SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS TRAINING

    A Safety Management System is just that; a system. It is a system that includes what the FAA refers to as the Four Pillars of Safety. The Four Pillars are 1) Policy, 2) Safety Risk Management, 3) Safety Assurance and Internal Evaluation, and 4) Safety Promotion. All of these components are linked together to create a culture that promotes safety by setting policies, identifying and reducing risks, providing a means for continuous assessment of the system through internal and external audits, and promoting safety through various methods and mediums.

    At first, an SMS seems a little overwhelming. In actuality, you may already have many of these components and processes in place. A few components will need to be developed. Then all of these components will be tied together to form your functional SMS. Our 3-day SMS course will give you the basic tools and knowledge you will need to develop your own company's Safety Management System.
