Horizon Scan Report: Considering the Top Threats for 2022
The Business Continuity Institute has released its 2022 Horizon Scan report, which looks at the top risks and threats that have faced organizations over the past 12 months and those that are expected to sit at the top of the agenda over the coming years. Participants for the report listed non-occupational disease as the most impactful event for 2021 and it is once again the largest concern for organizations this year. A concern is that practitioners frequently focus on those risks that have occurred in the previous year rather than considering the broader risk environment.
