12.11.3 If the results of the analysis show that the risk remains intolerable then further mitigation must be put in place.
There is of course always risk present even after adequate risk mitigation measures are in place, and some
residual risks are greater than others. At this level, mitigation may be considered acceptable on the basis that
the no further practicable measures can be put in place for this situation.
12.11.4 The ALARP principle is shown below in figure 12-2.

12.12 FURTHER TRAINING REQUIREMENTS
12.12.1 In order to perform the gap analysis, the results from the above analysis must be compared to the chosen
MASS operators current training and knowledge. From here, gaps in the requirements based on the MASS
operations can be identified.
12.12.2 Operation Assessed. Once all risks are reduced to a tolerable ALARP level, then the MASS operation can be
considered as assessed. Gaps should then be known, and mitigation actions listed for completion, which should
consist of outstanding training requirements.
12.12.3 Training Matrix. The items listed on the potential operators current training levels, and any training identified to
fill operational gaps identified during the process, can make up the operators’ training matrix and used in future
for similar operations.
