    Air Force Inspection System (AFIS) inspections are conducted on behalf of whom?

    • A.

      Secretary of Defense, Chief of Staff of the Air Force, and commanders at all levels

    • B.

      Secretary of Defense, Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force, and commanders at all levels

    • C.

      Secretary of the Air Force, Chief of Staff of the Air Force, and commanders at all levels

    • D.

      Secretary of the Air Force, Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force, and commanders at all levels

    Correct Answer
    C. Secretary of the Air Force, Chief of Staff of the Air Force, and commanders at all levels
    Explanation
    AFIS inspections are conducted on behalf of the Secretary of the Air Force, Chief of Staff of the Air Force, and commanders at all levels. This means that these inspections are carried out to ensure accountability, readiness, and compliance with regulations within the Air Force. The Secretary of the Air Force and Chief of Staff of the Air Force are responsible for overseeing the overall operations and effectiveness of the Air Force, while commanders at all levels are responsible for the specific units and personnel under their command. Conducting AFIS inspections helps to maintain high standards and ensure the Air Force's mission readiness.

  • 2. 

    Which is not an Air Force Inspection System (AFIS) inspection?

    • A.

      Management

    • B.

      Compliance unit

    • C.

      Unit effectiveness

    • D.

      Commmander's inspection program

    Correct Answer
    B. Compliance unit
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Compliance unit" because it is not a part of the Air Force Inspection System (AFIS) inspection. AFIS inspections typically include management, unit effectiveness, and the commander's inspection program. Compliance unit, however, is not a specific inspection category within AFIS.

  • 3. 

    The four major graded areas (MGA) assessed by the Air Force Inspection System (AFIS) include all except

    • A.

      Leading people

    • B.

      Improving the unit

    • C.

      Managing resources

    • D.

    Correct Answer
    D. Executing the vision
    Explanation
    The Air Force Inspection System (AFIS) assesses the four major graded areas (MGA), which are leading people, improving the unit, managing resources, and executing the vision. The correct answer is executing the vision because it is not one of the MGAs assessed by AFIS.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    A safety evaluation is completed in conjunction with

    • A.

      A unit effectiveness inspection (UEI)

    • B.

      An annual inspection

    • C.

      A facility inspection

    • D.

      An assessment

    Correct Answer
    A. A unit effectiveness inspection (UEI)
    Explanation
    A safety evaluation is completed in conjunction with a unit effectiveness inspection (UEI) because both assessments are important for ensuring the overall effectiveness and safety of a unit or organization. While a UEI focuses on evaluating the unit's operational readiness and effectiveness in meeting its mission objectives, a safety evaluation specifically assesses the unit's safety protocols, practices, and compliance with safety regulations. By conducting these evaluations together, any safety deficiencies or risks can be identified and addressed alongside the unit's overall effectiveness, ensuring that safety is an integral part of the unit's operations.

    Rate this question:

    • C.

      3 years

    • D.

      4 years

    Correct Answer
    C. 3 years
    Explanation
    The safety assessment for geographically separated units (GSU) is conducted at intervals not to exceed 3 years. This means that the assessment should be done every 3 years or less frequently. Conducting safety assessments at regular intervals ensures that the GSU is regularly evaluated for any potential safety risks or hazards. This helps to maintain a safe environment for the people working in or around the GSU and ensures that any necessary safety measures are implemented in a timely manner.

    Rate this question:

  • 16. 

    Although units are cited individually, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) may classify a similar finding at another installation as a

    • A.

      Finding.

    • B.

      Citation.

    • C.

    Rate this question:

  • 33. 

    The abatement priority number (APN) is a code consisting of the risk assessment code (RAC) and the

    • A.

      Probability.

    • B.

      Personnel exposure.

    • C.

      Cost effectiveness index.

    • D.

      Severity and probability multiplier.

    Correct Answer
    C. Cost effectiveness index.
    Explanation
    The abatement priority number (APN) is a code that helps prioritize the order in which abatement actions should be taken. It consists of the risk assessment code (RAC) and the cost effectiveness index. The cost effectiveness index takes into consideration the cost of implementing the abatement action and the effectiveness of that action in reducing the risk. Therefore, the APN with a higher cost effectiveness index would indicate that the abatement action is more cost-effective in reducing the risk compared to other actions with lower cost effectiveness indexes.
