What is done during the "Implement Controls" step?

During the "Implement Controls" step, risk mitigation strategies are applied to minimize or eliminate identified risks. This phase is critical as it transitions the planning and assessment phase into actionable measures that can effectively reduce the potential for negative outcomes. By applying risk mitigation strategies, personnel can address the specific hazards identified in earlier stages of the ORM process, ensuring that safeguards are in place before proceeding with operations.

This involves putting into practice the strategies that were developed in the risk assessment phase, which may include implementing safety measures, enhancing training protocols, or employing technology to reduce risk exposure. The ultimate goal is to create a safer operational environment through practical and effective measures.
