Project Management Professional (PMP) — Question 90

A company was awarded a project in a dangerous location that poses several high-level risks for employees. Help is needed to tram the employees on major safety and health factors. The project is ongoing and uses a hybrid approach. The project will be conducted in multiple sites, with several development iterations running in parallel.
How should the project manager handle this situation?

Answer options

• A. Allocate and use part of the project's contingency reserves for training purposes
• B. Negotiate a contract and form a partnership with a local authority for medical and security support services
• C. Perform a retrospective and update the risk register and resource management plan regarding the necessary budget for training
• D. Hire only local resources who are aware of the territory's hazards, providing employment to the local community

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer, C, is appropriate because updating the risk register and resource management plan ensures that the training needs are formally recognized and budgeted. Options A and B do not directly address the systematic approach needed for training, while option D focuses on hiring practices rather than the immediate need for training on safety and health factors.
