Safety Management System Best Suited for Airlines, Airports, MROs, FBOs Managing ICAO Compliant SMS Programs

Welcome to Worley Group's SMS.

The discipline of aviation adheres to time-tested standards and practices that are as appropriate for RPAS as they are for traditional aircraft. Basing operations on an Aviation Safety Management System (SMS) is one such practice. An Aviation SMS is essentially a quality control system applied to aviation safety.

Key industry standards adopted by Worley and by many of our clients require that we operate RPAS under an SMS. These include Flight Safety Foundation’s Basic Aviation Risk Standard for RPAS and International Association for Oil & Gas Producers Aircraft Management Guidelines – Unmanned Aircraft Systems.

Worley Group’s SMS conforms to the International Civil Aviation Organization’s Safety Management Manual, Chapter 5, Safety Management Systems.

An SMS is built on four pillars:

· Safety Policy & Objectives

· Roles & Responsibilities of Key Personnel

· Safety Risk Management & Safety Assurance

· Safety Training & Promotion

A note on Hazard Reporting... The Worley SMS Safety Policy includes this statement:

All personnel are encouraged to help identify hazards, systemic errors, and ways of improving safety, and may do so confidentially if desired. A confidential reporting system is in place for personnel to report hazards, accidents, incidents, and safety issues without fear of reprisal.

An aviation SMS must allow for confidential and anonymous reporting, and must allow anyone involved in the operation to report hazards, even if they are not Worley staff; e.g. clients or subcontractors. Worley’s primary hazard reporting system does not meet these aviation-specific requirements; therefore, R3 and the Leadership Team have approved SMSPro as the hazard reporting system for aviation safety.

If you are a Worley employee and need to report a hazard that is not related to aviation, please use the Assurance System.
