Sofema Aviation Service www.sassofia.com looks at SMS reporting from the EASA perspective
What do we mean by Safety Occurrence Reporting?
We use the term Safety Occurrence to identify as a collective term which is used to embrace all events which have, or could have significance in the context of aviation safety.
Events identified may in fact range from minor events which are deemed to have a potential for an impact on safety through to incidents or events that should be reported to more serious events including serious incidents and accidents.
Building a Reporting Culture
The willingness to report, safety related exposures is a significant measure when we are considering the effectiveness of Safety Management System.
