Answer 2

warranted risk decisions.

Question 3

All units shall implement the five- step RM process to

Answer 3

identify, assess, control, implement controls, and monitor hazards.

Question 4

RM is -

Answer 4

most effective when hazards are identified early and there is ample time to evaluate and implement mitigations and controls to reduce risk exposure.

Identifying hazards early and working together to mitigate and control risk.

Question 5

Deliberate RM is -

Answer 5

conducted well in advance of planned or anticipated operations and activities to identify potential challenges and hazards.

Question 6

Units are encouraged to use the Risk Assessment Matrix (RAM)

Answer 6

to conduct “what can go wrong” analyses on an as-needed-basis,

Question 7

All operational units shall conduct endurance risk assessments using the

Answer 7

Risk Factor Assessment (RFA) tool at least once per year and after a significant change in crew composition, operations, responsibility, or assets

Question 8

all units shall use GAR 2.0 which is?

Answer 8

helps unit anticipate hazards so controls and contingency plans can be explored and implemented before crews are exposed to operational readiness.

Question 9

Reintroduces the PEACE (Planning, Event Complexity, Asset, Communications, and Environment) and the

Answer 9

STAAR (Spread out, Transfer, Avoid, Accept, and Reduce) Reject and Delay models to identify hazards and explore mitigation strategies during risk assessments.

Question 10

Under what step is the STAAR model used? I’m

Answer 10

Step 3; Develop controls and make risk decisions
- develop control
-engineer control
- admin control
- educational control
- Ops control
STAAR model is used to identify and eliminate or reduce risk.

Question 11

The process for implementing a successful CEM program consists of the following tasks:

Answer 11

Step 1: Form a CEM Working Group
Step 2: Conduct a crew-endurance risk assessment
Step 3: Develop a CEM plan for controlling crew-endurance risk factors
Step 4: Deploy the CEM plan
Step 5: Assess the effectiveness of the CEM plan

Question 12

Does saving a life warrant a max effort?

Answer 12

• no suitable alternative exists, and has a reasonable chance of success, then the risk of damage to or abuse to the boat is acceptable.
• possibility of saving human life or the probability of preventing or relieving intense pain or suffering warrants risk of damage to or abuse of the boat if recovering can be reasonably expected.

Question 13

Saving property

Answer 13

If saving property of the US or its citizens warrants the risk of damage to the boat if the value of property to be saved is greater than the cost of boat damage and the boat is fully expected to be recoverable.

Question 14

How do you determine a warranted risk?

Answer 14

the level to which we are permitted to hazard assets and crews for an expected mission gain.
Ex: If a mission is likely to save a human life it warrants a maximum effort. Danger to the crew is not acceptable.

Question 15

Answer 15

1. Those that are manageable

2. Those that are beyond our control
