Abstract

The current research aims to design a risk assessment approach according to ISO 31000:2018 in the Iraqi Ministry of Interior and its formations (the managers of the TQM divisions and strategic planning departments in some of the ministry’s formations) by identifying, evaluating, treating and preventing risks that surround the strategic plan of the Iraqi Ministry of Interior (2019 -2023), which prevents its full implementation. Through the researcher’s personal interviews with members of the ministerial team in charge of preparing the strategic plan, a set of risks that the team had previously identified were reached. The personal interviews with a number of security leaders in the ministry under study were adopted, as well as direct observation For the workflow in it, the researcher helped to implement the proposed experiment in her study, Therefore, the research came out with many conclusions, the most prominent of which is that the implementation of risk management in the Ministry of Interior was not defined as a job or task that falls on all the formations of the Ministry of the Interior as a result of the belief that the application of risk management is the responsibility of a certain party or individuals.
