Explain the 5 step process for ORM: Step One: Identying hazards
A hazard is any condition with the potential to negatively impact mission accomplishment or cause injury, death, or property damage. Three basic actions to be completed in this step:
1) Analyze the Mission
2) List the Hazards
3) Determine the Hazard Root Cause
Explain the 5 step process for ORM: Step Two: Assessing hazards
For each hazard identified, determine the associated degree of risk in terms of probability and severity.
Explain the 5 step process for ORM: Step Three: Making risk decisions
Identify control options
determine control effects
Make risk decision
Explain the 5 step process for ORM: Step Four: Implementing controls
Once the risk control decisions are made, the next step is to implement. Ensure the plan is comunicated clearly to all involved personnel, establish accountability and provide necessary support.
Explain the 5 step process for ORM: Step Five: Supervising
Monitor effectiveness of risk controls.
Determine the need for further assessment of all or a portion of the mission task due to an unanticipated change.
