Risk Review Settings

Decide how often your organisation reviews risks at each level. RTOSafe uses these limits whenever someone sets a risk’s next review date, so higher risks come back for review sooner.

Before You Start

You’ll need access to Risks to open these settings, and Read/Write access to Risks to change them.

Set How Often to Review

Go to Settings → Risk Register. Under How often to review, set the number of months for each level.

Unless you change them, Critical risks are reviewed at least every month, High every 3 months, Medium every 6 months and Low every 12 months.

These set the latest next review date for a risk at that level. People can always choose an earlier date.

If a shorter interval would leave some risks due for review too late, the save button tells you how many, for example Save and flag 3 risks. Saving flags those risks for reassessment.

Switch to the New Risk Matrix

If your organisation is still on the original risk matrix, you’ll see An updated risk matrix is available on the register. The new matrix rates high-impact risks higher.

Select Review the change, or scroll to New Risk Matrix in Risk Register settings. RTOSafe shows which ratings would change level and how many risks it would flag for reassessment.

Select Switch to the new matrix when you’re ready. You can’t switch back.

What Happens Next

Flagged risks show Needs reassessment on the register. Record a new assessment for each one.

Common Issues

I don't see the New Risk Matrix section

Your organisation is already using the new matrix, so there’s nothing to switch.
