C.1. Site Management and Control

Management of the Instillation The Environmental Management System

SR Technics Ireland Limited operates an environmental management system (EMS) to manage its environmental issues. This system was developed in-house. An Environmental Policy (attachment number C.la) has been created for the facility and it is this policy that acts as a foundation for the EMS. The Environmental Policy is communicated to the workforce via environmental notice boards. The organisational chart (attachment number C.lb) shows the overall organisational structure along with the full environment management team. Environmental responsibilities are defined in the individual job descriptions.

The Environmental Committee

The EMS is structured as a decentralised body within the organisation. As part of the EMS an Environmental Committee has been established which is comprised of key management, specialists and representatives from each section in the Organisation. The Committee is headed by the Facilities Maintenance Manager and is supported by the Environment Officer. The Committee meets on the last Tuesday of each month with minutes taken and distributed to the attendees and

copied to key managers in areas of potentially high environmental impact.

The Environment Management Committee communicates the principals of the Integrated Pollution Control (IPC) Licence to all employees, with particular emphasis on:

> Meeting Licence Conditions,

> Continual Environmental Improvements (including waste minimization).

The Committee undertakes to ensure that staff have Environmental awareness in general and aims to generate and promote em environmental improvements. This involves ident implementation of environmental improvement projects. Receive

'B 5 DEC 2805

The Environmental Management Programme

As part of the company's EMS SR Technics has identified processes that impact on the environment significantly. These are updated each year and an environmental management programme (EMP - Attachment C.lc) has been created to manage these implications. As part of the programme the various forms of media are used to encourage the workforce to participate and identify areas for improvement. Several environmental improvements have been suggested and implemented such as soft drink can and bottle recycling, printer

cartridge recycling, packaging reuse, etc. The environmental committee reviews how the EMP is progressing on a quarterly basis and also plays an important role in highlighting areas for improvement. There is an annual Environment Management review where a presentation is given to senior management on the environmental performance of the facility.

Environmental Training

SR Technics utilises the in-house training school to develop and implement environmental training programmes. Training is implemented as per procedure ProcE04.Gen (Training). All persons involved in operations that may have potentially significant environmental impacts are trained as part of this system. The need for regular technical training updates relating to aircraft means that there are continual environmental updates delivered to the attendees. Induction training is given to new employees and includes an environmental module.

Preventive Maintenance

A system of preventive maintenance (PM) is operated at the facility and regular checks are carried out on areaditems of plant that have been identified as environmentally sensitive. Calibration is carried out at quarterly intervals (or as necessary within these intervals) on monitoring equipment by an external contractor and certificates of calibration are kept on site. Scheduled monitoring as per the IPC Licence is controlled as per procedure ProcE06.FM (IPC Scheduled Compliance Monitoring). The monitoring frequencies are logged on the companies computerised maintenance management system and a report is produced detailing the type of monitoring that is required when the monitoring period is reached.

The collection and disposal of waste from the various Hangars and Shops is is monitored and controlled by the Environment Officer and the Operations Support

Manager. Non-hazardous waste is controlled via the Operations Support Manager and hazardous waste via the Environment Officer.

Non-hazardous waste is controlled by the following procedures which reflect Licence requirements:

ProcE06.GM (Wheel & Tyre Control)

ProcE02.Mats (Recycling of Waste Cardboard Cartons).

Ireland Effective Date Jan 2005

This document describes the e:jsential ft?atures of the Safety Management System of SR Technics Ireland Limited and is issued under the a~~thority of the Accountable Manager & CEO.

The Safety Management Systel-n (SMS) is tasked with identibing any adverse trends in relation to safety related events or potential events ;and with addressing identified deficiencies in the interests of safety. The system will also promulgate relevant information in relation to events and related corrective actions. The priority of the SUS is to address matters affecting, or with the potential to affect, airworthiness safety. However, overlaps with others aspects of safety that impact the wider aircraft maintenance activity and assoziated personnel safety are inevitable and will also be encompassed as appropriate by the systom.

The VP Engineering & Quality has been tasked with management of the Safety Management System. Regular reviews of the systern and recommended actions are conducted with the Accountable Manager.

This SMS has been develop~?d in order to meet the requirements of Irish Aviation Authority Aeronautical Notice NR A.67 and Part 14 5 and will be developed and added to based on experience and best industry practice.

I 1.2 SAFETY AND QUALITY P OLICY

The Cornpany Safety and Quality Policy Statement and Corporate Commitment of the Accountable Manager are contained in Sections 1-1 ar~d 1-2 of this Exposition.

11.3 A,GHIEVING A POSITIVE SAFETY CULTURE

An orgarisation with a positive safeti culture is one which has managed to successfully institutionalise safety as a funda.nental value of the organisation, with personnel are every level of the organisation sharing a common ~:ommitmc?nt to safety. The conduct of an organisation's management and staff towards safety, safe..y practices and safety oversight will determine how business is conducted from a safety standpoint.

The ideal culture is one that supportive of staff and systems of work, recognises that errors will be made and that is not apportionrnent of blame that will resolve problems. Therefore, the supportive culture will encourage open reporting, seek to learn from its failures and be just in dealing with those involved. Punitive action must not follovl automatically from the open acknowledgement of human error. Hc~wever, it must be made clear that indemnity will not be guaranteed where there has been gross negligence. The front line defence is that staff must not accept unsafe behaviour from their colleagues.

It is only I,y the efforts of management and staff working together that a positive safety culture can be achieved and retained.

11.4 MANAGEMENT OF: THE SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

The VP Eingineering & Quality has day to day responsibility for the Safety Management System and reports to the Accountable Manager & CEO (IRL) in this regard. His responsibilities with respect to this system are:

To collect data on internal safety related events and potential events (Note: existing data sources such as Ouality Assurance inve:jtigations, reports or audits will be utilised where possible and will not be duplicated) To assess feedback from the Company confidential reporting system To identify adverse trends or deficiencies with the potential to impact on safety To make recommendations to the Accountable Manager and Senior Management with respect to remedial action required To monitor the implementation c ~ f corrective actions taken to address identified deficiencies To monitor and implement best industry p,ractice with respect to Safety Management Systems

11.5 SAFETY ACCOUN'TABILiT'Y

Every staff member is accounl.able for hislher own actions within the scope of their training and knowledge as it affects the quality and safety of the products and services of the company. More detailed accountabilities of depi3rtmental managers and other staff are contained within the relevant company manuals.

In exercising individual accourtability, staff are required to work in accordance with the relevant company manuals and procedures, aircraft and equipment manufacturers manuals and other approved data sources.

In addition, all staff have the re!;ponsibility to highlight any safety or airworthiness events or concerns that come to their attention via departmental management, the Quality Assurance Department or via the company Confidential Reporting Process as appropriate.

I 1.6 FIECORDING AND MONIT(3RING OF COMPANY SAFETY DATA

The Quality Assurance Department coll~!cts data with respect to safety events and documents this information within a monthly Quality Report. The data includes a listing of all occurrences reported to or identified by Quality Assurance and a categorisation of each event in terms of severity from an airworthiness safety perspectiv~?. A hist3rical comparison (trend analysis) with the previous year is also included. This report is rehiewed at each monthly Airworthiness and Quality Assurance Meeting.

Ireland Effective Date Jan 2005

I 1.7 CONFIDENTIAL Rlf PORTING

As an alternative to open reporting to departmental management or Quality Assurance of safety concerns or incidents, staff ma!/ make reports on a confidential basis if desired. These reports may be made using the Quality Discrepancy Report I Incident Report Form (TD2000). These forms are readily available outside the C,A Office. Completed forms may be sent to the Quality Assurance Manager (MDl32) or the Technical Director I SMS Manager (MD240).

As an aliernative to completing the TD2000 form, staff may use the confidential reporting phone line (extension 6321 or from an outside line 8126321 or if using an Aer Lingus extension dial 66321) by leaving a voice mail. Messages on this line are accessible only by the SMS Manager or the Quality Assuranc.e Manager and will no!: be divulged.

When reporting using either of the above methods, staff are encouraged to avoid anonymous reporting (e.g. where no contact details are provided) as this presents significant difficulties should follow-up information be required to investigate concerns or incidents.

Where a staff member makes a confidctntial report in relation to an error or lapse that they were involved in, confidentiality of reporting is assured provided the event or occurrence concerned relates to an unpremeditated or inadvertent lapss by the employee concerned. In addition, no disciplinary or punitive action will be taken by the corrpany where a constructive attitude is demonstrated by the employet? in reporting such an event.

I 1.8 SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM REVIEWS

The functioning of the Safety Manage~nent System, including consideration of significant Gsues identified and their resolution status, will be reviewed quarterly with the Accountable Manager. Attendees at this meeting will irlclude rel~?vant Form 4 Managers and the Quality Assurance Manager in addition to the Accountable Manager and the SMS Manager. These meetings are minuted.

11.9 INTERNAL SAFETY EVEhlT INVESTIGATIONS

The primary responsibility for internal airworthiness safety event investigations rests with the Quality Assuranc;e Department which carries out these investigations with the assistance of the management of the relevant departments. The coiduct of these investigations is described in the Quality Assurance Manual and use MEDA prirciples to the extent required by significance of the event concerned.

The SM!; Manager may in certain circumstances elect to conduct additional enquiries in order to validate or supplement the conc:lusions fr3m the QA investigation.

EXPOSITION Ireland Effective Date Jan 2005

1 1 .I 0 FZEPORTING AND DlSSERnlNATlON

An essential element of a Sti'ety Management System is the dissemination of required actions, lessons Isarned or procedural c:hanges zrising from evaluations conducted as part of the SMS. The processes used to communicat~! information to affected staff includes but are not limited to:

Staff briefings Human Factors and initial and recurrent t'aining Airworthiness and Quality Meeti igs Technical or Quality Notices Continuation Training Company Procedures Technics TV Notice Boards

I I .I I INTERACTION WITH EXISTING PROCEDURES

The Saf~,ty Management System does not replace or duplicate any existing systems or processes associated with occurrence reporting or investigation. The existing processes continue to be the primary methodology for deal in!^ with maintenance events or errors as required by the organisational approval:; granted by various regulatory zuthorities.

1 1 . I2 HUMAN FACTOR8 AFFEClTING MAINTENANCE

In implementing this Safety Management System, and during the conduct of investigations into safety related events, cognisance will be taken (by use of MEDA and similar investigation tools) of the potential for human errors taking place. In most events, a series of contributory factors (human factors and other factors) together influence the outcome that leads to an error or safety event.

The majority of maintenance errors occ:ur due to an unpremeditated or inadvertent lapse by the employee! concerned. By thorough investigation using best human factors practice, the full range of factors contributing to an event will be isolated for consideration by the Safety Management System when identifying adverse trends requiring remedial action by the company.

Notwithslanding the fact that the majorit!/ of errors are inadvertent, it may be appropriate during the investigation of serious events to susperid company approvals of personnel involved with the event pending the completion of the investigatisn. This procedure is documented in the Quality Assurance procedures manual. When this action is taken it has the objective of protecting the organisation and the individual and is not to be in:erpreted as disciplinary action.

Ireland Effective Date Jan 2005

I I . I3 NEGLIGENT OR Dlf LIBERATE BEHAVIOUR

Negligent behaviour or actions designed to cause deliberate harm or damage are thankfully rare in the aviation sector. Since the majority of maintenance errors or events are inadvertent and staff, typically, participate fully in the investigation process in the interest of airworthiness safety, disciplinary actions are not appropriate or warranted.

However, there are certain occ;~sions where implementation of company disciplinary procedures are required on an exceptional basi:.. Examp es of where this may be appropriate are as follows:

1. The persons actions we-e intended to cause harm or damage 2. The person concerned does not have a constructive attitude towards complying with safe

operating procedures 3. The person concerned knowingly violated procedures that were readily available, workable,

ir~telligible and correct 4. The person concerned has been ~nvolved previously in similar events or lapses 5. The person concerned has attempted to hide their lapse or part in a mishap 6. The persons actions show a substantial disregard for safety

In 6. above "substantial disregard" is defined as follows:

In the case of certifying staff, the act or .'ailure to act was a substantial deviation from the degree of care, judgement and responsibility reasor~ably expected of such a person In the case of a person holding no maintenance certification responsibility, the act or failure to act was a substa~?tial deviation from the degree of care and diligence expected of a reasonable person in those circ:umstances

The degree of culpability would vary depending on any mitigating circumstances that are identified as a result c f an investigation conc ucted using MEDA principles. Consequently, any action taken by the organisation would also be on i 3 sliding scale varying, from corrective measures such as re-training, through to dismissal of the individual in extreme cases.

It is not intended to be a static process but instead one that takes accol~nt of industry trends and best practice with the objective of supporting management and staff to improve the safety standards applied to the services being provided.
