The Economist Risk management is a topic on the agenda of an increasing number of organizations around the world for the last 20 years or so. In fact, due to the large number of corporate scandals, risk management has become central in the boardrooms of large enterprises around the world as some stock exchanges in fact demand risk management in the corporate governance work. Despite this, we have a financial crisis that abundantly illustrated that risks were not properly understood also in corporations that supposedly were conducting risk management. While risk management in corporate governance is a relatively new idea, we have been managing risk in engineering for decades. Yet, engineering disasters appears every now and then often indicating (posteriori) lack of, or at least insufficient, risk management. There are many other cases in all aspects of human society that could have been mentioned here, as well, but the point is that managing risks is difficult. This illustrates further important facts about risk it is pervasive, it is timeless and it is inevitable. The pervasiveness and timelessness of risk means that it is found in all kinds of scholarly disciplines and human endeavors. An important side effect is that it is often slowly emerging, which makes it even harder to address disasters are rarely due to a single mistake or single source of problems, but due to a complex interplay of factors that by themselves may not have resulted in a disaster. Furthermore, because it is inevitable, risk has been addressed in a large number of ways. This means that basic terminology is still not unified. Depending on whom you ask, and what background they have, you will get different definitions and approaches towards risk management. The ISO 31000 Risk Management standard has therefore been developed to provide principles and generic guidelines on risk management (without intending to promote uniformity of risk management across organizations). Yet, many find the standard unsatisfactory and therefore find their own ways towards risk management. In this book, we therefore present a flavor of current advances in risk management theory as well as some cases with no attempt to present a unified theory of risk management. X Preface The book is divided into four, broad topics each covering an entire part of the book. The first topic is Health, Safety and the Environment (HSE) in which we have seven contributions. The opening chapter is written by R.I. Moraru and it concerns the identification of effective practices, processes and structures in occupational health and safety risk management. The authors identifies and argues that there is an urgent need for the formulation and implementation of a new management framework for occupational hazards; one that is appropriate for the new economic and occupational structure of work. Next, in Chapter 2, A. Haddad, E. Galante, R. Caldas and C. Morgado focus on the development and usage of a risk assessment methodology called Hazard Matrix (HM) and its application in Health, Safety and Environmental Management (HSE). The HM is a prioritization methodology suitable to be used in the analysis phase of a risk management program. The authors argue that the HM in HSE is a very powerful methodology to highlight critical hazards and sectors/areas in a business unit or company under study. In Chapter 3, P. K. Marhavilas and D.E. Koulouriotis present a new risk assessment framework based on the combination of the deterministic FTA (“fault-tree-analysis”) technique and the stochastic TRF (“time at risk failure)” model, and they apply it on an industrial worksite to test its usefulness. Then, in Chapter 4, G. Improta, A. Fratini and M. Triassi present an example on a possible design and implementation of a Health Technology Assessment (HTA) protocol for the classification of hospitals or health facilities equipment, realized by combining the classic HTA concepts with hierarchic clustering techniques in a multidisciplinary analysis of requirements, cost, impact of logistics, technology associated risks. Chapter 5 is written by R. Manigat, F. Allix, C. Frochot and J.C. André. They chose to develop a case study on nanomedicine based on nanotechnology, with integrated inputs from each individual of the multidisciplinary team (photo chemist conducting research in basic sciences, risk management specialist, public health medical specialist), in order to develop an interdisciplinary expertise open to large societal needs. The objective of the 6 th chapter, written by A. Castagnoli, M. Adversi, G. Innocenti, G.F. Di Nino and R. M. Melotti, is to update the state of the art on Post-Operative Residual Curarization (PORC) and risk management of patients with persistent neuromuscular blockade. They start by careful reviewing the literature using electronic databases, analyzing original papers, systematic reviews and guidelines and end up by suggesting possible ways to correctly prevent or manage PORC.
