Introduction
A safety Management System (SMS) is a proactive management system that focuses on improved levels of operational safety beyond regulatory minimums by treating safety as an integrated element of the organization’s core management system.
With SMS we have a set of regulations, which allow the Industry to establish best-practice that fits different cultures and place the main emphasis and duty on improving safety performance. This requires a real “team effort” as regulators and airlines are all part of one large system. Working as a team it will be possible to improve an already highly impressive safety record and allow organizations to conduct more of their own oversight and assurance.
This 1-day training course is perfect to introduce your employees to your safety management system and how they can meet their obligations within the organization. How to develop an understanding of the organization’s responsibility and to consider the roles and responsibilities of the key managers and executives. How everyone can play a role in assisting to support and deliver a strong SMS system.
In addition, we should understand the opportunities presented by SMS as a “Management System” which can be used to improve and develop the business as well as optimize for risk exposure.
Attendees will be provided with a detailed understanding of the core attributes of an outstanding World Class Safety Management System.
