A cadet assumes that once a risk assessment has been approved, it stays valid permanently unless someone happens to notice a problem with it. Is that how review actually works?

A. Risk assessments are reviewed only once per year, on a fixed company-wide schedule, regardless of any changes

B. Once approved by the company, a risk assessment never needs to be reviewed again

C. Review only happens after an actual incident has occurred

D. No — a risk assessment must be reviewed if there is reason to suspect it's no longer valid, or if there has been a significant change in the matters to which it relates; review isn't just something that happens if someone happens to notice an issue, it's a defined trigger built into the requirement itself

A. Daily, weekly, monthly, and annual risk assessments, based purely on time interval

B. Low, medium, high, and critical risk assessments, based only on severity rating

C. Generic risk assessments (company-level), task-based risk assessments (onboard, specific to the job), toolbox talks (discussing the assessment with those doing the work), and personal/dynamic assessment (an individual's ongoing informal check while working)

D. Deck, engine, catering, and bridge risk assessments, based on department

A. Nothing further — the generic company risk assessment for enclosed space entry already covers this job

B. Only a toolbox talk is needed, since the team already knows the general hazards of enclosed spaces

C. A new generic risk assessment must be drafted and submitted to the company before this job can proceed

D. A task-based risk assessment specific to this entry and these personnel, followed by a toolbox talk walking the team through its findings before work begins
