Zorluk: OrtaMethods of Handling Risk

Review the risk management actions taken by various entities in the scenarios below. Match each specific action to the fundamental method of handling risk (STARR) it best illustrates.

  • A regional private school permanently cancels its tackle football program to completely eliminate the exposure to severe head injury claims.Avoidance
  • A cold-storage logistics company installs advanced temperature-monitoring sensors and backup generators to minimize the chance of inventory spoilage.Reduction
  • An independent graphic designer purchases a professional liability policy to shift the financial consequences of potential copyright infringement lawsuits.Transfer
  • A restaurant chain sets aside a specific portion of its monthly profits into a dedicated reserve fund to pay out-of-pocket for minor equipment breakdowns.Retention
  • A group of independent physicians forms a reciprocal insurer, pooling their resources to collectively cover medical malpractice claims any member might face.Sharing

Cevap

The correct mapping pairs each real-world decision with its corresponding fundamental method of handling risk (STARR). The school canceling the program represents Avoidance. The logistics company installing sensors represents Reduction. The designer buying a policy represents Transfer. The restaurant chain establishing a reserve fund represents Retention. The physicians forming a reciprocal insurer represents Sharing.
Each real-world action strictly maps to one of the five STARR methods of handling risk: Sharing (pooling risk among a group), Transfer (buying insurance or using contracts), Avoidance (eliminating the exposure entirely), Reduction (lowering the severity or frequency), and Retention (self-insuring or accepting the risk out-of-pocket).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the private school scenario.
The action is to permanently cancel the program, eliminating the exposure entirely.
Eliminating a risk entirely aligns with Avoidance.
2
Analyze the cold-storage company scenario.
The action involves taking physical steps (installing sensors) to lessen the chance of loss.
Taking steps to mitigate a risk without eliminating it aligns with Reduction.
3
Analyze the graphic designer scenario.
The action involves purchasing an insurance policy.
Moving the financial burden to an insurance company aligns with Transfer.
4
Analyze the restaurant chain scenario.
The action involves saving money in a reserve fund to pay for losses internally.
Assuming financial responsibility for a loss internally aligns with Retention.
5
Analyze the independent physicians scenario.
The action involves pooling resources with others in the same profession.
Distributing risk across a formalized group of individuals with similar exposures aligns with Sharing.
