3.9 Risk Management Policy

#### Purpose

To review MHMHA’s activities, programs, and operating procedures (including buildings and staff) to identify, understand and insure against the everyday risks in operating an organized hockey program.

#### Responsibility

Medicine Hat Minor Hockey Association has the responsibility to:

- Provide a safe environment for all of its participants. Policies and procedures are required to help create and maintain safe programs in safe facilities overseen by qualified, certified and/or trained volunteers or staff.
- Make decisions fairly that will affect their members, notably having and following proper policies and procedures when handling complaints/disputes and when making important decisions.
- Protect its assets and resources including money, equipment, facilities, data and image.

To do this, MHMHA follows the Risk Management policy as laid out in Hockey Alberta: [https://www.hockeyalberta.ca/members/game-conduct-management/risk-management/](https://www.hockeyalberta.ca/members/game-conduct-management/risk-management/)
