Feedback from reports

Two tanker companies were studied in late 2007 and early 2008. In order to ensure the companies anonymity, company and vessel specific information is retained. In both companies the HSQ manager and Crewing Manager have been interviewed. In one company the SMS data system was examined. In the other company aU available statistics, experience feedback from reported cases and safety bulletins available for the vessel were examined. Two field studies have been carried out on one vessel in each company. 

Such feedback, from anyone who interacts with the system by providing input, using information, or receiving reports, can greatly enhance the effectiveness of the new PSM system. System users may have important suggestions about how to improve or streamline a system, or may not clearly understand its importance or the part they play in its implementation. At the same time, soliciting—and acting on—user feedback helps underscore the collaborative nature of PSM cmd the fact that its success depends on the user. 

In addition to these types of evaluations, the incident reporting and near miss systems should be monitored for improvements in performance that can be attributed to the program. On the basis of feedback from these and other sources such as changes in quality levels or efficiency, modifications should be made to the program to enhance and sustain its effectiveness. Concrete evidence regarding the benefits arising from the program should be communicated to those involved. 

Participants should be provided with a detailed information pack on joining the scheme. Communication with participants should be by newsletter or annual report together with a periodic open meeting participants should be advised of changes in scheme design. Advice should be available to poor performers. Feedback from laboratories should be encouraged so participants contribute to the scheme s development. Participants should view it as their scheme rather than one imposed by a distant bureaucracy. 

Of course, I can only speak for myself with regard to the amount of time that is required to develop, test, deploy, and maintain chemometric models for on-line analytical applications. However, it should be apparent that there are several tasks involved in this process, and many of them have nothing to do with building models. I am tempted to provide my estimate of the fraction of time that is typically spent on each of these steps, but I feel obligated to retreat, so that I do not report too biased an assessment (even though I have received feedback from several colleagues on this matter). Instead, I will simply list the tasks and supply a general indicator of the relative level of time spent on each one. 

The DIDB is a tool that is constantly being optimized as a result of feedback from a large base of users, including requests for specific searches. These can be in the format of new queries or special reports tailored by the DIDB team. New features currently being developed include the following. 

Employees can also be their own coaches by obtaining feedback from other sources. Reviewing their own work products, data from reports, or even videotapes (when appropriate and if available) can provide employees with opportunities for self-evaluation and improvement. 

Many voluntary movements are quite unconscious in terms of their details. You decide to lift your arm, yet you have little awareness of the individual muscle actions that allow you to do so. In d-ASCs, greatly increased awareness of particular aspects of the Motor Output subsystem are sometimes reported. Greatly decreased awareness has also been reported actions that are ordinarily subject to conscious awareness, via feedback from the interoceptors, are done with no awareness at all. 

Feedback from Controiied Process The F-15 lead pilot did not follow the ROE and report the identified aircraft to the ACE and ask for guidance, although the ACE did learn about it from the questions the F-15 pilots posed to the controllers on the AWACS aircraft. The Mission Director got incorrect feedback about the state of the airspace from JTIDS. 

The NRC is requested to conduct a review of the PSID and the companion submittals described in the Licensing Plan and document the conclusions of this review in a Preliminary Safety Evaluation Report. Following briefings and feedback from the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards on the results of this review, the NRC is further requested to issue a summary statement, referred to herein as a Licensability Statement, which states the key conclusions of this review and which reaches conclusions as to whether the Standard MHTGR reactor concept is licensable. 

Feedback from MU participants in a published report regarding the efficacy and effectiveness of MU confirmed that they attended MU primarily to... 

Tenacity around the encouragement of reporting and safety feedback from the workplace should be encouraged on an ongoing basis. Eventually the reporting and rectification of problems will become integrated into the day-to-day work process and will become part of normal activities rather than an added burden. This will indicate a positive safety culture improvement.
