ED Decision 2017/001/R

OTHER MEASURES RELATED TO SAFETY RISKS — PROXIES

Proxies for safety risk, used as safety criteria for those parts of the functional system affected by the change, can only be employed when:

(a)     a justifiable causal relationship exists between the proxy and the harmful effect, e.g. proxy increase/decrease causes risk increase/decrease;

(b)     a proxy is sufficiently isolated from other proxies to be treated independently; and

(c)      the proxy is measurable, quantitatively or qualitatively, to an adequate degree of certainty.
