Building Fatigue Management into Safety Systems

Fatigue Issues and Fatigue Management Solutions for an HF-Compliant SMS

CONFERENCE OVERVIEW

The conference provides information and guidance on the role of Human Factors (HF) as part of a Safety Management System, focussing on Fatigue and Fatigue Management tools (FRMS). This reflects increasing industry concern and regulatory activity, particularly Flight Time Limitations (FTL) provisions in OPS 0.55 which state that operators must establish a fatigue risk strategy as part of their SMS.

Capt. Daniel Maurino, whose internationally recognized work at ICAO included more than ten years defining the authoritative ICAO SMS model, introduces the SMS concept and explains its relationship to HF and FRMS. Other speakers discuss specific Fatigue issues and risks in Scheduled. Charter, Corporate Operators, Military and General Aviation sectors, and examine specific FRMS applications.
