What is the aim of the Air Force Mishap Prevention program regarding workplace hazards?

The aim of the Air Force Mishap Prevention program is to proactively identify and remove hazards in the workplace to enhance safety and prevent accidents before they occur. This program focuses on systematically analyzing potential risks and implementing measures to eliminate or mitigate those hazards, fostering a safer working environment. By prioritizing hazard identification and removal, the program not only protects personnel but also ensures the integrity of operations and equipment.

While reporting accidents, increasing surveillance, and conducting regular training are important components of overall safety management, they are more reactive or supportive measures rather than the direct aim of the Mishap Prevention program itself. The core objective remains to create a culture of safety through the proactive management of workplace hazards.
