SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

System; AF Form 978; OMB Control Number 0701-0164.
    Needs and Uses: The Air Force collects mishap and safety-related 
information via AF Form 978, Supervisor Mishap/Incident Report or 
direct input into the Air Force Safety Automated System (AFSAS), via 
the Mishap Worksheet, by an assigned investigator. If an investigator 
uses the AF Form 978, that information will be manually input into the 
AFSAS once completed. Information will be collected in the AFSAS from 
individuals (respondents) who were injured or directly involved in the 
Mishap, or were an eyewitness to the Mishap. On the top of each 
collection instrument, the OMB control number and expiration date, as 
well as our Privacy Act Statement are documented for review by 
respondents. Respondents do not have direct access to the AFSAS or 
collected information.
    Information collected in the AFSAS is utilized directly by assigned 
Safety Managers and Investigators, to evaluate mishap events for 
prevention analysis. Each organization staff will compare the 
information against DoD standards to determine if safety is enforced 
and to evaluate the safety profile of their organization. Included will 
be specific recommendations for risk mitigation/reduction in order to 
preserve assets and save lives. The Air Force Safety Program addresses 
the maintenance of safe and healthful conditions in the workplace or 
the occupational environment. It is applicable to all Air Force 
civilian and military personnel and operations, aviation or 
occupational functions.
    Affected Public: Business or other for-profit; individuals or 
households.
