For a class _________ mishap the final message or report should be completed within ________.

For a class _________ mishap the final message or report should be completed within ________.

• A. For class A and B mishaps, the final message or report should be completed within 48 days
• B. For class C mishaps, the final message should be completed within 15 days
• C. For class A mishaps, the final message within 30 days
• D. For all mishaps, within 60 days

Answer: (A)

Timely, thorough mishap documentation is the focus. For higher-severity mishaps, the final message or report is due within 48 days. This window allows enough time to conduct a complete investigation—gathering facts, interviewing witnesses, reviewing records, and performing root-cause analysis—while still delivering guidance promptly to prevent recurrence. Class C events are handled with a shorter deadline (typically around 15 days) because they are less severe and can be documented quickly without sacrificing accuracy. A single 60-day deadline for all mishaps ignores the needed prioritization between event severities and would slow down corrective actions for the most serious incidents. So, the correct approach is that class A and B mishaps require the final report within 48 days.
