelihood and potential impact of identified risks. This involves understanding how serious the risk is and how often it could occur. Transforming Communities through Science and Technology Republic of the Philippines NUEVA ECIJA UNIVERSITY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY Cabanatuan City, Nueva Ecija, Philippines ISO 9001:2015 CERTIFIED INSTITUTE OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION Prioritize Risks: Focus on the most significant risks first.

This could include using safety harnesses in climbing or lifeguards in swimming areas. Supervision: In some activities, especially those involving children, proper supervision is essential to ensure safety. 4. Emergency Preparedness First Aid: Have trained personnel available and first aid kits accessible. Participants should know basic first aid procedures. Emergency Plans: Develop and communicate clear emergency procedures. For instance, knowing the location of the nearest hospital or having a plan for evacuation in case of natural disasters. 5. Legal and Insurance Considerations Liability Waivers: Participants often sign waivers to acknowledge risks and accept responsibility. However, waivers may not always protect against negligence. Insurance: Ensure that both the organization and participants have appropriate insurance coverage to handle any potential incidents. 6. Continuous Improvement Feedback: Collect feedback from participants about their safety experiences and any incidents. This helps identify areas for improvement. Regular Reviews: Continuously review and update safety procedures, equipment, and training programs based on new information or incidents. Examples of Risk Management in Specific Activities: Hiking: Check weather conditions before departure, use appropriate footwear, carry sufficient water and food, and stay on marked trails. Camping: Store food securely to avoid attracting wildlife, set up tents away from hazardous areas, and have a fire safety plan.
