Safety Culture

NLR has a seven step safety culture improvement approach that helps organisations in the aviation industry to be number 1 in safety. This is done by reinforcing weak safety culture areas and fully exploiting strong areas, unlike other services that provide a one-off, fragmented view on your safety culture without advice about how to take your organization to the next level of safety culture maturity.

We offer a solution that is tailored to your requests and organization, which provides:

• A safety culture framework of detailed, interrelated safety culture dimensions and indicators which is selected as the best practice for safety culture assessments by the European Strategic Safety Initiative (ESSI). ESSI represents Europe’s main stakeholders such as EASA, IATA, Airbus and EUROCONTROL.
• A reliable safety culture assessment service to the aviation industry;
• An opportunity for all personnel to express their views on safety culture and ways for improvement, irrespective of the size of the assessed organisation;
• Means to monitor improvement processes;
• Safety culture benchmarking opportunities in all sectors of the aviation industry;
• Highly relevant results due to close interaction with the organizations and first-hand input from employees from all levels of the organization.
• The seven step safety culture improvement approach ranges from expert advice about follow-up steps and potential interventions, to assistance in the change management process to accomplish actual changes in safe behaviour and safety performance.
