Give a real life example of mitigating a risk, avoiding a risk, transferring a risk and retaining a risk.
nikitadnepr [17]

Explanation:

Let us understand the terms with examples:

Avoiding a risk: A risk which is pre-identified and which would create huge loss for the ongoing task can be avoided.

For example:

If there is a deadline for a project and there are only few more days to complete, then planning a training program on soft skill will be a riskier one. So training program can be planned sometimes later, thus avoiding risk.

Transferring a risk: Normally this will be mentioned in the project contract. If there is an issue and the employees of the company are already filled with work, then the issue can be outsourced so now the risk is transferred.

Retaining a risk: You can retain the risk if the impact is negligible. Absence of a software developer for 10 days. So the Project manager need not worry about finding an alternate person for that 10 days alone, which might lead to less understanding of flow and may raise more errors if multiple resource work on the content.

Mitigating a risk: The risk will be avoided by taking some preventive measures. For example, if a smart board needs to be sold, a sales team cannot give a good demo hence the sale of product percentage is less. So to avoid this, a training can be arranged to sales team so that it will boost up sales. Others who were absent on training, ll sale less but the impact is minimum.

By offering more generous unemployment insurance programs, European countries can expect Group of answer choices longer periods
natulia [17]

Answer:

Longer periods of unemployment for their workers.

Explanation:

Unemployment is when people who are willing and able work do not have jobs

Types of unemployment

structural unemployment is an unemployment that occurs as a result of changes in the economy. These changes can be as a result of changes in technology, polices or competition. Structural unemployment tends to be permanent.  

Frictional unemployment:  the period of time a person is unemployed from the period he leaves his current job and the time he gets another job. Eg. when a real estate agent who leaves a job in Texas and searches for a similar, higher-paying job in California.

Voluntary unemployment: e.g. worker at a fast-food restaurant who quits work and attends college.

Cyclical unemployment: it occurs as a result of fluctuations in the economy. Unemployment would be high in a downturn and low in a boom  

If a government gives generous unemployment insurance programs, there would be less incentive to find jobs because one of the main reasons why people would want to work is to have money. If the government provides generous pay to the unemployed, there would be less motivation to work and unemployment increases
