When adequate time exists, risk assessments must be made using what form?

• A. DD Form 2977
• B. DD Form 2980
• C. DA Form 2390
• D. DD Form 2976

Answer: (A)

A formal risk assessment is documented on the Risk Assessment Worksheet, DD Form 2977. When there is adequate time, this worksheet guides you through identifying potential hazards, evaluating the likelihood and consequences of each hazard, and assigning a risk level. It also records the implemented controls and the remaining (residual) risk. Using this standard form ensures a structured, repeatable process and provides an auditable record for decision-makers before proceeding with operations.
