SELF-ASSESSMENT SYSTEMS ARCHITECTURE
THE CONCEPT
Conceptually, the systems architecture for self-assessment, Figure 2, aims to ensure that
the self-assessment identifies safety and health needs consistent with the business and
management needs of the command. The dynamics of the systems architecture gives due
consideration to employee interaction, safety and health program requirements, and
progress towards stated organizational objectives and PR&MS goals.
The framework for the self-assessment system is built on three fundamental components—
Plan and Prepare, Management System and Business Processes, and Support Processes.
These components exchange important safety, health, support, business and management
information. Within each component there is a reliance on well-defined processes as well
as the management of the relationships within those processes.
The plan and prepare component outlines processes, actions and responsibilities for the
planning and preparation of successful self-assessment efforts. This component houses
the disciplines for identifying requirements and confirming that planned self-
assessments meet the needs of the command. Included in this component are the
administrative processes for recording and assessing self-assessment results.
The management system and business processes component outlines processes, actions
and responsibilities for the planning, execution and follow-up of business and
management strategies relative to mission accomplishment. This component houses
the disciplines for identifying the needs of the command and assessing critical success
factors. Included in this component are training, corrective action, and documentation
control processes. The process for continuous organizational improvement is
embedded in this component.
The support processes component houses the services and partnerships necessary to
achieve safety and health program excellence and mission accomplishment.
Component Relationships: The plan and prepare component interacts with the command’s
overall management system and business processes component by inserting self-
assessment results into the command’s business planning, management review, and
corrective action processes. The relationship continues with the identification of specific
safety and health training needs and improvements that can drive organizational
excellence. The plan and prepare component relates to the support processes component
by accounting for safety and health program support requirements in self-assessment plans.
This relationship continues by identifying the degree of support satisfaction for
management review and subsequent business adjustments.
Information Exchange: All three components of the self-assessment system exchange
safety and health information in the form of organizational goals and objectives,
performance measures, and employee interactions. The plan and prepare component
exchanges PR&MS goals and important safety and health information for mission
objectives and important business information coming from the management system and
business processes. This exchange promotes the integration of safety and health
considerations into the command’s business planning and management review processes.

Similarly, the information exchange with the support processes component promotes
clarity in the support of safety and health programs.

OVERVIEW
The purpose of the PR&MS self-assessment is to identify the current status of the
command SOH program. It should describe where it is, where do you want to go, and how
you will get there. This guide provides basic format, procedures, and methodology for
developing a command SOH self-assessment. It provides a basic performance protocol for
the PR&MS self-assessment.
Command self-assessments of the SOH program can provide significant input to ensure the
activity’s safety and health programs and processes are tailored to meet the needs of the
activity while ensuring thoroughness and appropriateness of the SOH program
requirements.
Planning is an essential part of the self-assessment process for two compelling reasons:
1. From a formal standpoint, the self-assessment tests assumptions that process "A"
provides adequate controls to satisfy the governing requirement(s), or that operation "1" is
being performed in accordance with the requirements specified by process "A."
2. From a practical standpoint, one full cycle of the self-assessment schedule (one year, for
example) must evaluate the effectiveness of every element of the safety program. The first
self-assessment will be the baseline, therefore, the most difficult to complete. Each
subsequent self-assessment evaluates program progress compared to the baseline. An
assessment in which parts of program requirements are omitted from examination defeats
the intent of the self-assessment discipline. Planning provides insurance against such
omission.
Defining Purpose
Self-assessing with a purpose provides unity and coherence. Before any effective planning
for a self-assessment can be done, there must be a clear understanding of the purpose.
With most formally scheduled self-assessments there is a well-established purpose to
verify the effectiveness of the program, process, or operation. However, for a self-
assessment that either is not included in a formal schedule or is taken out of sequence there
is a suggestion of purpose(s) other than routine. As a matter of habit, for every self-
assessment the purpose should be confirmed and/or defined.
3
1. Defining Scope
3. Background Research
4. Identifying Scope
The statement of self-assessment scope will have established which organizational units
are to be examined. It is desirable to determine during the planning phase, which
organizational entities, such as programs, departments, processes and functions are subject
to the current self-assessment effort. It is during this part of planning that points-of-contact
for the examiner should be established. Points of contact can facilitate any personnel
interviews necessary for incorporation into the self-assessment.
5. Determining Evidence
The technical core of the planning effort is determining types of evidence to be examined.
“Evidence” in this case can be documentation, data, observed behavior, questionnaires, etc.
Although this will not always be possible (or feasible within the available time) to make a
before-the-fact list of every type of evidence to be encountered, that should be the goal.
This would include a list of interviewees.
6. Data Fields
Most evidence that is examined during the self-assessment consists of some kind of
documentation, and as such, becomes part of the data for the current self-assessment.
Documentation and pertinent data fields need to be defined and a determination made as to
whether all of the documents and data of a particular type will be subject to evaluation. It
is helpful to have an understanding of how each type of document is prepared and
controlled so the examiner can choose from the most current document and data files or
those of historical nature. It is also desirable to determine during planning how large each
data field is. The examiner often has to work with an order-of-magnitude estimate, but
even that helps in establishing a sampling plan.
4
7. Interviews
Questions to conduct interviews with employees, process owners, and program managers
should be considered. Answers to these questions provide additional evidence for the self-
assessment and becomes part of the data for the current self-assessment.
Having prepared a list of the kinds of documents to be examined during the self-
assessment, a list of interviewees, and having at least estimated how many of each type are
pertinent to the self-assessment, the examiner makes sampling plans. Formal or informal,
there will be one such plan for each kind of data. The examiner decides whether to do
judgment of statistical sampling and determines how large each sample must be (QA
personnel can assist). If statistical sampling is to be employed, the examiner normally
selects the required random number array for each sample at this time.
9. Self-assessment Sequence/Schedule
5
The Self-Assessment Plan
The formal self-assessment plan, based on the planning effort previously discussed in the
Overview, provides formal documentation of the anticipated self-assessment activities. In
practice, the plan tends to be brief. It references the checklist and/or procedure, tells what
kind of sampling is intended, and contains the basic self-assessment sequence. It is seldom
an in-depth treatment of the material the examiner has considered or generated, as most of
what is important will be reflected in documentation of the self-assessment as it is
performed.
The activity self-assessment process looks at the command SOH Program through the eyes
of the six key processes of PR&MS. Start with the Needs Assessment to identify the
relevant programs, serviced population, and resources needed. The best place to begin is
OPNAVINST 5100.23 (series). Assess the applicability of each chapter to the activity.
All chapters may not be applicable. Include other major program areas, which are not
specifically addressed by OPNAVINST 5100.23 (series), such as Fall Protection,
Explosive Safety, Traffic Safety, etc. Self-assessments must be conducted annually, and
you will need to determine whether the current year data is adequate for review, or if you
need to identify trends over a timeline of several years. See
http://safetycenter.navy.mil/osh/shore/prms/, Needs Assessment Matrix, for examples of
tools for this purpose.
The baseline assessment establishes the foundation of the command self-assessment. See
Appendix B, Sample Baseline Self-Assessment Outline.
Step 2-1: What governing documents need to be reviewed? Examples include the
OPNAVINSTs, CFRs, ANSI standards, local SOPs, etc.
Step 2-2: Determine what portions or paragraphs within these documents are applicable.
Step 3-1: If there is a previous self-assessment that has been conducted, review it and
determine if actions have been completed or addressed. Were there gaps? Any changes in
the program since the last review? If not, go to Step 3-2, How to Determine Baseline
Requirements.
6
Step 3-2: Look at leading and lagging indicators such as mishap logs, unsafe/unhealthful
reports, hazard abatement records, mishap investigation reports, relevant union/labor
issues, near miss reports, job hazard analyses (JHAs), industrial hygiene surveys, process
instructions, operational risk management (ORM) surveys, standard operating procedures
(SOPs), etc., for historical review.
Step 3-3: Compare this data to benchmark data previously identified in prior self-
assessments and/or performance measurements or metrics, higher-level directives/ordered
reductions.
For the program being assessed, identify which work units, codes, departments, etc., are
involved in the process and identify the affected population for all programs. For example,
when assessing the confined space entry program, include those trades who routinely enter
confined spaces. If people outside the safety office test confined spaces (qualified
persons), review their records (training, calibration logs, entry permits). When reviewing
the respirator program, go where respirators are used. Select a group of sites (10-20%
total) for a visit. Determine if respirator users are storing respirators properly, if
respirators are in use. Ensure they are donned properly and can employees demonstrate
proper donning and doffing. Identify and document decisions regarding who will be
interviewed and/or which will receive surveys if surveys are used.
Identify points of contact throughout the organization needed during the program
assessment. Do not focus on the lowest levels, integration means throughout all levels of
the command structure. Write down name, code, telephone number, and email address.
Schedule appointments to ensure personnel are available to participate. Remember, the
assessment may not be their first priority, be considerate of their schedule.
Get organized! For the program being reviewed, specify what needs to be assessed. For
example, when evaluating the training program, look at the people, processes and paper
involved in that program (i.e., training plan, lesson plans, critique sheets, personnel
interviews, actual observed performance vice preferred performance). The point here is to
know if the evidence demonstrates that the program works.
Review trends and patterns, analyze for causes and determine priorities. Data should be
broken down by divisions, departments, or work centers to track internal progress.
Analysis needs to be reflected in conclusions, and recommendations for improvements,
which are prioritized where applicable. Corrective action must address underlying causes
and not merely symptoms. Information should be bench marked against Navy, federal,
7
national, or other appropriate private sector data. The analysis process should be reviewed
periodically for appropriateness and changed/improved as necessary.
Periodic monitoring of metrics and reporting of findings and progress should be shared
with the command via policy council, Executive Steering Committee, or other higher
authority.
Where appropriate, determine if data is shared with the entire command and is
integrated/incorporated into training and work processes. Is data analysis used to monitor
and drive continuous improvements?
For example, if reviewing the mishap reporting and record-keeping program, data fields
could include trends over the past 5 years to show improvement or identify areas of
concern. Mishap analyses should be reviewed to determine cause and effect. Timeliness
of reporting may be another data element. Look for data that is being used. Do not create
new data just for the assessment purpose.
Prepare questions in advance. Try to avoid yes/no answers. Keep interviews brief – no
more than 30 minutes. Use “conversational tone”, not “inquisitional tone”. Deflect any
gripes or complaints about lack of policy or direction by explaining this is the SOH
program assessment. Offer to take notes documenting concerns/issues. In addition to
process-specific questions, include questions regarding understanding/perception of their
role within the self-assessment process and PR&MS. Ask for suggestions for process
improvements. Sample interview questions are incorporated in Appendix C, Sample
Interview Questions.
It may be advisable to use surveys in addition to, or sometimes in place of, interviews.
Similar to interviews, prepare questions in advance. The questions should be formatted so
that responses can be analyzed and, perhaps, graphed. Sample survey questions are
provided in Appendix E.
Pull together the information/documents from items 1-7 above, such as list of interviewees,
survey questions, records to review, sites to visit, etc. Develop a schedule. Do not make
the mistake of selecting too few sampling points or too many. One (site visited, lesson
plan reviewed, supervisor interviewed, etc.) may not be enough; 100% may be too many.
This is a plan of action and milestones (POA&M). When will it start? It is possible to
assess the program throughout the year. If that is how it is to be tackled, plan for it. What
will be done first? What comes next? Determine whether order of assessment matters.
For example, will it matter if the hearing conservation program is evaluated before
scheduled hearing conservation training? It probably will so evaluate after training.
8
It may be desirable to use checklists for the program being evaluated or establish separate
criteria. Various checklists for specific programs are available on websites (see Appendix
F, Safety Websites Checklists). Checklist items often tend to spotlight the kind of
evidence required to determine the success or failure of a program and may eliminate the
requirement to develop them locally.

PROGRAM REVIEW SHEET
Program review sheets are designed to provide a format to document the annual self-
assessment of applicable individual programs (e.g., respiratory protection, confined space
entry, etc.) with PR&MS modules applied in a single document.
The completed document should describe where each program is (current status), where it
needs to go (recommendations, goals, objectives), and how to get there (POA&M). This
guide provides basic format, procedures, and methodology for developing a command
SOH self-assessment. It provides a basic performance protocol for the PR&MS self-
assessment, which addresses items such as mishap prevention, regulatory compliance,
training, supervision, customer-focused support, personnel participation, and adequacy of
resources.
Identify applicable program areas and create a program review sheet for each.
Each module has 6 bullets: Goal, Current Status, Adequacy of Resources, Personnel
Participation, Recommendation(s), and Score.
A sheet is required for every program identified on the Scoring Grid Sheet.
Electronic templates will be provided for all the program elements identified on the
attached Scoring Grid.
Add/delete programs to the scoring grid sheet as applicable
Program Review Sheets are provided at Appendix G.
GOALS:
Broad-based goals were developed for each PR&MS module and applied to each SOH
program as shown below rather than establishing specific goals for each program
Mishap Prevention
For the Mishap Prevention Process there are four elements to consider. The
first one is the command’s injury/illness incidence rate. The second element
assesses the command’s process(es) to compile the mishap and hazard data
needed to prevent mishaps. The third element evaluates the data analysis
process in place at the command. The last element examines the process(es)
used by the SOH office to notify process owner of pertinent SOH data and what
those process owners do in response to the analysis data to prevent mishaps.
Regulatory Compliance
The first step is to determine the command’s regulatory compliance
requirements and then develop a strategy to meet them. Resources should also
be identified to achieve the regulatory requirements and a strategy developed to
execute, monitor, and sustain/maintain compliance.
Sample Goal: To ensure all managers and supervisors are equipped, qualified,
prepared and accountable for safely conducting daily operations.
Training
Based on two separate performance measures. The first measurement is a
compliance-based matrix match against statutory requirements, and the second
is employee interface/challenges to evaluate training effectiveness.
Customer-focused Support
Centers on surveying customers to determine their needs and follow up actions
to assess the quality and satisfaction of SOH services provided.
Sample Goal: To provide SOH support, services, and guidance that meet
customer needs.
Self –Assessment
The Self-Assessment section will contain the overall program score and
recommendations for improvement, which can be transferred to a POA&M or
process improvement plan. If the program is in 100% compliance, no program
improvement initiatives are required. If the average score is 3 or less, there
must be improvements needed. Remember, the assessment is supposed to
drive process improvement. What is identified as needing correction must get
attention. Specifically identify WHAT has to be done, WHO should do it,
HOW to tell when it is done, HOW to measure improvement. The assessment
should identify and quantify actions and resources needed to correct process
deficiencies. The self-assessment should also identify further process
improvement opportunities for programs that already meet basic requirements.
These can be included as recommendations for programs that score higher than
3, but lower than 5, without a requirement for special program improvement
initiatives.
CURRENT STATUS:
Summarize the current status of the program as it relates to the goal using supporting
documentation (statistics, metrics, surveys, etc.).
12
ADEQUACY OF RESOURCES:
Identify existing human and funding resources (staff members, non-labor budget,
availability of contract support, etc). Are there enough resources to execute the
program element being assessed? For example, is there adequate funding to provide
safety shoes for employees where required? Determine whether or not existing
resources are adequate.
If resources are inadequate, identify possible solutions to eliminate the shortfall.
Remember that ‘human resources’ can be found within the Safety Office (Safety
Specialist, Safety Engineer, Industrial Hygienist), outside of the Safety Office but
within the Command (Facilities Department, Comptroller Department), and outside the
Command (Public Works Center, Region, Naval Medical Clinic, etc.).
“Funding resources” may be included in the command budget, hazard abatement
funding potential, etc.
Resources can include adequate computers, training aids/facilities, monitoring or
testing equipment, etc.
PERSONNEL PARTICIPATION:
Provide examples of methods in which personnel at all levels of the organization
participate in and/or support the program element. Examples include committee
membership, reporting unsafe/unhealthful working conditions, submitting suggestions
for improvement, responding to surveys, attending training as scheduled, completing
periodic medical exams as scheduled, etc.
It is important that examples of participation include an assessment of effectiveness.
Simply having a committee established is not the same as having effective committee
meetings.
This section answers the following question: “How do employees actively participate
in the SOH Program?”
RECOMMENDATION(s):
Summarize recommendations for improvement.
If plans for improvement are recommended, they will be separate documents.
13
SCORE:
Each PR&MS module (except self-assessment) for each program is assigned a score
using the following criteria:
Scoring Criteria
Scores of 1, 2 or 3 require a Plan for Improvement (PFI). PFI’s can be in any format
but are developed as separate documents and are typically presented to the
Commanding Officer, SOH Policy Council, Committee, Board, etc., for tracking until
goals are achieved (and, consequently, scores improve).
The scoring system is easy to understand and explain to CO’s, executive boards, and
supervisors, and can be easily converted to charts/graphs for comparison.
SELF-ASSESSMENT:
Scores for the 5 modules (Mishap Prevention, Regulatory Compliance, Supervision,
Training, and Customer-Focused Support) are averaged to determine a self-assessment
score for each program review sheet.
The module score is then entered into an excel spreadsheet scoring grid. The
spreadsheet will calculate the averages.
This becomes the overall program score in the Self-Assessment section.
14
Column H – Self-Assessment. As the module scores are entered, the average (of the 5
modules) will be calculated in Column H resulting in the self-assessment score for the
individual program.
On Row 45, overall module scores are averaged. While these averages are useful,
they could provide a false sense of security regarding the overall SOH program
status.
Grid scores make it very easy to spot trouble areas – just look for 1’s, 2’s, and 3’s. To
make it even easier, you can change the font to bold red.
Self-assessment scores provide an individual program success rate. Row 45, Average
Model Scores, averages scores for all modules, providing an indicator of broader
(module) issues.
Once the spreadsheet workbook is completed, graphs will be automatically generated.
If they are set up correctly, the graphs will self-adjust as changes are made to the grid
score sheet. See the “sheets” tab at the bottom of the Excel workbook.
15
RE-ASSESSMENT SCHEDULE
The grid score spreadsheet is equipped with columns to record the date the program
was assessed and the date the program needs to be re-assessed. (Spreadsheet can be
sorted by date to quickly identify deadlines).
All programs must be evaluated at least annually.
Commands may want to assess several programs each quarter to avoid a massive self-
assessment project at the end of the year. (Others may choose to assess all programs at
one time). The worksheet becomes a “living document”.
If deemed necessary, activities should establish criteria for more frequent reviews
(semi-annual, quarterly, etc.) which may be based on:
Overall Program (Self-Assessment) Score of 3 or less
Module Score on an individual program of 1 or 2
Program of special interest or high visibility at the activity
Safety Council recommendation
Example: Ergonomics Program had an overall program score of 2.5. Plans for
Improvement were written and implemented. Program was reassessed 6 months later.
Score improved to 3. Plans for Improvement were reviewed with additional
recommendations. The 6-month re-assessment date was retained because the score had
not been increased above 3. Six months later, the program is reviewed and scores 4.5.
Since significant improvement had occurred, the program review schedule is re-
established at annual intervals.
