This instruction implements the Risk Management (RM) guidance within Air Force Policy
Directive (AFPD) 90-8, Environment, Safety, and Occupational Health Management and Risk
Management. It provides an overarching framework for Air Force Risk Management (AF RM)
and establishes the requirement to integrate and sustain RM throughout the Air Force (AF) as a
risk reduction process. AF RM also assists leaders in identifying and controlling safety and health
hazards to make informed decisions. It assigns responsibilities for AF RM process elements and
contains process management information for the Safety and Occupational Health program. It
applies to all Regular Air Force, Air Force Reserve (AFR) and Air National Guard (ANG) military

references to Major Commands (MAJCOMs). This Air Force Instruction (AFI) may be
supplemented at any level, but all supplements must be routed to the Air Force Chief of Safety
(AF/SE), usaf.pentagon.af-se.mbx.af-se-workflow@mail.mil for coordination prior to
certification and approval. Refer recommended changes and questions about this publication to the
