Answer: Transfer!
Avoidance: Remove the possibility of danger and injury by eliminating the activity.
Transfer: Move the risk to others through waivers, insurance policies, etc.
Reduction: Modify the risks by removing or altering part of the activity.
Retention: Often, there are risks that will be retained, especially if the removal of the risk would eliminate a potential benefit (e.g. no risk will occur if exercise is elimintated bu then no health benefits can be accrued).
Implementation: Institute the plan
Evaluation: Assess outcome of risk management endeavors.
