Managing various risks is an integral part of every organization or company. A big challenge each organization faces is how to make the right decisions to manage various risks as efficient as possible.
Basing on Slovenian and foreign literature, the diploma thesis presents risk management, as well as the importance of risk assessment and risk analysis. Risk management is presented with specific cases in the selected organization—Slovenian Railways—after a natural disaster in 2014. For the purpose of the diploma thesis existing studies on this subject have been studied as well as an interview has been conducted.
The purpose of the diploma thesis is to present how important it is for an organization to manage risks and to illustrate the methods by which different risks can be controlled. Insights of various authors, summarized in the diploma thesis, can help readers to interpret different terms relating to risks and to recognize the very course of risk management. The thesis presents what risk management is, who it benefits and when it is used. As mentioned before, all findings are shown on a real case of the Slovenian Railways, when the infrastructure of the railways in Slovenia has been heavily damaged by glaze ice a few years ago.
Risk management is a very important part of every organization, which is also the key message of the diploma thesis.
