Club Safety and Risk Management
Club safety means following 黑料天堂’s risk management policies to prevent accidents or harm during events. Staying prepared and using good judgment helps keep everyone safe and the campus secure.
For questions involving risk please contact Risk Management.
Risk Assessment and Identification
Assess your club activities and identify all the potentially harmful risks.
- What could go wrong?
- Who could be harmed?
- Could bodily injury, property damage, or other liability result from this activity?
Key Points to Risk Mitigation
- Avoidance – Eliminate the conditions that allow the risk to exist.
- Reduction – Minimize the probability of the risk occurrence and/or the likelihood that it will occur.
- Sharing – Transfer the risk (certificates of insurance, waivers, and hold harmless agreements).
- Acceptance – Acknowledge the existence of the risk but take no action.
