Who may suspend a trainee's training based on performance?

• A. OS
• B. OJTI
• C. Facility Manager
• D. Training Team

Answer: (A)

The key idea is who can pause a trainee’s training when performance isn’t meeting standards. The on-site supervisor (OS) is the person who directly oversees the trainee during daily operations and has the authority to stop training immediately if safety or performance concerns arise. This role is closest to the real-time work and risk involved, so the OS can pause activities, initiate remediation, and coordinate next steps to get the trainee back on track.

Other roles contribute in important ways, but the OS is the one who makes the immediate suspension decision. The on-the-job training instructor (OJTI) delivers instruction and assessment and may flag issues, but they typically don’t suspend the entire training on their own. The Facility Manager and the Training Team establish policies and oversee program structure, but day-to-day suspension decisions come from the OS to ensure quick, safety-focused action.
