threat and error management
Threat and Error Management (TEM) is a proactive approach used in high-risk environments, like aviation, to identify and address potential dangers (threats) and mistakes (errors) before they lead to accidents. It involves recognizing risks early, implementing strategies to control or reduce them, and managing errors when they occur to minimize harm. TEM emphasizes teamwork, communication, and continuous monitoring, fostering a safety culture where operators are vigilant and prepared. Overall, it helps ensure safer operations by preventing adverse outcomes through awareness and effective response strategies.
