4.1 Internal training, communication and dissemination of safety information

The State aviation organization that has been designated as

placeholder for the SSP shall develop and maintain a safety

training programme that ensures that the appropriate

personnel of its civil aviation organizations involved in the

SSP are qualified to perform SSP duties, as appropriate



The scope of the internal safety training shall be appropriate to each individual’s involvement in the SSP

The training programme should develop staff knowledge about ICAO SARPs related to the SSP and SMS the ICAO SSP framework related guidance material

Internal training programme


Safety training development should include

a documented process to identify training requirements

and training provided

means to assess the effectiveness of training

Rationale for the SSP training programme


The State must ensure that personnel are provided with safety information appropriate to their identified needs, to the extent of their safety functions and responsibilities

Safety training should be delivered by persons with

appropriate knowledge

skills

experience in the applicable subject area

SSP training programme


The State should develop its SSP training programme around the four components of the ICAO SSP framework

There should be three categories of training

A – Indoctrination/initial safety training

B – On the job (OJT) safety training

C – Recurrent safety training

Categories of the SSP training programme


Categories of the SSP training programme

Indoctrination/initial

safety training

New staff are trained onthe basics of SSP/SMS

and their safety responsibilities in

accordance with theirinvolvement in the SSP

programme

On the job (OJT) safety

training

Safety training maybe in the form of

on-the-jobtraining, delivered by

persons with appropriate

knowledge, skills and experience

Recurrent safety

trainingAt least once a year

refresher safety training should be

provided to all appropriate staff


The four levels of SSP training are

1. Generic safety training

2. Initial job-specific safety training

3. Advanced safety training

4. Executive briefing

SSP levels of training


1 – Generic safety training

All relevant State aviation authorities staff

Introduction to the State safety policy and objectives and SSP/SMS fundamentals

Overview of safety roles, responsibilities and accountabilities

Introduction to safety risk management, including hazard reporting

ICAO SARPsOverview of the ICAO SSP and SMS frameworksBasic safety management conceptsIntroduction to hazard identification, including State

and service providers safety reporting systems


2 – Initial job-specific safety training

State aviation authorities technical staff

In-depth knowledge of safety risk management, with emphasis on hazard identification and safety risk assessment

In addition to 1)Hazard identification and safety risk assessment

processesNature and features of different safety reporting systemsSafety data collection, processing and analysis

Note . – Promotion or internal movements within the State aviation authorities may require additional safety training


3 – Advanced safety training

State aviation authorities middle and senior managers

In-depth knowledge of SA, including safety roles, responsibilities, and accountabilities regarding the SA component of an SSP

In addition to 1) and 2)Safety roles, responsibilities and accountabilities related to the SA component of an SSPEstablishment of ALoS related to an SSPMeasurement of safety performance of service provider’s SMS Safety assurance in an SSP environment


4 – High level safety briefing

SSP Accountable Person

To provide a broad perspective of the SSP with emphasis on “what is new/different”

Organization of the SSPSSP roles, safety responsibilities and accountabilitiesSafety policy and objectivesSafety risk managementSafety assuranceSafety promotion

Note. – This training session should be reasonably brief (it should not exceed one-half day)


A training file should be developed for each staff member, including management staff, to assist in identifying and tracking staff safety training requirements and verifying compliance

SSP training programmes should be adapted to fit the needs and complexity of the State aviation activities

Training documentation


4.2 External training, communication and dissemination of safety information

The State shall develop and maintain a formal means for safety communication that ensures thatservice providers’ personnel are fully aware of the SSP

and its relationship with the SMSsafety critical information is conveyed to service providersservice providers understand why particular safety actions

are taken



The State should communicate SSP policies, objectives, processes and procedures to all staff within State aviation organizations

The SSP should be visible in all aspects of the authority’s activities

Safety communication aims toensure that all staff is fully aware of the SSPconvey safety critical informationexplain why particular actions are takenexplain why safety procedures are introduced or changedconvey “nice-to-know” information

Safety communication


The implementation of the SSP leaves unchanged the need for State aviation authorities staff to possess specialized technical knowledge and skills

The implementation of a SSP requires additional skills in areas such as hazard identification and safety risk management

The State must provide the necessary training to develop the additional skills
