Q

ARGUS

A

NAV CANADA’s confidential reporting program that allows employees to report concerns about latent safety hazards.

21
Q

SECURITAS

A

The Transportation Safety Board’s confidential reporting program which allows anyone to report potentially unsafe acts or conditions relating to the Canadian transportation system that would not normally be reported through other channels.

22
Q

OSI

A

Operational Safety Investigation: conducted solely for the purpose of advancing safety. OSIs are essential to ensure the integrity of the air navigation system and reduce the possibility of occurrences being repeated. There are two levels: OSI 1 and OSI 2.

23
Q

Preliminary investigation

A

To find out if an OI has occured.

24
Q

What are the manager’s responsibilities when an OSI occurs?

A

Te remove personnel from position(if necessary) and notify them in writing
Conduct a preliminary investigation
If OI: collect, retain, and secure all pertinent date and initiate the appropriate reporting process.

25
Q

CISM

A

Critical Incident Stress Management: Learning to deal with and talking with peers about any incident that has sufficient emotional power to cause an employee a strong and overwhelming reaction.

26
Q

What are the two types of investigations?

A

Operational Safety Investigation

Safety Investigation

27
Q

OSI process

A
  • Gather, preserve, and examine all of the facts
  • Document all pertinent findings
  • Identify the errors
  • Determine and describe the outcome
  • Publish a report to assist in preventing reoccurrence.
28
Q

Post OSI procedures

A

ATS evaluations and investigations will:

  • Prepare the final report
  • Prepare correspondence for manager’s signature
  • Dispatch the report
  • Prepare and retain a ‘working file’ for all typed and hand written correspondence
  • File and maintain all OSI records
29
Q

How long does the manager have after receiving an OSI report to complete the OSI follow up form?

A

21 days

30
Q

PETE factors

A

Factors which negatively contributed to the performance of employees directly involved in an occurrence.

31
Q

Right of review

A

An employee is allowed to read the final report from an OSI and request, in writing, a right of review within two weeks of the opportunity to read. After review, this may result in a revised OSI report.

32
Q

Human factors trend analysis

A

Published twice a year, this document includes conclusions from OSIs. Documents what factors make people behave in a certain manner.

33
Q

The GEMS Model

A

Generic Error Modeling System. The point of an investigation is not to find out where people went wrong, it is to understand why their assessments and decisions made sense at the time.

34
Q

Skill based performance

A

Characterized by routine, highly practiced tasks that are carried out fairly automatically with the occasional conscious check on progress.

35
Q

Slip

A

An unintentional action where the failure involves attention.

36
Q

Lapse

A

An unintentional action where the failure involves memory.

37
Q

Perceptual slip/lapse

A

Where a person misrecognizes an object, sound, or situation, in large part because of expectation or habit.

38
Q

Rule-based performance

A

Characterized by situations that are familiar and which require some conscious evaluation. Occur when attempting to solve a familiar or trained-for problem.

39
Q

What are the two types of rule-based performance mistakes?

A

Misidentifying the situation and misidentifying the solution.

40
Q

Misidentifying the situation

A

When the person does not recognize the counter-indications and misapplies otherwise good rules.

41
Q

Misidentifying the solution

A

When the person correctly identifies the situation, but does not apply the correct solution. Commonly occurs when a general rule does not work for a specific situation

42
Q

Knowledge-based performance

A

Characterized by novel or atypical problem situations for which people have no ready-made solutions.

43
Q

Adaptations

A

Deliberate deviations from established rules and procedures not intended to commit a malevolent act.

44
Q

Short-cuts

A

Adaptations that people make because they follow the path of least resistance.

45
Q

Workarounds

A

Adaptations that people make to get the job done because if they actually followed the rules they would not be able to do their jobs efficiently.

46
Q

The PETE model

A

Person Equipment Task Environment. The main source of human factors information, considering all elements and how they would influence the specialist.

47
Q

What are the key attributes of the PETE model?

A
  • Systems approach
  • User-centered design philosophy
  • Task based
48
Q

Defence barriers

A

Procedures or actions that limited or mitigates the effect of the occurrence
