Safety Assurance Component of Four Pillars of Aviation Safety Management

Without a doubt, your Civil Aviation Authorities use ICAO document 9859 to generate the requirements you need to follow to satisfy aviation safety management systems (SMS) requirements. ICAO Document 9859 continues to strongly influence countries to develop effective SMS frameworks based on the following four components or "pillars":

Safety Policies, procedures, process measures, assessments and controls are implemented. Aviation service providers incorporate regular data collection, safety analysis, risk assessment and risk management reviews to assure SMS safety goals are realized. ICAO, FAA, EASA, Transport Canada requires aviation service providers with SMS programs to have safety assurance processes in effect.
  1. Safety Policy
  2. Safety Risk Management
  3. Safety Assurance
  4. Safety Promotion

Your aviation SMS database software programs should follow these four well-known pillars. Safety management system databases save safety managers time and money. You are encouraged to build or purchase a system. However, the system will not be effective unless you use it. Whether your aviation hazard database starts with a simple hazard reporting tool, or a very sophisticated aviation risk assessment database program, you still need to ensure your program addresses these four pillars.

Safety Assurance Ensures Policies, Controls & Assessments are Implemented

Safety Assurance

Safety assurance ensures that aviation service providers continuously practice their safety program and that their safety program continues to remain effective even as their operating environment changes. Safety assurance may turn the focus to quality management; therefore, a safety management system contains many elements of a quality management system.
