DuPont Sustainable Solutions Unveils Findings from 2017 Global Operational Risk Survey of Corporate Leaders
WILMINGTON, DE — A survey by DuPont Sustainable Solutions found that more than one-third of business executives surveyed believe their company has very significant or even critical gaps in their operational risk management processes, suggesting that many executives are facing challenges to identify the most important risks in their operations and lack adequate systems in their companies to address risk.
The survey findings were presented during the DSS Executive Forum on Extracting Value from Operational Risk Management, which took place at the XXI World Congress on Safety & Health at Work in Singapore. The International Labour Organization (ILO) reported at the Congress that an estimated 2.78 million workers die annually due to work-related injuries and illnesses.
