Study Notes

Safety Management Systems

  • Safety Management Systems (SMS) are used in various industries, including aviation, chemical, oil, construction, and others.
  • Growing awareness of safety and serious accidents have led to increased laws, rules, and regulations.
  • Major accidents, such as Bhopal, Three Mile Island, Chernobyl, and Seveso, spurred safety legislation development.
  • Specialized safety organizations arose in the 1970s, including OSHA (US), HSE (UK), and WSO.
  • International standards from organizations like ISO, ILO, ICAO, IAEA, HSE, NASA, and others are crucial for safety standards.

Introduction-General

  • Safety is not accidental and requires vigilance; it's a critical factor in various industries, notably aviation.
  • Safety signals are present in daily life, from "wet floor" warnings to security checks at airports
  • Minimum training standards for roles like flight attendants are part of safety protocols.
  • Safety considerations are essential in aviation for prompt evacuation during emergencies.

Annex 19 and ICAO Doc 9859

  • Increased air traffic necessitates proactive safety measures to manage capacity growth through regulatory and infrastructure improvements.
  • Annex 19 promotes State management of safety at a national level, integrating overall safety performance across all aspects of service provision.
  • ICAO Document 9859, the Safety Management Manual, was published in 2018, complemented by previous editions in 2006, 2009, 2013.

Annex 19

  • Annex 19 was adopted by the Council in 2013, becoming applicable in 2013.
  • It was published in various languages.
  • Amendment 1 was adopted in 2016, and the 2nd edition became applicable in 2019.
  • Annex 19 consolidated safety management provisions from other Annexes(e.g., Annex 1,6,8,11,13,14).

Safety Management System (SMS)

  • Annex 19's Chapter 4 outlines the SMSs employed by service providers, including aspects as in Appendix 2.
  • The chapter also covers SMSs for international general aviation operators.
  • Chapter 5 addresses the collection, analysis, protection, sharing, and exchange of safety data and information.
  • Appendix 3 provides principles for protecting safety data, information, and related sources.

Safety Management Manual (SMM):

  • SMM, fourth edition, was published in 2018, building on previous editions.
  • It's divided into 9 chapters, categorized into three themes: fundamentals, developing safety intelligence, and implementing safety management.

Safety Management Functions:

  • The core aim of safety management is mitigating risks before accidents or incidents occur.
  • States use a structured approach to manage their aviation safety performance.
  • Implementation in a formal and institutionalized way involves State Safety Programmes (SSP) and safety management systems (SMSs.
  • The aviation system can’t be completely free of hazards, risks, human error and consequences.

Management Dilemma

  • Safety and profitability are linked in organizations delivering services.
  • Balancing output with acceptable safety risks and costs of implementing safety regulations, is essential.
  • Avoiding excessive safety investment (which could be unprofitable) is a crucial aspect.
  • Improvements in safety performance can sometimes improve overall production performance.
