ED Decision 2017/007/R

INTERNAL SAFETY REPORTING SCHEME

(a)     The overall purpose of the internal safety reporting scheme is to use reported information to improve the level of the safety performance of the operator and not to attribute blame.

(b)     The objectives of the scheme are to:

(1)     enable an assessment to be made of the safety implications of each relevant incident and accident, including previous similar occurrences, so that any necessary action can be initiated; and

(2)     ensure that knowledge of relevant incidents and accidents is disseminated, so that other persons and operators may learn from them.

(c)      The scheme is an essential part of the overall monitoring function and it is complementary to the normal day-to-day procedures and ‘control’ systems and is not intended to duplicate or supersede any of them. The scheme is a tool to identify those instances where routine procedures have failed.

(d)     All occurrence reports judged reportable by the person submitting the report should be retained as the significance of such reports may only become obvious at a later date.
