Personnel risks are among the risks that enterprises have to face. Identifying, analysing, and preventing them is a crucial part of enterprise risk management. Compared to other types of enterprise risks, personnel risks are usually not a top priority and the tools of their analysis and methods leading to their minimization do not have a systematic character although the consequences of personnel risks are often severe. Personnel risks are also often the cause of issues attributed to other factors. Personnel risks can be usually prevented in connection with relatively low costs. The goal of the paper is to highlight the main types, sources, and concrete causes of personnel risks and to examine the possibilities and tools of their prevention.
