Safety and Security in Air Traffic Management

• 2.1 Safety management systems and programmes
• 2.2 Safety certification of ATM systems
• 2.3 Safety regulation
• 2.4 Global Aviation Safety Plan (GASP)
• 2.5 Safety and security of the ATM
  infrastructure

3
Basis for Safety Management

• Accidents and incidents traced to some form of
  human error
• As well as radar screen, tower and maintenance
  workshop, errors occur at management level
• Organizational Accident
• Safety managed on organizational basis

4
Safety Management System

• Safety management system provides organizations
• the capacity to anticipate and address safety
  issues before they lead to an incident or
  accident.
• the ability to deal effectively with accidents
  and near misses so that valuable lessons are
  applied to improve safety and efficiency.

5
Safety Management Programme

• Day to day management - Service provider SMS
• State responsibility - regulation
• Two components
• Safety regulatory and oversight function -State
• Safety management system ATS provider(s)

6
Current Requirements

• Amendment 40 to Annex 11
• Implement systematic and appropriate ATS safety
  management programme that
• identifies actual and potential hazards and
  determines the need for remedial action
• ensures that remedial action necessary to
  maintain an acceptable level of safety is
  implemented and
• provides for continuous monitoring and regular
  assessment of the safety level achieved.

Implementation

• PANS-ATM
• Manual on Safety Management for Air Traffic
  Services

9
The next step?

• Uniform approach
• Globally standardised safety management processes
  and practices
• Avoids unnecessary duplication
• Collect right data to monitor level of safety
• Broader view of ATM
• System Safety Approach

Lifecycle management

• Safety not an add on
• Design safety into the whole system
• Life cycles of a system
• from the
• concept phase
• design and development phase
• operation and maintenance phase.

12
System Safety Approach

• Uniform approach
• All activities and resources are included
• Lifecycle management
• Globally standardised safety management processes
  and practices

13
Regulation

• Autonomy of ATM service providers
• Relationship with State
• Separation of provider and regulator
• Standardized approach to regulation
• Regulatory frameworks and strong cooperation
  between regulatory authorities
• Separation of regulation from service provision
• Certification of service providers

14
Global Aviation Safety Plan (GASP)

• Reduce worldwide accident rates
• Facilitate the communication of safety-related
  information
• Safety programmes complementary
• USOAP is a key element
• Expansion to ATM

15
Security

• Improved security of ATM systems and information
• Provides assistance and information
• In Flight Emergency Response

16
Conference outcomes?

• Understanding of safety issues
• new Manual on Safety Management for Air Traffic
  Services
• GASPs role in improving safety
• Adoption of system safety approach
• Standardized cooperative ATM Regulation
• Measures to address security of ATM
