Positioning airports for safety management system success

Stephen Thompson

Journal of Airport Management, 2016, vol. 10, issue 4, 334-342

Abstract: Safety management systems (SMS) offer airports a new structure and set of tools that enable the enhancement of current safety programmes and facilitate the implementation of initiatives to improve public and employee safety. Whether anticipating future regulatory guidance or voluntarily capitalising on the new methodology, airport operators can position themselves for SMS success. By cultivating stakeholder relationships, proactively managing risk, and maximising the use of available data, airports can realise the scalable advantages of SMS.
