Slide4 : TSP-4


Slide5 : TSP--4A SOURCES OF CAUSE FACTORS EXAMPLES Individual Failure - Soldier knows there is a requirement to be certified on servicing tires and although he isn’t certified, he attempts to service the tire anyway so he won’t have to wait for maintenance personnel. Can’t be that hard. Leader Failure - Supervisor sees the soldier changing the tire and doesn’t stop him. Training Failure - Soldier has never had any training on how to service split rims and didn’t know that a tire cage and air extension is required for inflation. Standards Failure - The unit SOP requires the use of a tire cage, however it does not require the use of a twelve foot air gage extension. Support Failure - The unit tire cage was not properly constructed and the unit does not have a twelve foot extension for the air gage.

Slide11 : Risk Management Process Identify Hazards. Identify hazards to the force. Consider all aspects of current and future situations, environment, and known historical problem areas. TSP-10 Assess hazards Implement controls Supervise & evaluate IDENTIFY HAZARDS


Slide12 : METT-T Mission- Specified, implied and subtasks. Enemy - Size and capability (SALUTE). Terrain/Weather - Environmental conditions. Troops and Equipment - - Troops - training, type, number, and physical condition. - Equipment - amount, type, design, and condition. Time available - plan, rehearse, and conduct . TSP-11


Slide13 : ID HAZARDS - OBJECTIVE OBJECTIVE - Identified those hazards most likely to result in loss of combat power CRITERIA For “Most Likely Hazard” - Hazard is not adequately controlled at this echelon or next lower echelon. - Hazard should be tracked via risk management work sheet. TSP-12


Slide14 : IS THE HAZARD ADEQUATELY CONTROLLED? Identified METT-T hazard -Support - Is type/amount/capability/condition of support adequate to control hazard? - Personnel - Equipment/material - Supplies - Services/facilities -Standards - Is guidance/procedure adequately clear/ practical/specific to control hazard? - Training - Is training adequately thorough and recent to control hazard? - Leader - Are leaders ready, willing and able to enforce standards required to control hazard? - Individual - Is soldier performance and conduct sufficiently self-disciplined to control hazard? Adequate YES NO A - If all “yes”, no further action. - If one or more “no”, risk manage this hazard. TSP-13

Slide16 : IDENTIFY HAZARDS TROOP LEADING PROCEDURES - RECEIVE THE MISSION - ISSUE THE WARNING ORDER - MAKE A TENTATIVE PLAN WHILE YOU ARE DOING THIS DO THIS TSP-15


Slide17 : Risk Management Process. Assess Hazards. Assess hazards to determine risks. Assess the impact of each hazard in terms of potential loss and cost, based on probability and severity. TSP-16 ASSESS HAZARDS Implement controls Supervise & evaluate

Slide19 : TSP-18


Slide20 : SEVERITY Catastrophic Critical Marginal Negligible Death or permanent total disability, system loss, major property damage. Permanent partial disability, temporary total disability in excess of 3 months, major system damage, significant property damage. Minor injury, lost workday accident, compensable injury or illness, minor system damage, minor property damage. First aid or minor supportive medical treatment, minor system impairment. SEVERITY TSP-19


Slide21 : ASSESS THE HAZARDS - “MAKE A TENATIVE PLAN” - MAKE AN ESTIMATE OF THE SITUATION - DEVELOP SITUATION AND COA - ANALYZE COURSES OF ACTION - DETAILED MISSION ANALYSIS WHILE YOU ARE DOING THIS DO THIS TSP-20 TROOP LEADING PROCEDURES


Slide22 : Risk Management Process. Develop Controls and Make Risk Decisions. Develop control measures that eliminate the hazard or reduce its risk. As control measures are developed, risks are reevaluated until all risks are reduced to a level where benefits outweigh potential cost. TSP--21 Assess hazards DEVELOP CONTROLS & MAKE RISK DECISION Implement controls Supervise & evaluate


Slide23 : TSP-22 CONTROLS For each hazard Implement existing controls if adequate, if not Adjust to make adequate or develop new controls Consider: Realism, time, money and resources Minimize chance of accidents Maximize chance of mission accomplishment DECISION Determine level of residual risk Have the appropriate level of command accept risk Develop Controls & Make Risk Decision


Slide24 : DEVELOP CONTROLS AND MAKE RISK DECISION - COMPARING COURSES OF ACTION - MAKING DECISION - EXPANDING SELECTED COA INTO A TENTATIVE PLAN WHILE YOU ARE DOING THIS DO THIS TSP-23 TROOP LEADING PROCEDURES


Slide25 : Risk Management Process Implement Controls. Put controls in place that eliminate the hazards or reduce their risks. TSP--24 Assess hazards IMPLEMENT CONTROLS Supervise & evaluate


Slide26 : Standing Operating Procedures (SOP'S) Orders Briefings and back-briefs Training Rehearsals New equipment IMPLEMENT CONTROLS TSP-25


Slide27 : IMPLEMENT CONTROLS TROOP LEADING PROCEDURES - INITIATING MOVEMENT - RECONNOITERING - COMPLETING THE PLAN - ISSUING THE ORDER WHILE YOU ARE DOING THIS DO THIS TSP-26


Slide28 : Risk Management Process Supervise & Evaluate. Perform to, and enforce standards and controls. Evaluate the effectiveness of controls and adjust/ update as necessary. TSP-27 Assess hazards Implement controls SUPERVISE & EVALUATE


Slide29 : Supervise All Soldiers responsible (self-discipline) for: Performing to standard Executing controls Recognizing unsafe acts or conditions Leaders are also responsible for enforcement Evaluate Effectiveness of Controls (adjust/update) Feedback - AAR’s TSP-28


Slide30 : TROOP LEADING PROCEDURES - SUPERVISE AND REFINE THE PLAN WHILE YOU ARE DOING THIS TSP-29 DO THIS SUPERVISE AND EVALUATE
