Threat and Error Management is about staying ahead of safety problems by spotting threats in the operating environment and the potential for human errors, then taking timely actions to reduce risk. It treats threats as external or internal conditions that can push the crew toward mistakes, and it views errors as human missteps that can occur even with proper procedures. The goal is to strengthen defenses across the crew and the operating system: maintain sharp situational awareness, manage workload and stress, communicate clearly, follow checklists, and apply corrective actions when a threat is detected or an error occurs. By interrupting the chain of events that can lead to an incident, safety is improved. The other options describe actions that are reactive (post-incident investigation) or narrow operational responses (emergency landings, crew rest scheduling) and don’t capture the proactive, preventive focus of TEM.
