FAA, ICAO SMS Manuals
Aviation safety, like all core business functions in the airline industry (operations, maintenance, finance, and human resources) requires documented procedures and programs to ensure regulatory compliance as well as achieve maximum standardization, efficiency and productivity.
An effective aviation safety management system (SMS) integrates safety related policies, processes and procedures achieving safety assurance through the collection and analysis of safety-related data, mitigating risk and promoting a vibrant safety culture. This is achieved in part through an SMS Manual which documents the policies, procedures and responsibilities.
Effective SMS manuals should be organized by the four SMS “pillars" or components
- Safety Policy
- Safety Risk Management;
- Safety Assurance; and
- Safety Promotion.
