Finally, the authors synthesised their guidance frameworks into a set of 10 decision-making principles for risk management, including risk communication:
- Do more good than harm (beneficence, nonmalificence).
- Ensure an equitable distribution of risk (equity).
- Fair process of decision making (fairness, natural justice).
- Seek optimal use of limited risk management resources (utility).
- Promise no more risk management than can be delivered (honesty).
- Impose no more risk than you would tolerate yourself (the Golden Rule).
- Be cautious in the face of uncertainty (‘better safe than sorry’).
- Foster informed risk decision making for all stakeholders (autonomy).
- Risk management processes must be flexible and evolutionary to be open to new knowledge and understanding (evolution, evaluation, iterative process).
- The complete elimination of risk is not possible (life is not risk free)
