Transportation Safety Board of CanadaInstitutional Functions, Programs and Activities

The TSB has four key program activities, which are the safety investigations in the following four transportation systems: Air, Marine, Rail and Pipeline.

Within each program, personnel conduct independent safety investigations into transportation occurrences. They identify causes and contributing factors, assess risks to the system, formulate recommendations to improve safety, publish investigation reports, communicate safety information to stakeholders, undertake outreach activities with key change agents, as well as assess and follow up on responses to recommendations. These activities are carried out by highly qualified investigators who are experts in the transportation operational sectors. They also work closely with personnel who are responsible for executing specialized work in the following fields: engineering and technical, macro analysis, human performance and publications and linguistics.

The Internal Services program activity supports TSB's strategic outcome. It consists of the groups of activities and resources that are administered to support the needs of programs and other corporate obligations of the TSB. These groups are: management and oversight services; communications services; legal services; human resources services; financial and administrative services (including facilities, materiel and acquisition services); information management services; and information technology services.
