We need to acknowledge that we are accepting very high risks with our international locations. (We need to write out our definitions of what we are willing to risk and how we are deciding what makes a location in the level of risk below) . 

Reliant's Risk Levels

• Basic Threat: Any moderate risk factors limited or temporary. Free movement, free access to basic goods, free expression of ministry/reason in the country, stable government and economy. Easy entry requirements for all Americans. (ex. Canada)
• Moderate Threat: Several moderate risk factors and/or a high risk factor recent, imminent, or ongoing are at play. 
• High Threat: Several high risks recent, imminent, or ongoing and/or an extreme risk factor are at play. See International Risk Tolerance)
• Extreme Threat: Several extreme risk factors under the extreme category are recent, imminent, or ongoing. (Reliant does not send field staff to extreme threat locations.)

Reliant Risk Tolerance

Threshold-which of these risk tolerances pushes you into the risk level: all of them, one of them, etc. Having taken all of these risk factors into consideration and evaluated we created this threat level for your location (country/city).

These risk levels will then determine what path the location needs to take with what we require verses what we recommend based on the threat level. The following pages explain areas that could be divided into different actions/requirements based on the threat level. 

• Location Documentation
• Communication Devices
• Item Preparation
• Crisis Training
• Shelter in Place
• Places of Refuge
• Crisis Readiness Levels
• Evacuation Trigger Points for Action
• Evacuation Preparedness Plans
• Cover Company (used with high level threat)
• Conditions for Disavowal of Personnel
