GENTEXT/REMARKS/1. INFORMATION FOR SHORE NAVY ACTIVITIES.  
PER REF A, THE WEB ENABLED SAFETY SYSTEM (WESS) IS THE 
REQUIRED ELECTRONIC REPORTING METHOD FOR ALL NON-AVIATION 
REPORTABLE MISHAPS (I.E NOT REPORTABLE AS AN OPNAVINST 
3750.6R EVENT) AND OCCUPATIONAL ILLNESSES AND INJURIES.  
VARIOUS SHORE MAJOR CLAIMANTS, SUCH AS COMMANDER, NAVY 
INSTALLATIONS (CNI), AND OTHER SHORE ACTIVITIES HAVE, OR 
INTEND TO, PROCURE AND BEGIN TO USE AN AUTOMATED, WEB-
BASED, SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (SMS), SPECIFICALLY THE 
ENTERPRISE SAFETY MANAGEMENT APPLICATION SYSTEM (ESAMS), 
FOR TRACKING ALL SAFETY DOCUMENTATION, INCLUDING MISHAPS.  
CNI HAS MANDATED THAT ALL CNI REGIONS WILL IMPLEMENT ESAMS 
AS THE SINGLE STANDARD SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR SAFETY 
AND OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH (SOH) DATA REQUIREMENTS.  
SUCCESSFUL IMPLEMENTATION OF ESAMS WILL REQUIRE SUPPORT 
FROM REGIONAL/INSTALLATION COMMANDERS.  ESAMS IS CUSTOMIZED 
TO THE ACTIVITY AND ALLOWS PRE-POPULATION OF SOME 
DEMOGRAPHIC FIELDS AND HAS A MODULE FOR RECORDING MISHAP 
INFORMATION.  TO AVOID DUPLICATE MISHAP REPORTING, YET 
STILL ENSURE ALL REQUIRED REPORTS ARE MADE TO NSC THROUGH 
THE DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY'S WEB ENABLED SAFETY SYSTEM 
(WESS), NSC HAS WORKED WITH THE ESAMS CONTRACTOR TO CREATE 
AN INTERFACE WHICH WILL FEED SELECTED ESAMS MISHAP DATA TO 
WESS.  FIELDS WERE ADDED TO ESAMS TO COLLECT DATA REQUIRED 
BY WESS.  THIS WILL HELP ENSURE THAT THE MAJORITY OF THE 
DATA FIELDS REQUIRED BY WESS ARE RECORDED FOR ROUTINE 
INJURIES ENTERED INTO ESAMS.  ESAMS USERS WILL BE ABLE TO 
TRANSMIT MISHAP REPORTS TO WESS AS OF 1 AUGUST 2005.
2.  ESAMS USERS WILL BE NOTIFIED VIA THE ESAMS 
ADMINISTRATOR OF THE PROCESS AND PROCEDURES TO SUBMIT 
REPORTS USING THE ESAMS/WESS INTERFACE.  FOR EXAMPLE, A 
WESS USER'S ACCOUNT MUST BE ON RECORD AT NSC BEFORE ESAMS 
USERS WILL BE ABLE TO TRANSMIT REPORTS.  THIS WILL ALLOW 
NSC TO NOTIFY ESAMS USERS OF INCOMPLETE REPORTS OR OF ANY 
MISSING INFORMATION VIA WESS.  ESAMS USERS WOULD THEN COME 
INTO WESS AND MAKE THE CHANGES OR COMPLETE THE REPORT.  
3. ONLY WORK-RELATED ILLNESS AND INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE, 
AND SOME RECREATIONAL OR OFF-DUTY MISHAP DATA FIELDS WILL 
BE COLLECTED BY ESAMS AND TRANSMITTED TO WESS.  ADDITIONAL 
DATA ON ELABORATE MISHAP EVENTS OR INFREQUENT MISHAP TYPES, 
SUCH AS DIVING, PARACHUTING, ETC., OR CLASS A MISHAPS WITH 
ENDORSEMENTS WILL REQUIRE THE ESAMS USER TO GO TO WESS TO 
ENTER THE REPORTS.  A CONFIGURATION CONTROL BOARD (CCB) FOR 
ESAMS AND A CCB FOR WESS HAVE BEEN ESTABLISHED TO ENSURE 
CONFIGURATION CONTROL AND CONSISTENCY OF CHANGES IN EITHER 
SYSTEM.  
4. QUESTIONS ON ESAMS SHOULD BE DIRECTED TO THE ESAMS HELP 
DESK AT 865-693-0048 OR TO ESAMSWESSFEED@HGWLLC.COM.  
QUESTIONS ON WESS SHOULD BE DIRECTED TO THE WESS HELP DESK 
AT COML 757-444-3520 EXT 7048, DSN 564-3520 EXT 7048, DAILY 
0800-1630 EDT, OR SAFE-WESSHELP@NAVY.MIL.//
