ED Decision 2025/007/R
SMS FOR SMALL GH ORGANISATIONS
(a) Small GH organisations should develop and implement an SMS that is commensurate with the safety risks of their organisation and activities performed.
(1) The safety policy of these organisations should express a commitment to ensuring adherence to the safety standards required by Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2025/20, improving and maintaining the safety of its activities, complying with the applicable requirements, considering best practices and providing appropriate resources for the discharge of its responsibilities as declared.
(2) Safety risk management may be performed using hazard checklists or similar risk management tools or processes, which are integrated into the activities of the organisation.
(b) While the SMS framework remains the same as for complex GH organisations, the management system and resources should be scalable, and processes and procedures may be simplified and combined. For example, safety risk management may be performed using hazard checklists or similar risk management tools or processes, which are integrated into the activities of the organisation.
(c) The GH organisation should identify a person who fulfils the role of safety manager and is responsible for coordinating the processes and tasks related to safety management. This person may be the accountable manager or a person with an operational role within the organisation, on the condition that they are qualified to perform the safety manager role.
