Which type of risks includes issues related to capacity and IT?

  1. Financial risks

  2. Process risks

  3. Environmental risks

  4. Hazard risks

The correct answer is: Process risks

Process risks pertain to issues that arise within the operational aspects of an organization. This includes the management of capacity, which is crucial for meeting production demands and ensuring efficient operations, as well as information technology (IT) risks that are inherent in the use of systems and technology in business processes. Capacity issues can lead to bottlenecks or insufficient resources to meet customer demand, directly impacting the supply chain. On the IT side, risks can include system failures, data breaches, or integration challenges that can disrupt business processes. Identifying and managing these process risks is vital for maintaining smooth operations and achieving strategic objectives. The other types of risks mentioned do not specifically address capacity and IT concerns. Financial risks generally relate to monetary issues, environmental risks focus on ecological impacts, and hazard risks involve physical or safety risks, which are distinct from process-related challenges.
