ED Decision 2020/002/R

SAFETY POLICY

(a) The safety policy is the means whereby the organisation states its intention to maintain and, where practicable, improve safety levels in all its activities and to minimise its contribution to the risk of an aircraft accident or serious incident as far as is reasonably practicable. It reflects the management’s commitment to safety, and should reflect the organisation’s philosophy of safety management, as well as be the foundation on which the organisation’s management system is built. It serves as a reminder of ā€˜how we do business here’. The creation of a positive safety culture begins with the issuance of a clear, unequivocal policy.

(b) The commitment to apply ā€˜just culture’ principles forms the basis for the organisation’s internal rules describing how ā€˜just culture’ principles are guaranteed and implemented.

(c) For organisations having their principal place of business in a Member State, Regulation (EU) NoĀ 376/2014 defines the ā€˜just culture’ principles to be applied (refer in particular to ArticleĀ 16(11) of that Regulation).
