What Is ISO 31022?

ISO 31022:2020 is the international standard for the management of legal risk — providing guidelines for organisations to identify, assess, treat, and monitor legal risks as part of an integrated enterprise risk management framework. It builds directly on ISO 31000:2018 (the parent risk management standard) and translates its principles, framework, and process into a practical approach for legal risk specifically — including regulatory, contractual, litigation, intellectual property, and policy-related exposures.

Unlike most ISO standards, ISO 31022 is a guidance standard (not intended for certification), but it is increasingly used by general counsel, compliance officers, boards, regulators, and assurance professionals as the recognised reference for managing legal risk. It is widely applied alongside certifiable standards such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 27001, ISO 37001 (Anti-Bribery), and ISO 37301 (Compliance Management) to provide a complete governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) framework.

Frequently Asked Questions

•       What format are the documents in, and how are they delivered? All documents are provided as fully editable MS Word (.docx) and MS Excel (.xlsx) files. After completing your purchase, you'll receive an instant download link delivered directly to your email inbox — no waiting, no shipping.

•       How long does it take to implement a toolkit? Most organisations can customise and deploy a full toolkit within 3–4 weeks. This is a significant reduction compared to building documentation from scratch, which typically takes 3 months or more.

•       Will these documents help us with assessment and assurance reviews? Yes. ISO 31022 is a guidance standard rather than a certifiable one, but every document is structured to align with its requirements — supporting self-assessment, internal audit, board-level assurance, and integration with certifiable management systems such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 27001, ISO 37301, and ISO 37001.

•       What's the relationship between ISO 31022 and ISO 31000? ISO 31022:2020 provides guidelines specifically for managing legal risk, building on the principles, framework, and process defined in ISO 31000:2018. Our toolkit is fully compatible with the ISO 31000 framework and can be used to extend an existing ISO 31000-aligned risk management system into the legal risk domain.

•       Can we edit the templates to suit our organisation? Absolutely. All documents are fully editable and built to be customised to your organisation's specific context, legal exposure, and terminology. The toolkit gives you the professional framework — you tailor the details.

•       Are the toolkits up to date with the current versions of the standards? Yes. We monitor changes to international standards and update our toolkits accordingly, so you're always working with accurate, current documentation recognised by accrediting bodies worldwide.

•       Are the documents compatible with standard software? Yes. All documents are created in Microsoft Office (Word and Excel), ensuring compatibility with the latest versions of both applications. No specialist software is required.

•       What support is included after purchase? Every purchase includes lifetime unlimited email support from our ISO-certified consultants. There is no time limit and no cap on questions — we support you through implementation and beyond.

•       Can I request a custom toolkit or a standard that isn't listed? Yes. We can build custom ISO documentation toolkits and training materials on request. Contact us with your requirements and our team will respond within 24 hours.
