2nd EASA Ground Handling Implementation Webinar

Get ready on time!
 

The EU Ground Handling safety regulations are effective and will become applicable from 27 March 2028.
Between 2025 and 2028, EASA will organise a series of webinars aimed at helping the European ground handling (GH) industry to prepare for the implementation of the new GH safety rules.

This is the 2nd EASA Ground Handling Implementation Webinar and these are the topics we are going to handle:
- Management system, focusing on safety management systems (SMS), industry standards, and alleviations in the rules for small GH organisations;
- Impact of the GH Regulations on aerodromes and aircraft operators and their responsibilities:
1. SMS – examples of implementation and challenges (incl. safety culture and just culture)
2. Proportionality of rules – alleviations for small organisations
3. Implementation of Industry standards for compliance with Annexes I and II of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2025/20 (Industry audit programmes will be addressed in Webinar 3)
4. What changes and what doesn’t change in the responsibilities of aircraft operators and aerodrome operators with the application of the GH Regulations.
