- Does corrective training have to be related to the dificiency?
- yes. The training, instruction, or correction given to a soldier to correct deficiencies must be directly related to the deficiency. Orient the corrective action to improving the soldier’s performance in their problem area.
- Can corrective measures be taken after normal duty hours?
- yes. You may take corrective measures after normal duty hours. Such measures assume the nature of the training or instruction, not punishment. Corrective training should continue only until the training deficiency is overcome. All levels of command should take care to ensure that training and instruction are not used in an oppressive manner to evade the procedural safeguards in imposing nonjudical punishment. Do not make notes in soldiers’ official records of deficiencies satisfactorily corrected by means of training and instruction.
- What are the steps for on the spot correction?
- Correct the soldier. Attack the performance, never the person. Give one correction at a time. Do not dump. Don’t keep bringing it up — when the correction is over, it is over.
- What are the steps and purpose of on the spot inspections?
- Preparation Conduct. Follow-up. Making an informal, unscheduled check of equipment, soldiers or quarters is called an on-the-spot inspection. Stopping to check the tag on a fire extinguisher as you walk through a maintenance bay is an example of an on-the-spot inspection. Another example is checking the condition of the trash dumpster area in back of the orderly room. For any inspection, the steps are the same.
