What type of findings are considered minor in the context of ATSEP evaluations?

In the context of ATSEP (Air Traffic Safety Electronics Personnel) evaluations, minor findings are characterized as deficiencies that violate established guidance but do not pose an immediate threat to safety or operational integrity. These types of deficiencies are often seen as less urgent, allowing time to address them without immediate impacts on the mission or operations.

Such findings may include procedural non-adherence or documentation issues that, while important to rectify, do not compromise the overall safety protocols in place. It is crucial for organizations to identify and correct these minor deficiencies to ensure continued adherence to established standards and improve future operations.

In contrast, findings that threaten mission integrity, require immediate correction, or lead to training failures represent more significant risks and require prompt action to mitigate any potential impact on safety and operational effectiveness. Thus, the correct identification of minor deficiencies serves to help prioritize corrective actions and focus on resolving the most critical issues first.
