QA—Quality assurance RAC—Risk assessment code RIMS—Risk information management system ROE—Rules of engagement S—Severity SOP—Standard operating procedure STEP—Sequencial time event plot TO—Technical order TRA—Training realism assessment US—United States USAF—United States Air Force WWW—World-wide web Terms Exposure—The number of personnel or resources affected by a given event or, over time, by repeated events. This can be expressed in terms of time, proximity, volume, or repetition. This parameter may be included in the estimation of severity or probability, or considered separately. Gambling—Making risk decisions without reasonable or prudent assessment or management of the risks involved. Hazard—Any real or potential condition that can cause mission degradation, injury, illness, death to personnel or damage to or loss of equipment or property. Mishap—An unplanned event or series of events resulting in death, injury, occupational illness, or damage to or loss of equipment or property. Operator— “. . . a military or civilian member of our service who is experienced in the employment and doctrine of air and space power” (Gen. Ronald R. Fogleman, former CSAF). Probability—The likelihood that an individual event will occur. 36

Risk—An expression of consequences in terms of the probability of an event occurring, the severity of the event and the exposure of personnel or resources to potential loss or harm. A general expression of risk as a function of probability, severity, and exposure can be written as: Risk = ƒ(P, S, E). Risk Assessment—The process of detecting hazards and their causes, and systematically assessing the associated risks. Risk Control—An action designed to reduce risk by lowering the probability of occurrence and/or decreasing the severity of an identified hazard. Severity—The expected consequences of an event in terms of mission impact, injury, or damage. System—A composite, at any level of complexity, of personnel, procedures, materials, tools, equipment, facilities, and software. The elements of this composite entity are used together in the intended operational or support environment to perform a given task or achieve a specific mission requirement. 37
