Risk Management Policy

We are pleased to announce that The UWI Risk Management Policy was approved by the University F&GPC at its meeting held on October 26, 2022. The purpose of the Policy is to provide guidance regarding the management of risk to support the attainment of our strategic goals and objectives. 

While establishing the risk management function across our University system is still a work in progress, it is important that we are all familiar with the terminology, roles and responsibilities within our approved Risk Management Policy. The Policy formally establishes our approach for the effective management of risk within our University system—for which everyone has responsibility—and this requires collaboration across all UWI campuses and departments.  

Further, the University’s Risk Management Framework and Procedures Manual forms an integral part of this approved Policy, and can be accessed through the intranet.  

You are therefore encouraged to please take some time to read The UWI Risk Management Policy.
