Management of hazards related to new business models of commercial air transport operators

Practical guide

This Practical Guide on ‘Management of hazards related to new business models of commercial air transport operators’ is part of EASA’s safety promotion strategy. The Guide has been developed by a group of dedicated safety management managers from Europe’s airline industry and includes a number of easy to use and practical examples for SMS managers for hazard identification and management in the following five areas:

  1. outsourcing of safety critical services,
  2. leasing agreements,
  3. interoperability, where several airlines belong to the same parent company or holding,
  4. different employment models within the airline,
  5. increased mobility & turnover of pilots.
