SAFETY MANGEMENT

BASIC SAFETY CONCEPT The concept of safety. The evolution of safety thinking. Accident causation. The organizational accident. People, operation contexts and safety (SHEL

model) Errors and violations.

CONCEPT OF SAFETY

Depending on the perspective, the concept of safety in aviation may have different connotations, such as:

zero accidents or serious incidents freedom from hazards attitudes of employees of aviation

organizations towards unsafe acts and conditions

error avoidance and regulatory compliance. 

EVOLUTION OF SAFETY THINKING

Safety thinking are considered in below options;

Why? How? What? Who? When?

ACCIDENT CAUSATIONS

Basicaly accident causation is by two things;

Active failures – Actions or inactions, including errors and violations, which have an immediate adverse effect.

Latent conditions – Evident once the system’s defenses have been breached.

ORGANIZATIONAL ACCIDENT

These are activities over which any organisation has a reasonable degree of direct control.

It includes; Policy making Planning Communication Allocation of resources supervision

PEOPLE, OPERATIONAL CONTEXTS AND SAFETY

Combination of people, operational contexts and safety includes;

Checklist Strategies to control operational errors Errors and violations Effective safety reporting

SAFETY PERFORMANCE MONITORING AND MEASUREMENT

Responsibility Authority Procedures Controls Interfaces Process measures

ORGANIZATION PROCESS FOR RESILIENCE ENGINEERING

CONCLUSION

Many resilience engineering concepts require a compatible SMS. This SMS is development stems from the same paradigm as resilience engineering. Important concepts have been identified but much work still has to be done.

OUTLOOK FOR THE FUTURE

Strength of chain is known from its weakest link.

Level of preparedness of the states having aviation connectivity with a particular state is most critical.

Some are soft in their approach by culture, some are soft by design, and some are soft as they cannot afford cost.

ICAO has a role to play. India should be more proactive in the

international forum.
