3-4. Safetya. Conduct realistic training exercises within the bounds of an effective risk management program. Before training, ensure the complete integration of risk management along with command approval prior to the event, then thoroughly brief all cadre and IET Trainee/Soldiers on the risks associated with each specific training event/activity. This will include identification of specific hazards and controls used to reduce the risk of accidents associated with the training event. TSP risk assessment and unit risk assessment will be reviewed to verify the proper level of risk has been identified. IET risk assessment will address all applicable safety procedures and potential accident producing conditions. Emphasize unusual vehicle, water, weapons safety considerations, and environmental hazards in training areas prior to and during the training. Training cadre is proactive and aggressive in reducing/preventing training injuries and fatalities. (1) Each installation will establish standard procedures to ensure that emergency treatment is readily available during training. (2) TRADOC service schools and major subordinate commands will apply risk management techniques to eliminate or control hazards in accordance with guidelines established in TR 350-70, and TR 385-2. The safety manager will review and validate all TSP risk assessments. (3) Brigade, battalion, and company commanders, CSMs, and 1SGs will complete the Commander’s Safety Course prior to assuming IET duties. The Commander’s Safety Course (Course number 012G1403) is one of the ATSC distance learning courses accessible at https://www.atsc.army.mil. (4) Unit commanders will ensure all safety controls identified in the risk management worksheet are implemented prior to the start of training. Commanders will ensure all initial training period risk assessments are completed reflecting the conditions at the training site for the specific training period. Risk assessments are maintained at the training site, and are living, working documents and must be continually updated as conditions change. Risk management policy is in accordance with TR 385-2, paragraph 1-5. (5) The instructor will integrate the appropriate safety/caution statement into each task, and evaluate performance while Soldiers perform the task to the prescribed standard. The instructor will have a copy of the risk management worksheet with them during the training event. (6) All training safety is built on a three-tiered approach to safety (command, leader, and individual). (a) Tier 1 (commander responsibility). Validate the structural soundness of the training and evaluation plan for safety, ensure safety related matters are addressed, and make risk acceptance decisions. Ensure all risk assessment worksheets are signed at the appropriate level for the risk involved (low, moderate, high, or extremely high). (b) Tier 2 (first-line leader responsibility). Consider actions taken by responsible individuals, establish a safety over watch of training, focus on adherence to standards, and make risk acceptance decisions within the commander’s intent and delegated authority. (c) Tier 3 (individual Soldier responsibility). Ensure Soldiers look after themselves and others, and know how to recognize unsafe conditions and acts. Soldiers must meet their individual responsibilities for safety, and recognize and report unsafe acts to leaders. b. Commanders will also ensure that cadre and IET Soldiers are aware of the appropriate procedures for reporting suspicious or adverse incidents during non-training hours. Examples are (but not limited to): actual or suspected instances of fire, theft, altercations, suicidal gestures or attempts, injury, unusual health symptoms, or any other unusual behavior or event. 3-5. Tobacco cessation policy for IETa. Trainees in the first three phases of IET (BCT and OSUT) are prohibited from use tobacco products. All cadre and Trainees/Soldiers (including MOS-T Soldiers) are prohibited from using tobacco products in areas where IET trainee/Soldiers are likely to observe use (for example, in the brigade, battalion, company, or any training area). b. Sale of tobacco products from vending machines in IET areas is eliminated to the extent possible, consistent with the requirements of existing contracts. c. Instruction on the adverse impact tobacco use has on health and readiness is presented to BCT and OSUT Soldiers, as prescribed in the physical readiness training and testing appendix of the BCT POI. POI proponents will incorporate similar instruction into AIT fitness and substance abuse training. d. Centers, schools, and organizations will coordinate with the supporting contracting office to ensure contractor personnel comply with this policy. e. This policy does not cancel or supersede other instructions where smoking is controlled because of fire, explosive, or other safety considerations. 3-6. Risk managementCommanders and trainers of IET Trainee/Soldiers will utilize the principles and procedures established in FM 5-19 and TR 385-2. Commanders will ensure all cadre receive risk management training prior to assuming control over the IET Trainee/Soldier. The risk management process assists commanders in making informed, conscious decisions on eliminating unnecessary risks, and in accepting residual risks inherent in accomplishing the mission. 3-7. Line of duty (LOD) investigationsThe unit commander will ensure DA Form 2173 (Statement of Medical Examination and Duty Status) is completed promptly and forwarded through channels to the appointing authority (see appendix H, para H-6 for further guidance). The final LOD determination is vital for USAR/ARNG Soldiers who have sustained illnesses or injuries while in training. Without an approved LOD determination RC Soldiers returning to their home are ineligible for medical evaluation and care for their illness or injury. Army Regulation 600-8-4 prescribes the use of DA Form 2173, the primary record in the LOD determination process.
