What do the terms "catastrophic, critical, moderate, and negligible" describe in the risk assessment matrix? |
Level of severity of an adverse event’s effect |
|
What is the first step in the risk management (RM) process? |
Identify hazards |
|
How are hazards identified during mission planning? |
By applying the METT-TC framework to examine risks posed by the mission, enemy, terrain and weather, troops and equipment, time, and civil considerations |
|
Which of the following is not a RM principle? |
Apply the RM process to situations where serious injury might occur |
|
You are part of a combat patrol in a foreign city. There are squad-sized insurgent forces operating in the area. What are key considerations when identifying hazards associated with the Civil Considerations factor of METT-TC? |
Pedestrians at the market, riots or demonstrations, and/or religious events taking place |
|
What METT-TC factor is at the root of the question: Do I remember the training I received about what to do when encountering unexploded ordnance? |
Troops and Equipment |
|
What step in the risk management (RM) process is focused on determining the probability and severity of a hazard occurring? |
Assess hazards |
|
What is the intersection of the assessed probability and severity of a hazard called in the RM process? |
Risk level |
|
What is risk management (RM)? |
A decision-making process for identifying hazards and controlling risks both on-duty and off-duty |
|
What do of the terms "frequent, likely, occasional, seldom, and unlikely" describe in the risk assessment matrix? |
Level of probability of an adverse event occurring |
|
What is the purpose of the RM step, Develop Controls and Make Risk Decisions? |
To determine whether the risk of an adverse event occurring is reduced enough that the benefits of completing the mission outweigh the risks |
|
What does "residual risk" mean in the RM process? |
Risk that remains after all controls have been selected |
|
What RM process step requires a cycle of continuous reassessment until the benefits of completing the mission outweigh the risks of not completing it? |
Develop controls and make risk decisions |
|
What method is used to implement controls in the RM process? |
Communicate, coordinate, implement, and integrate the control’s who, what, when, where, and how into SOPs, written and verbal orders, mission briefings, and staff estimates with clear and simple execution orders |
|
What is the fifth step in the risk management (RM) process? |
Supervise and evaluate |
|
Off-duty risk decisions are: |
The responsibility of individual Soldiers |
|
How do on-duty leaders supervise compliance with hazard controls during an operation? |
By ensuring subordinates understand how, when, and where controls are implemented, monitoring the employment of controls, and adjusting as situational awareness demands |
|
What are controls designed to do? |
Reduce or eliminate risk |
