CAE OAA Safety Reporting

CAE OAA Safety Reporting Doc Ref No. QCS-TRM-6 Revision: 0 Owner: GM-SQC FS02

Safety reporting should not just include incidents and accidents, but also any observed hazards which may not yet have led to an accident, such as observations and near misses. We will investigate all occurrences and hazard reports with the objective of identifying safety deficiencies rather than assigning blame. Safety Reporting

Reporting Aircraft Defects and/or Inoperable Equipment • All CAE staff and/or students’ have a responsibility to report all known aircraft defects or discrepancies, as any undue hazard or risk to the safety of flight or personal injury is intolerable. In addition, any and all measures must be taken to ensure all personnel are adequately informed, in the most expeditious means necessary, of any defects or discrepancies that may affect the safety of flight or present a risk and/or hazard that may cause damage or injury. All notifications of an aircraft defect or discrepancy must be documented via an approved reporting system created for such purpose, in which to take the appropriate course of action. Notification of any aircraft defect or discrepancy that is purely or solely verbal is prohibited.
