We’re here! National Airport Safety Week<\/strong> begins today. This year’s program has been designed to remind you of the importance of the efforts required to minimize airside risks and ensure a high level of air safety performance. It’s been said repeatedly that a well-functioning SMS requires a collaborative<\/strong> approach. As a reminder, the theme of the Week is safety culture<\/strong>, i.e. the way in which the members of an organization behave about safety issues.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Quizzes and competitions!\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This year, the SGS team at ADM A\u00e9roports de Montr\u00e9al has decided to test your knowledge of aviation safety. Are you a new recruit or an SGS geek? Do you have the right reflexes, the right behaviors?\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Three quizzes (rookie, apprentice and expert levels) are offered, with one winner earning a $500 gift certificate for travel with the airline of his or her choice<\/strong>! These quizzes will test both your knowledge of SMS and your level of participation in this safety culture.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Lets go<\/a>!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Promoting safety\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

A safety management system, commonly referred to as SMS, is built around several components. Today, we’re going to look at safety promotion, which aims to reinforce the safety culture within an organization.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Our employees actively participate in the development of a safety culture within the company. In other words, our safety culture manifests itself on the one hand in proactive behaviors that lead to a reduction in risk, and on the other hand in our reactive learning following incidents to prevent their recurrence.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Talking about these behaviours, whether during awareness campaigns or simply between colleagues, means taking action to promote safety!\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Our behaviours can be grouped into different sub-cultures:\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
