  2. WESS – Account Management • All WESS users, including those simply reviewing or viewing reports, must hold a WESS account. • WESS was designed to accommodate a wide variety of users, each with their own mishap report processing responsibilities and procedures. WESS is flexible in that it allows each command or chain of command to determine the procedures that are implemented within its area of responsibility. • To allow maximum flexibility in how a command or activity manages their use of the WESS system, each command or activity will designate their own WESS account Safety Authority. • The Safety Authority is the command’s overall manager of the WESS accounts for the command, any subordinate commands, and/or WESS users within the organization. The responsibilities of the Safety Authority are outlined in the following slides.

  3. What is a Safety Authority? The Safety Authority (SA)is a WESS User (Account Holder) with the command-designated authority to Establish and Manage WESS Accounts for other Users within a single Command/Activity or a group of Commands/Activities.

Will Electronically Receive All Requests for WESS Accounts from within their Command/Activity/AOR.
