  2. First Standard • Contracting States shall arrange for the establishment and provision of search and rescue services within their territories. Such services shall be provided on a 24- hour basis. • States must provide for • regions of responsibility, • rescue coordination centers, • communication facilities, • rescue units and equipment. SAR1

  3. ANNEX 12Chapter 3Co-operation • between States within a region, and • between administrators and operations personnel. SAR1

  4. THE GLOBAL CONCEPT • ICAO Goal: To provide a world-wide SAR system that will provide assistance to all persons in distress regardless of nationality or circumstance … • The fastest, most effective and practical way to achieve this goal is to develop regional systems associated with each ocean area and continent. SAR1

  5. Aeronautical SAR is • a high technology & • high reliability service, as is nuclear energy & defence. SAR1

  6. International aviation is: • low risk with high stakes. SAR is: • medium risk with high stakes. SAR1

  7. SAR1

  8. Technology is • smart & complex; and • introduces new realm for error. Cause & effect are more difficult to find out. SAR1

  9. INCONGRUITY • Constant improvements in technology, but human errors remain constant

  10. Demands prompt flexibility • Some organizations have responded to changing demands with: • JRCCs and multi-skilled workers. SAR1

  11. Internal pressures : • Changes in • job functions, • responsibilities, • skill & knowledge requirements. SAR1

  12. INFORMATIONTECHNOLOGY • Greater capabilities /increased complexities. • Skill demands grow and change. • Change begets change. SAR1

  13. New technology • and the incessant • demands of industry • and society have • led to the very • re-conceptualisation • of work.

  14. Traditional organizational boundaries • blurred, • fused and • uncertain. • Is SAR being driven by change ? SAR1

  15. STANDARDS should be considered and be pro-active notre-active. Managers must take charge!

  16. Paradox: • Change demands: • adaptability, • innovation & • sophistication,but • Non-universal Standards • cause weak links,and • intervention of chance will • exploit weaknesses. SAR1

  17. SAR does not need technical investment, but socio-technical investment, acknowledging the human at the core.

  18. The Social Sciences of SAR • human beings need to be: • properly equipped, • supported,and • encouraged. SAR1

  19. Motivation: a product of personality. Personality: dependent on environment.

  20. ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTUREHuman Error can be found in • procedures, • arrangements and • system construction. SAR1

  21. Herald of Free Enterprise Mr Justice Sheen: “The underlying faults lay higher up in the company …From the top to the bottom, the body corporate was infected with the disease of sloppiness”

  22. F28 at Dryden, Ontario Commissioner Moshansky: “Had the system operated effectively, each of the factors might have been identified and corrected before it took on significance. It will be shown that this accident wasa failure in the air transportation system”

  23. ICAO Publication • Human Factors Guidelines for • Air Traffic Management • Systems@ • (Doc 9758) - • requires a • pro-active approach • to be taken to accident prevention. • - a basis for Preventive SAR SAR1

  24. The fundamentals: • While much is changing, • yet much of consequence remains the same, the challenge is to: • uphold the Convention’s standards, • in a spirit of co-operation, • with a vision that extends beyond insular practices & geographic boundaries, • and willing participation in global plan. SAR1

  25. International Provisions CHALLENGES ARE INCREASING • international provisions of Chicago Convention will stand the test, and • give the lead for SAR into 21st century SAR1
