Conducting an effective Risk Assessment is a daunting task no matter how often you may have done it. However, if it's your first time then your anxiety level is likely to be an order of magnitude higher. Although what we are going to discuss in the video is not a magic elixir for reducing your anxiety, it may help you to put things in proper perspective. The silver bullet in a nutshell is that there is "no such thing as a perfect Risk Assessment" and there is no compliance requirement for one. The objective is not perfection, but rather the objective is to establish a baseline that you can continue to improve on over time.
