Safety is one of core business functions of the company. We are committed to developing, implementing, maintaining and constantly improving strategies and processes to ensure that all our aviation activities take place under a balanced allocation of organizational resources, aimed at achieving highest level of safety performance and meeting regulatory requirements, while delivering our services.

All levels of management and all employees are responsible and accountable for their actions and safety performance, starting with myself as Accountable Manager. Our commitment is to:

• Clearly define for all staff, managers and employees alike, their accountabilities and responsibilities for the delivery of the organization’s safety performance and the performance of our safety management system;

• Ensure that no action will be taken against any employee who discloses a safety concern through the hazard reporting system, unless such disclosure indicates, beyond any reasonable doubt, an illegal act, gross negligence, or a deliberate or willful disregard of regulations or procedures;
• Comply with and, wherever possible, exceed, legislative and regulatory requirements and standards;
• Ensure that sufficient skilled and trained human resources are available to implement safety strategies and processes;
