How should operators monitor individuals between reevaluation intervals to ensure that the individuals continue to remain properly qualified?
The rule requires that an operator must evaluate an individual if the operator has reason to believe that the individual is no longer qualified to perform a covered task. Therefore, the operator must, in addition to a schedule of covered task-specific required reevaluation intervals (see FAQ 5.6), have some method of monitoring the performance of individuals performing covered tasks. The method may be as simple as a periodic performance review that is documented by the individual’s supervisor, signed by both the individual and his/her supervisor, and in which the individual’s performance strengths and limitations are discussed. The continuing evaluation method might also include specific job performance measures, or audit reports on the individual’s performance developed by an independent internal audit group.
