Question 7

1. Discuss what type of courses are considered “high-risk”.

Answer 7

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).

Question 8
