CAP_safetyThe Feb. Safety Briefing is over Operational Risk Management or ORM. ORM training by CAP mambership is an annual requirement by CAP National HQ and MOWG. CAP National Safety Officer Col. Lyle Letteer has requested that every member task the Basic ORM training and test on the CAP website, gocivilairpatrol.com.
CAPR 62-1.3.d.1 states, "At least annually, Operational Risk Management (ORM) will be discussed during a unit safety meeting." Also CAPR 62-1.3.d.2 states, "New memebership will receive ORM familiarization training, which included in the Level One Foundations Course."

Operational Risk Management is a methodical 6 step process to manage inherent risk. This process allows systematic risk decision-making that reduces mishaps and in turn makes CAP membership safer plus optimizes our operational capability.

Six Steps of the ORM Process:

1. Identify the hazards
2. Assess the risks
3. Analyze the risk control measures
4. Make control decisions
5. Risk control implementation
6. Supervise & review

The 3 ORM levels:

  • Deliberate - Used prior to an activity and the risk controls are intergrated into the activity plans.
  • Time Critical - Used during the execution phase of an activity. Helps choose a course of action when an unplanned event occurs during a planned operationor routine.
  • Strategic - Used to study hazards and risks in a coplex operaton in which the hazards are not well understood.

 

This is just a brief overview of the ORM process. By no means will this briefing meet the requirements needed for the required annual ORM training. Please go to http://members.gocivilairpatrol.com/safety/ and click on ORM. Open the powerpoint or pdf training slides.

When you have reviewed the slides click on the basic ORM test link. This is an open book test. You can use the presentation while taking the test. Print the certificate and bring to the next sqaudron meeting for Capt. Carla Hargis to put in your file.

Thank you for being safe and thinking safe.

Remember:
The person most responsible for safety is the person you see in the mirror each morning.
