Risk Oversight & Corrective Action

Course Summary

The aviation industry involves significant risk. To guarantee a safe environment for all employees and customers, there should be a strong focus on risk management, primarily risk oversight and corrective action. Investing in this area of risk management will better allow an organisation to recover in times of crisis and minimise physical harm as a risk occurs.


Risk oversight is described as a proactive approach to reducing risks through resource allocation, which is dependent on the risk's priority. To discover priority risks, the organisation must conduct risk audits. The audit process allows the organisation to identify all risks and hazards, their probability, and their detrimental effects on the business and life. Risk oversight can utilise this information to accurately conclude what risks will have the largest impact and allocate the necessary resources to minimise the probability and damage.


Alongside risk oversight is corrective action. These processes go hand in hand; one cannot exist without the other. Corrective action is the response to a risk after it has occurred. Corrective action plans are an essential risk management factor, and each risk should have multiple possible actions depending on its severity. With the appropriate risk oversight, corrective actions can be as extensive as necessary.


Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
 

  • Understand the vitality of risk oversight and corrective action within an organisation.
  • Assess methods of measuring entities or subjects to determine baseline oversight levels.
  • Explain the consequences of poor risk oversight and corrective action.
  • Identify key components throughout the risk audit cycle and what they entail.
  • Examine identified risks and categorise them based upon various factors, including detriment to health and probability.
  • Comprehend the concepts, principles, and industry standards of risk-based oversight (RSO).
  • Utilise various techniques and tools to recognise hazards and risks accurately.
  • Create corrective action plans dependent on probable risks.

This course is designed for anyone in the aviation industry responsible for risk management, including risk oversight and corrective actions. It would be most beneficial for:
 

  • Risk Managers
  • HSE Officers
  • Operations Managers
  • Risk Analysts
  • Risk Auditors
  • Chief Safety Officers (CSOs)

This course uses a variety of adult learning styles to aid full understanding and comprehension. Participants will review real-world examples of organisations with established risk management, including risk audits and corrective action, to highlight identified risks and challenges faced through enacting corrective actions.


Participants will use a variety of learning methods, including seminars, video materials, practical demonstrations, and individual activities. This combination will allow them to develop a full and comprehensive understanding of the taught content and further opportunities to demonstrate and practise the related physical skills.
