Then why did they work as hard as they did to get a job which clearly entails exactly that?

Not everyone looks through the world through your lens, nor mine. Each person a way of seeing how evil needs to be addressed. Sometimes, it is through rhetoric; sometimes through lending a helping hand; sometimes by laying down a whipping. We need folks good at each case.

As to risk management, "will (fill in bad thing hee) happen on my mission" you have to believe that in each mission you undertake, you will get it right. More often than not you will. When things go wrong, which the law against zero defects demands will eventually happen, you try to make sure "it" doesn't happen again.

But you don't hide in a corner, paralyzed with fear, because something might go wrong today. You go forth and do your darnedest to get it right.

Unless you are a sheep.

Sheep are neither governed nor led: they are owned, ruled, sheared, and slaughtered.
