Downgraded situations, complex operations and operations performed
infrequently temporarily increase risk.
Downgraded situations (temporarily disabled automated safety systems,
temporary seals, etc.):
• Must be reported to the unit’s operations manager;
• Measures to mitigate the resultant risks must be defined, approved, applied and
regularly checked;
• A list of “downgraded situations” is updated daily and communicated to the personnel
concerned.
