Welcome to CCA Human Capital Risk Management.
Human capital risk—what is it? 
According to a recent research report from The Conference Board, human capital risk is defined 
as the workforce factors and people practices that can a!ect business performance. 
Simply put, human capital risk (HCR) is the risk associated with your organization’s greatest asset—its people. 
It is the risk that your workforce’s ability to perform will be undermined by external and internal factors. 
External factors include market forces such as increasing regulation, emerging technologies, and competition, 
plus macro environmental forces like the economy, natural disasters, and the political climate. Internal factors 
include your organizational culture, leadership capability, and your people management practices. 
Human capital risk can be found in every aspect of your business that your employees touch. If people 
are involved, human capital risk exists. Much of the current discussion surrounding HCR focuses on the risks 
limited to talent gaps and succession planning. Enterprise risk management (ERM) initiatives are just beginning 
to incorporate this talent risk management (TRM) view of HCR. However, there is another layer of risk that 
is currently overlooked and under-served by traditional ERM and TRM—the possibility that your people will 
behave in ways that put the organization at risk. 
Why is managing human capital risk (HCR) important? 
Let’s face some realities. Hiring anyone has inherent risks. It comes with the territory. Employees, even 
good ones, can lose their way and become vulnerable to bad habits, or disruptive and even dangerous 
behavior under the wrong circumstances. External forces can change the playing field and create tension 
and dissension among the ranks. Organizational factors can encourage or facilitate the wrong kinds 
of behavior. When these risk factors are ignored, they can lead to counterproductive or destructive 
behavior that negatively impacts business performance and creates a toxic environment for employees. 
What are the costs of HCR? 
Research shows that aberrant workplace behavior costs businesses billions of dollars, damages company 
reputations and ability to recruit, and erodes employee health, engagement, morale, and productivity. 
The cost and prevalence of these behaviors are staggering: 
t Theft, embezzlement, & fraud cost $50–$200 billion/year 
t Workplace violence costs $34 billion/year 
t 18,000 assaults & 20 murders occur each week 
in US workplaces, a!ecting 2 million people/year 
t 95% of US businesses are a!ected
