Which of the following is NOT a main element of an Integrated Safety Management System (ISM System)?

• A. Public awareness campaigns
• B. Safety program leadership
• C. Risk analysis and evaluation
• D. Operations manager

Answer: (A)

Public awareness campaigns are not a main element of an Integrated Safety Management System. An ISM focuses on the organizational structure and processes that ensure safety is planned, authorized, and executed with hazards identified and controls in place. The core elements include safety program leadership, which establishes expectations, roles, and accountability; risk analysis and evaluation, which identify hazards and determine appropriate controls; and the operations manager, who ensures resources, supervision, and safe performance of work. Public awareness campaigns can support safety culture and communication, but they are not a defining structural element of the ISM framework.
