Introduction to Risk Management
Fundamentals

•Risk Management
– Used for years
– Used in many industries environments
– Used to anticipate the effects of hazards becoming events.
– Used to approach aviation tasks with increased awareness
– It can be applied to almost all activities, even non-aviation.

Question:
Why do smart, well-trained, intelligent people like ourselves, our friends, and our colleagues continue to have maintenance accidents?
What's missing?
What can we do?
Federal AviationAdministration
9
What Are We Missing?
Systematic and standardized way to identify and manage risk.
– Not everyone has learned to actively seek out the hazards that can hurt and to determine what level of risk the hazards realistically represent.
– Need to make better decisions – • easier
• more comprehensive
• more justifiable.

Risk & Risk Assessment
Risk is an expression of possible loss (consequences) in terms of severity and probability (likelihood). To first perceive the hazards in a given situation, ask yourself:
1.What can happen? What if ?2. What are the consequences?3. How likely is it?
All aviation operations involve risk and requires decisions to be based on common sense, best practices, and well managed risk.

Severity Scale Definitions
CatastrophicResults in fatalities and/or loss of the system.
CriticalSevere injury and/or major system damage.
MarginalMinor injury and/or minor system damage.
NegligibleLess than minor injury and/or less than minor system damage.
Federal AviationAdministration
16
Likelihood Scale Definitions
Frequent
Likely to occur often.
Probable
Will occur several times.
Occasional
Likely to occur sometime.
Remote
Unlikely to occur; but possible.
Improbable
So unlikely, it is presumed that it will never occur.

USING THE RISK MATRIX
• Provides a relationship of probability and severity
• Risk levels are determined so that educated decision can be made about acceptability of the hazard/risk
• Level of risk determines who in the organization should make the “accept” decision
Federal AviationAdministration
20
Rule #1
When selecting the severity level, you must always consider the worst that can happen … regardless of the likelihood.
Federal AviationAdministration
21
If the risk level is determined to be high, who should make the acceptability decision?
A. The person currently manning the front line manager position.
B. Top level management.
C. You can make the decision as long as it doesn’t interrupt any traffic.

ANSWERANSWER• You must always consider the ______ that
can happen if the hazard becomes an occurrence

Manage the Risk
You've assessed the risk! Congratulations!! Now what?
There are only four things you CAN do with risk: Transfer Eliminate Accept Mitigate
Federal AviationAdministration
24
Risk Principles
Risk management has five governing principles.
1. Accept risk only when benefits outweigh the cost
2. Accept no unnecessary risk
3. Anticipate and manage risk by planning
4. Make risk decisions at the right level
5. Document all risk decisions
Federal AviationAdministration
25
Making the ‘accept’ decision
Accepting risk may not be a simple matter and can be a difficult concept.
Several points to keep in mind:
(1)Risk is a fundamental reality
(2) Risk management is a process
(3) Quantifying risk doesn't guarantee safety
(4) Risk is a matter of perspective
Federal AviationAdministration
26
Making Better Risk Decisions
• Risk management is an aid to making better decisions and to plan better.
• The three levels of risk management decisions:
1. Time-Critical
2. Deliberate
3. In-Depth
Federal AviationAdministration
27
Three Levels of Decisions
• Time Critical—An “on-the-run” mental or oral review; e.g., – What can cause me to fail the mission (hazard)?– What can I do about it (control measure)? – How am I going to make the control measure work
(implementation and supervision)?
• Deliberate—Application of the complete five-step process primarily using past experience and brainstorming. Documentation is paramount.
• In Depth—A thorough approach to an event involving research of available data, formal testing, or long-term tracking of information.
Federal AviationAdministration
28
Residual Risk
Residual risk is risk that we accept.
– It is the risk remaining after we do risk management
– It consists of the acceptable risk and the unidentified risk
Unidentified
Federal AviationAdministration
29
Factors For Safety
• Develop personal and/or organizational minimums for common tasks and operations
• Minimums are by definition "minimums"
• Plan for what is safe, not for the minimums
Federal AviationAdministration
30
Factors For Safety
• Be prepared to: – stop – reevaluate – reprioritize
• Always have a back up plan or a way out.
• Understand the "why" of a rule, regulation, or policy, not just what it is.
Federal AviationAdministration
31
Putting It All Together
Risk management is a five-step process
Federal AviationAdministration
32
Step 1: Identify The Hazards
• Identifying hazards is the most important part of our risk management process
• Possible ways to help you identify hazards:
1. Task Analysis
2. "What if?" Tool
3. Change Analysis
Federal AviationAdministration
33
Step 2: Assess The Risk
• For each hazard identified in Step 1, assess the risk
• Risk accounts for the likelihood of an event occurring and the severity of the outcome
• Use a risk assessment matrix to determine the level of risk
Federal AviationAdministration
34
Step 3: Make Risk Decisions
• Risk controls are meant to change risk by lowering the likelihood of occurrence and/or decreasing the severity of a risk.
• Control Options fall into three categories:1. Engineering2. Administrative3. Personal Protective Equipment
Federal AviationAdministration
35
Step 3: Make Risk Decisions
• Use common sense when determining appropriate control measure
• It's usually preferred to engineer out a hazard than to add a new procedure
• Start with the most serious risk first
• Reduce the risk to a minimum consistent with the benefits
Federal AviationAdministration
36
Step 4. Implement Controls
• Act to control the risk
• May involve several factors, depending on the situation. – Assets may have to be acquired or made available.– Documentation is always required. – People may have to be notified and responsibilities assigned.– Communication throughout the organization is a must.
• Be realistic in the selection and implementation of controls.
• To be fully effective, the controls must be documented, sustained and periodically reevaluated.
Federal AviationAdministration
37
Step 5: Monitor
• Well developed metrics might reveal additional hazards that will require additional controls.
• Three things to look for:– Are the risk controls effective? – Is there a need for further assessment? – What additional information can be learned?
• Last step of the risk management process– this is a cyclic process – Review old hazards, risks, and controls regularly
Federal AviationAdministration
38
Risk Management Process Review
Five-step process– Each step as a building block for the next step. – A cycle that is continuously seeking new hazards.
Step 1: Identify HazardsStep 2: Assess Risk Step 3: Make Risk DecisionsStep 4: Implement Controls Step 5: Monitor

A. The pilot and the mechanic
B. The hazard frequency and severity
C. Good and Bad

BRIEFING SUMMARY
• After identifying a hazard, the next step is to analyze it for risk level
• Risk level has two components– Likelihood– Severity
• You must always consider the worst severity
• If the residual risk is high, the accept decision must be made by top management
