Managing Aviation Safety Procedures

Course Summary

Due to the nature of aviation, many health and safety risks are unavoidable. Strict and extensive health and safety standards should be followed to combat these risks and minimise potential hazards. Alongside these standards, an organisation must create its safety procedures to protect the well-being of employees and customers.

 

It is essential to have detailed risk management strategies to create and manage effective safety procedures. Risk management surrounds all areas, starting with identifying risks and hazards and their potential detriment. Once identified, hazards must be prioritised and categorised based on various factors, including damage potential and probability. With this information, individuals will be able to establish effective safety procedures.

 

Utilising hazard information, those responsible can create safety procedures that outline and explain the ideal steps to take in a crisis. All safety procedures must also be readable and accessible to anyone needing access. 


Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:

  • Understand the vitality of aviation safety procedures within an aviation organisation.
  • ٌeview local and regional laws and legislation regarding health and safety to ensure all procedures are compliant.
  • Explain the fundamental concepts behind safety management systems (SMS) as defined by primary aviation organisations.
  • Recognise the consequences of poor safety procedures on employees and customers.
  • Utilise various methods and techniques to identify and prioritise hazards and risks accurately.
  • Establish effective strategies to enhance existing safety procedures and measure procedure performance.
  • Promote a workplace culture that is aware of all safety procedures, and is confident in the roles of leadership, system structure and reporting systems.

This course is designed for anyone in the aviation industry responsible for managing health and safety. It would be most beneficial for:

 

  • Operations Managers
  • HSE Officers
  • HR Personnel
  • Risk Managers
  • Risk Analysts
  • Senior Executives
  • Compliance Officers

This course uses a variety of adult learning styles to aid full understanding and comprehension. Participants will review real-world examples of safety procedures within aviation organisations to highlight essential details, major risks and areas that may be improved.

 

Through a combination of learning methods, including seminars, group discussions, and individual and group activities, the participants will have ample opportunities to develop their knowledge of the taught content. To better guarantee full comprehension, participants will work alongside one another to create their own safety procedures and can offer and receive constructive feedback from others.
