  5. This course requires focus, concentration, and a willingness to think different. This course will challenge us to change and set an example of change. This course will emphasize what you already will recognize as valuable. Ready to focus?

  6. Focus and Concentration

  7. Intro to Mishap Review: Training Objectives Why we review mishaps and the barriers to mishap reviews What causes injuries and damages How the process works and your role How to begin a mishap review Identifying causal factors Writing the factual narrative Guiding the Commander on corrective action Implementing and tracking the corrective action

  8. Part I: Theory In this part of the session we will cover: traditional reviews (investigations) and norms definition review of CAPR 62-1 why and what we should explore in a mishap review? barriers that may prevent us from doing a review the mishap analysis process roles and responsibilities

  9. Traditional Reviews or Norms Reviews only serious injuries Blaming it on something that someone did Concluding the mishap review too soon Makes assumptions Under reporting Fault-finding Punitive

  10. Remember, do not make assumptions!

  11. Panel Investigation

  12. Definitions (CAPR 62-2) Mishap (New definition): Any unplanned or unsought event, or series of events, that result, in or has the potential to cause death, injury, or damage to equipment or property. Accident: Serious, not so good, total loss, death Incident: Not as serious, more than first aid Minor Mishap: Minor scratches, flat tire – no rim damage, small cut, blisters

  13. Definitions Mechanical: Related to mechanical malfunction only; however are not a result of failure to perform routine maintenance. Near Miss: Any circumstance where the in-flight separation between aircraft constitutes a hazardous situation involving potential risk of collision. Weather: Related to unforeseen weather events, ex. Hail, high wind, flooding, etc.

  14. Definitions Vandalism: Acts of malice towards CAP property where a police report is filed. Pre-existing conditions: Medical conditions of a member that are undisclosed resulting in a mishap or failure of a member to follow the limitations set due to a pre-existing medical condition. Non-CAP: Mishaps that are not the responsibility of CAP, ex. A mishap occurring before or after a CAP activity where the Home to Work rule would apply.

  15. Definitions Other: Miscellaneous one-time occurrences that are not the result of human factors and do not fall into one of the other categories listed above.

  16. Definitions Safety Deviation: Any event that is perceived as an unsought safety act, most commonly defined as any act that is non-compliant with CAP rules, regulations, or other defined policies, as well as local, state, or national laws or regulations that could result in injury or damage to CAP members or equipment. These are “at risk” behaviors that occur in motion that involve CAP members, not to be confused with static risks, defined as hazards, that are identified in CAP’s Hazard reporting system, formerly known as a Form 26. The exception to this is aircraft in-air related which is defined as “near- miss.”

  17. Common Sense isn’t Common

  18. Why Review Mishaps? • Determine; what happened how it happened why it happened • Establish corrective actions to prevent it from happening again • It’s part of a safety culture

  19. The Goal The goal of no-fault mishap reviews is mishap prevention! To prevent injuries we must analyze to determine facts, conditions and circumstances of an incident. We use this information to identify contributing factors and develop corrective action.

  20. What Does it Mean in Operational Terms? REDUCTION IN MEMBER INJURY RATES, FEWER MEMBERS AWAY FROM CAP ACTIVITIES, IMPROVED MEMBER RELATIONSHIPS, IMPROVED PRODUCTIVITY AND HIGHER READINESS RATE.

  21. Mishap Investigations and Mishap Analysis is a part of a solid Safety Management System RM Logistics Training Trending Mishap Analysis Safety Database MX Procedures Behavior Based Safety Inspection PPE Observations Education Goals Motivation Accountability

  22. At-Risk Behavior Triangle • For every major injury • there are many more • minor ones (e.g. • Heinrich 1950) • Investigating and • preventing minor • mishaps will prevent • more serious ones 1 Accident We always investigate these 20-50 Incidents To prevent these, 600 Minor Mishaps we must investigate these 15,000 At-Risk Behaviors Decision Making Data

  23. At Risk Behavior?

  24. Barriers to Your Mishap Review Takes too much time Members don’t understand the need to report Can’t be bothered with the administrative work May result in punishment Reporting may cause the injury rate to go up Reporting may result in lost award

  25. Overcoming the barriers Tell all members why full reporting is important Don’t blame people for injuries Show concern about mishap Recognize those who report mishaps, near-misses, or safety deviations Do not use incentives which ONLY reward lack of injuries or damages

  26. The Mishap Analysis Process Mishap • secure the area • identify witnesses • take measurements and photos • report serious injuries to OCC Collect Preliminary Data • conduct interviews • use Causal Factors Guideline • review injury or damage history • conduct risk assessment Causal Factors • tell the story • document key findings • document corrective action plan Final Report • identify owner • develop time line Implement Plan • follow up with agents Provide Feedback • trends • validate plan • update corr actions Analyze

  27. Roles and Responsibilities Who has a role in the Mishap Analysis process? Commander Safety Officer Region Safety Officers National Safety Team and NHQ Safety

  28. Commander Responsibilities • Arrange for emergency medical services • Contact CAP National Operations Center (NOC) if applicable • Collect preliminary information • Appoint a mishap review officer • Develop corrective action plan after the mishap review is completed • Record causal factors and corrective actions • Forward the mishap review report to the Region Commander for review and approval. • Implement corrective action plan

  29. Safety Officer Responsibilities • Subject Matter Expert • Quality Control • Conduct Operational Risk Assessment • Validate Corrective Action Plan • Analyze for local trends

  30. Region Safety Officer Responsibilities • Ensure mishap reports are filed within 48 hours • Provide coverage and consultation as needed during the mishap review. • Review mishap review reports provided • Part of mishap review team • Maintain accurate records of equipment and bodily injury mishaps • Ensure mishap review training is conducted • Etc. • Etc. • Etc. Your Region Safety Officers Name Here

  31. National Safety Team and NHQ Safety Responsibilities • Review all mishaps and high risk reports and provide additional resources as required • Lead or assist in mishap analysis process • Trend for system wide implications • Track progress on corrective action plans and approve all final mishap reviews • Maintain injury/damage database, post review classifications • Notify and respond to applicable outside agencies • Maintain regulations

  32. Review Part I Fault-finding is an example of current investigation norms. Name at least 3 others. What is a mishap? Why do we review mishaps? What is the goal of a no-fault mishap review? What do we need to review? Who is the lead mishap review officer?
