Core concepts
Concept 1
Proactive checks test critical controls before harm, while incident and ill-health data show outcomes after control has failed or been challenged.
Exam cue: Measure whether the critical control works, not only whether a form exists.
Concept 2
Corrective actions need clear owners, realistic deadlines, verification and attention to underlying system causes.
Exam cue: Track actions through verified close-out.
Concept 3
Review brings together performance, workforce insight and change so management arrangements remain suitable and resilient.
Exam cue: Use learning across contractors, phases and future projects.
