MTS EXAM QUESTIONS WITH CORRECT
ANSWERS
Explain these parts of the five step process as they apply to ORM:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
a. Identifying hazards - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Pg. 7 - Step 1 in the
| | | | | | | | | | | |
process. A hazard is any condition with the potential to negatively
| | | | | | | | | | |
impact mission accomplishment or cause injury, death, or property
| | | | | | | | |
damage. Hazard identification is foundation of the entire RM process. If
| | | | | | | | | | |
a hazard is not identified, it cannot be controlled. The effort expended in
| | | | | | | | | | | |
|identifying hazards will have a multiplier effect. Therefore, this step
| | | | | | | | | |
should be allotted a larger portion of the available time. There are three
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
basic actions to be completed in this step:
| | | | | | |
(1) Analyze the Mission.
| | |
(2) List the Hazards.
| | |
(3) Determine the Hazard Root Cause.
| | | | |

| | | | | | | | | | | |
b. Assessing hazards - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-pg 8-10 - Step 2 in the
| | | | | | | | | | | |
process. For each hazard identified, determine the associated degree of
| | | | | | | | | |
risk in terms of probability and severity. The result of the risk
| | | | | | | | | | | |
assessment is a prioritized list of hazards, which ensures that controls
| | | | | | | | | | |
are first identified for the most serious threat to mission or task
| | | | | | | | | | | |
,accomplishment. The hazard list is intended for use as a guide to the | | | | | | | | | | | | |
relative priority of risks involved and not as an absolute order to follow.
| | | | | | | | | | | |
(1) Severity.
|
(2) Probability.
|
(3) Complete Risk Assessment.
| | |
(4) Risk Assessment Pitfalls.
| | |

| | | | | | | | | | | |
c. Making risk decisions - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-pg 10-13 - Step 3 in the
| | | | | | | | | | | |
|process. There are three basic actions, which ultimately lead to making
| | | | | | | | | | |
informed risk decisions: identifying control options; determining the
| | | | | | | |
effect of these controls on the hazard or risk; and, ultimately deciding
| | | | | | | | | | | |
how to proceed. | |
(1) Identify Control Options.
| | |
(2) Determine Control Effects.
| | |
(3) Make Risk Decisions.
| | |
Explain these parts of the five step process as they apply to ORM:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
d. Implementing controls - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-pg 13-14 - Implement
| | | | | | | |
Controls (Step 4). Once the risk control decisions are made, the next
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
step is implementation. This requires that the plan is clearly
| | | | | | | | | |
communicated to all the involved personnel, accountability is | | | | | | | |
established, and necessary support is provided. Careful documentation
| | | | | | | |
of each step in the
| | | |
,RM process facilitates risk communication and the rational
| | | | | | |
processes behind the RM decisions. | | | |
Explain these parts of the five step process as they apply to ORM:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
e. Supervising - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-pg 14 - Supervise and review
| | | | | | | | | |
involves determining the effectiveness of risk controls throughout the
| | | | | | | | |
mission or task. This involves three actions: monitoring the
| | | | | | | |
effectiveness of risk controls; determining the need for further | | | | | | | | |
assessment of all or a portion of the mission or task due to an
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
unanticipated change; and capturing lessons learned, both | | | | | |
positive and negative. | |
Define "high-risk" course. - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-REF C Encl 1, pg 5 -
| | | | | | | | | | |
a. A term to describe a known or unknown condition or state where an
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
elevated probability of | |
loss or an increased level of severity is likely or imminent.
| | | | | | | | | |
b. A term used to describe situations that require special attention
| | | | | | | | | | |
and/or intervention to prevent
| | |
a declining situation.
| |
c. May imply a dangerous situation.
| | | | |
, Discuss what type of courses are considered "high-risk". - CORRECT
| | | | | | | | | |
ANSWER✔✔-High-Risk Training. All basic or advanced, individual or | | | | | | | |
collective training in a traditional| | | |
or non-traditional environment which exposes the crew, staff, students
| | | | | | | | |
and/or assets to the| | |
potential risks of death, permanent disability, or loss during training.
| | | | | | | | |
Discuss what type of courses are considered "high-risk".
| | | | | | |
What are "Severity Level" codes? - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Severity Level
| | | | | | | |
I: death or loss of asset
| | | | | |
Severity Level II: severe injury, damage
| | | | |
Severity Level III: minor injury, damage
| | | | |
Severity Level IV: minimal threat
| | | |
Discuss the difference between these types of courses. REF E
| | | | | | | | |
(a) Voluntary
|
(b) Involuntary - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-a. Training in which a Sailor has
| | | | | | | | | | |
voluntary enrolled and has the ability to Drop On Request and return to
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
his/her original rating.
| |
b. Training in which a Sailor is enrolled through the accession training or
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
follow-on specialty skills school. | | |
