What is IOSA? A standardized and structured airline safety audit

programme Internationally recognized operational standards A model for operational safety/quality

management

A way to reduce the number of industry audits

A model to improve global operational safety

IOSA Progress

77 audits completed; 36 more contracts signed;

43 airlines on the Registry; 50 audits avoided;

State support growing, exemplified by Resolution at ICAO Assembly;

IOSA is not designed to replace Regulatory Oversight!But it can most definitely complement it

IOSA Findings: Conformity to Standards

Safety in Africa

Almost 25% of accidents occurred in Africa.

Main contributing factors: Deficiencies in safety management. Poor training systems. Flight crew proficiency issues.

IATA “Partnership for Safety” Training

Practical IOSA awareness seminars

Gap Analysis Provide an assessment of the airline

Implementation IATA members in developing regions

Starting with AFI, then other regions.

IATA financing plus matching funds

Safety Data Management & AnalysisAccidents: Annual IATA Safety Report

Lessons learned incorporated into future safety initiatives.

Incidents: STEADES Quarterly reports highlight leading incident issues. Custom analysis of specific areas of concern.

Normal Operations: FDA Service Unique window into day to day operational standards. Specific occurrences can be analyzed and animated for training purposes.

Ground Damage Prevention Programme

Why ?

$4 B

damage

per year

Ground Damage - Areas of Concern Cargo and Baggage Loading/Unloading

Airbridge/Jetway Operations

Ground Maintenance Operations

Ground Damage Prevention Programme Major Deliverables Conduct an awareness campaign on GDPP Obtain buy-in from concerned stakeholders Complete threat analysis Short term action plan to address weak areas Cost tracking tool - direct costs of ground damage Develop a SMS certification programme for service

providers Establish harmonised incident/accident database

Cargo Safety

Cargo operations - 33% of the 2004 accidents Europe and North America negligible contributors

Any accidents damage public confidence Involve States through ICAO Study higher threat areas, e.g wet lease Identify the best areas to focus action

Develop IOSA for all-cargo operations Implement ASET recommendations on cargo

accident prevention

Reduce turbulence-related cabin crew injury rate by 50% by 2008

Reduce inadvertent slide deployment rate by half by 2008

Cabin safety toolkit in development Includes training and incident analysis manual Include research conducted for future A380 operators Toolkit ready Q3 2005

Cabin Safety

Aviation English Training and Testing

Language used in ATC comms has been a contributory factor in many fatal accidents

New provisions for language proficiency and ATC phraseology adopted by ICAO

Compliance date is March 2008 To assist the industry, IATA has developed new

training and testing services.

Fuel Tank Safety IATA fully agrees to the need for improvements in the

area of fuel tank safety

Various investigative analyses have confirmed the effectiveness of alternate means of compliance

IATA therefore strongly supports a joint industry effort to specify the final system modification and inspection requirements, avoiding retrofits for in-service aircraft

Conclusion - challenges

Seek greater Regulatory Authority buy-in to IOSA

How can we better align Industry and State safety programmes?

How can we streamline/coordinate these programmes? It’s not a competition!Co-operation for safety improvement
