Who this risk register log is for
This log is for project managers, business owners and safety leads who want to spot and manage risks early. It suits projects of any size and organizations that need clear records for audits or boards. It turns worries into a list of risks with owners and actions. It also suits event organizers and small business owners planning a big change, such as a move or new product.
How to use your risk register log
Use the matrix to rate each risk by likelihood and impact. Record risks on the register with an owner. Give major risks a detail page with causes and responses. Log issues that actually happen. Review the register regularly and track action items until each risk is reduced or closed. Assign every risk to one person so it is never forgotten. Share the register with your team and update it whenever something changes. Close risks that no longer apply, and note why.

What is a risk matrix?
A grid that rates risks by how likely and how serious they are. Other pages in the 11-page risk register log include "Risk Scoring Guide", "Risk Register" and "Risk Detail", so related notes stay together. Download it free, print only the pages you need and add more copies of any page later.
How often should I review risks?
Monthly, or at each project milestone. Look for the "Review Log" page in the 11-page risk register log. Print the A4 or US Letter PDF as often as you need, or write in the digital version on a tablet. Every page is undated, so you can start any day and reprint a page whenever it fills up.
Can I track issues too?
