101 START::::::::::Identifying hazards Pg. 7 - Step 1 in the process. A hazard is any
condition with the potential to negatively impact
mission accomplishment or cause injury, death, or
property damage. Hazard identification is
foundation of the entire RM process. If a hazard is
not identified, it cannot be controlled. The effort
expended in identifying hazards will have a
multiplier effect. Therefore, this step should be
allotted a larger portion of the available time. There
are three basic actions to be completed in this
step:
(1) Analyze the Mission.
(2) List the Hazards.
(3) Determine the Hazard Root Cause.
,Assessing hazards pg 8-10 - Step 2 in the process. For each hazard
identified, determine the associated degree of risk
in terms of probability and severity. The result of
the risk assessment is a prioritized list of hazards,
which ensures that controls are first identified for
the most serious threat to mission or task
accomplishment. The hazard list is intended for use
as a guide to the relative priority of risks involved
and not as an absolute order to follow.
(1) Severity.
(2) Probability.
(3) Complete Risk Assessment.
(4) Risk Assessment Pitfalls.
Making risk decisions pg 10-13 - Step 3 in the process. There are three
basic actions, which ultimately lead to making
informed risk decisions: identifying control options;
determining the effect of these controls on the
hazard or risk; and, ultimately deciding how to
proceed.
(1) Identify Control Options.
(2) Determine Control Effects.
(3) Make Risk Decisions.
,Implementing controls pg 13-14 - Implement Controls (Step 4). Once the
risk control decisions are made, the next step is
implementation. This requires that the plan is clearly
communicated to all the involved personnel,
accountability is established, and necessary
support is provided. Careful documentation of
each step in the
RM process facilitates risk communication and the
rational
processes behind the RM decisions.
Supervising pg 14 - Supervise and review involves determining
the effectiveness of risk controls throughout the
mission or task. This involves three actions:
monitoring the
effectiveness of risk controls; determining the need
for further assessment of all or a portion of the
mission or task due to an unanticipated change;
and capturing lessons learned, both
positive and negative.

considered "high-risk". High-Risk Training. All basic or advanced, individual
or collective training in a traditional
or non-traditional environment which exposes the
crew, staff, students and/or assets to the
potential risks of death, permanent disability, or
loss during training. For the purpose of this
instruction, an assignment of any risk assessment
code (RAC) of 1 or 2, as well
as an assignment of RAC 3 in Severity Level I
(death or loss of asset) or Severity Level II
(severe injury, damage), although the "Probability"
of an injury or loss is "Unlikely (D)" or "May
occur-in-time (C)," must be considered high-risk
training. A RAC 3 in Severity Level III (minor
injury, damage) or Severity Level IV (minimal threat)
should receive a cognizant authority review
to confirm the assessment and reduce any
ambiguity about the subjectivity of the assessment
(i.e., an event scored as a C, II is a RAC 3 and is a
high-risk event, while an event scored as B,
III is also a RAC 3, not high-risk by definition, but
should be closely reviewed by cognizant authority
due to the frequency of minor injuries or minimal
threats to ensure that the proper
"Severity Level" assigned is not really an A, III - RAC
2 due to the interpretation of "Likely"
versus "Probable" by the assessor during the risk
assessment).
