Sofema Aviaiton Services SAS are pleased to offer a 1 day training Aviation SMS Risk Assessment Workshop for additional details regarding course content please visit www.sassofia.com

It is a common pitfall that safety management activities may not progress beyond hazard identification and analysis. Or, jump from hazard identification direct to mitigation employment, bypassing the evaluation and prioritization of the safety risks of the consequences of hazards.

Risk management should: create value, and:-

be an integral part of organizational processes;

be part of decision making explicitly address uncertainty and assumptions;

be systematic and structured, be based on the best available information;

be tailorable, and take into account human factors;

be transparent and inclusive, be dynamic, iterative and responsive to change;

be capable of continual improvement and enhancement.

By “putting a value” on the consequences of hazards, the safety management process provides the organization with a principled basis for safety risk decisions and the subsequent allocation of organizational resources to contain the damaging potential of hazards.

Under mature safety management practices, hazard identification is a continuous, ongoing, daily activity. It never stops or rests. It is an integral part of the organizational processes aimed at delivering the services that the organization is in business to deliver.

The objective of safety risk management is to provide the foundation for a balanced allocation of  resources between all assessed safety risks and those safety risks the control and mitigation of which are viable.

Safety risk management is therefore a key component of the safety management process. Its added value, however, lies in the fact that it is a data driven approach to resource allocation, thus defensible and easier to explain.

The 2 day training Aviation SMS Risk Assessment is offered either as an open training or an incomany workshop.

It is a fact that mitigation strategies can never completely mitigate safety risks. It must be accepted that a residual safety risk will always exist, and the organization must ensure that residual safety risks are also under control.

– Abbreviations & Definitions
