Government employers are being urged to assess the improvements being made in embedded risk management within public sector organisations.

Last year ALARM - the National Forum for Risk Management in the Public Sector - and the District Audit undertook its first survey on embedded risk management.

ALARM now wants public sector bodies to complete its new survey to measure progress two years on.

Retiring ALARM chairman David Fleetwood said: "The follow up survey links closely to the original work and will be invaluable in helping us to see what real progress has been made in moving risk management forward to take its rightful place on the corporate and strategic agenda of public sector organisations."

John Shirring, director of Service Development at the Audit Commission, said: "The survey will offer us some valuable perspectives on current progress in the fast moving risk management environment as we move forward with the wider governance agenda."
