In Simpler Terms… #
Protecting against business risks means making sure that the company doesn’t get into any trouble that could hurt the business or make it stop working. Just like we wear helmets when we ride our bikes to keep us safe, the company also does things to keep the business safe. They make a special plan called a “risk management plan” that helps them avoid things that could be bad for the business. They also keep an eye out for any changes that could hurt the business and make sure they have enough money to keep going even if something bad happens. It’s like when we put on our seat belts in the car to stay safe in case we get into an accident. The company does the same thing, but for their business.
