We are now suffering for fashion or whatever fever of Aviation Operational Safety. Everybody talks about Operational Safety. One of the reasons is because the set up of a Safety Management System is between the obligations of the airport operator in order to ensure that operations are carried out in a demonstrably controlled way and are improved where necessary.
Oftentimes the differentiation between hazards and safety risks is a source of difficulty and confusion;it happens that a clear understanding of the difference between these two components is paramount of the practice of safety management and in particular of Safety Management Systems primarily because hazard identification and safety risk management are the hub processes involved in the management of safety.
