Understanding Risk Minimization Laws

Risk minimization should not just be a target but a way of life achieved through following laws and regulations. Experience shows that following provisions reasonably assures safety. However, risk minimization requires a positive attitude, knowledge of laws, and compliance. Regulations provide organization, rational behavior, uniformity, and allow assessment while projecting a nation's quality and behavioral standards abroad. Accidents often result from human error, oversight, or disrespecting warnings and laws rather than ignorance. Ignorance is not a valid excuse and misbehavior or disrespecting laws is not pardonable.

Experience has shown that if the provisions of laws and regulations are strictly followed one

can become reasonably be assured of safety.


However risk minimization cannot be achieved in absence of positive attitude, knowledge
and compliance of laws.
Risk minimization should not be mere a target to achieve but should be way of life and
culture.
If one can really understand the basic reason behind any law or provision he will not like to
disobey the same.
It will be very interesting to know some of the basics behind any regulation.
1. It is compliable by an average individual/organization.
2. It helps to make more organized pattern of behaviour/operation.
3. It increases the rationality.
4. It is not the highest level of expectation but the minimum level of satisfaction
5. It helps to project the status of quality of life and behaviour standard of nation to
6. the outside world.
7. It provides itself an indicator and common reference.
8. It provides tools for assessment.
9. It helps to achieve uniformity.
10. Mention of law or provision is the shortest way to define, narrate and express.
People in every walk of life love to talk above safety and risk minimization. It should be
clearly understood that both the things are not possible to achieve if the provisions of laws
and regulations are disrespected.
The accident or any mishap should not be an invited happening but fortuitous only. The
studies of accidents or mishaps have shown that apart from ignorance most of them are due to
human error; oversight; disrespect to warning and laws.
Ignorance cannot be accepted as an excuse and the misbehavior as also disrespect to law is
not pardonable.
