FOM Strategy - Explanation of, and rationale for the airline’s FOM activities.
4.
FOM Activities - Hazards are reported and actions are taken in a timely manner.

Safety Feedback Activities - The effects of safety actions are evaluated.
These five key elements are described in more detail below.
Airline Safety Policy
Proactive safety management requires the involvement of staff at all levels of an organization.
Airline Safety Policy defines the safety standards of the operation (flight, ground and maintenance) and determines the safety culture; it is a high level statement of desired airline’s safety performance that provides:
1.
Guidance to everyone in the airline who has an impact on safety;
2.
Direction to enable safety related activities to be purposeful and manageable.
WHAT IS FOM ?
The organizational size of the airline, the number of aircraft, and the complexity of the flight operations guide the contents of the policy.
The policy should address such points as:
.
The appointment of a safety officer(s).
.
Provision of adequate resources to address safety concerns.
.
Relations between the operator, its flight crews and the regulatory authority concerning safety information.*
.
Communication about safety issues (information that is published outside the FOM department must be de-identified).
*(An agreement with flight crews for strict anonymity and confidentiality in use of the data, and with all other personnel involved to ensure total cooperation in the project is an essential point of safety policy).
Flight Operations Risk Profile
A Flight Operations Risk Profile is a documented overview of the risks that are generally experienced by the airline flight operations. It is like a map that charts the “contours” of the risk areas so that critical elements can be proactively identified and managed. It is the basis on which the FOM system is operated. A Flight Operations Risk Profile is unique to a specific airline.
The Flight Operations Risk Profile determines:
.
The overall level of management needed for consistently safe flight operations;
.
The specific areas of higher risk that the airline may experience.
A Flight Operations Risk Profile is a “living document” that must be periodically updated. A good practice is to update the Flight Operations Risk Profile every three years, and each time an operational change is introduced.
