Abstract

The aviation industry places a premium on safety. Safety risk management is used in the workplace to assess the risk associated with identified hazards and to improve or develop effective and appropriate mitigations to prevent accidents and incidents. The study's objective was to evaluate the level of implementation of a safety risk management system in Aviation Partnership Philippines Aplus as well as its compliance with the regulatory body. This study was a combination of qualitative and quantitative research, with a questionnaire and a Key Informant Interview (KII) used to gather information that answered the statement of the problem. This study aimed to develop and improve the safety risk management system in aviation partnerships, with the goal of lowering risk severity within the company. The proposed improvement plan in this study may be useful in any maintenance company that is having issues with their safety risk management system. The aviation mechanics in Aviation Partnership Philippines participated in this study, with a total of 40 participants divided equally between 20 mechanics in component shop and 20 mechanics in line maintenance, and a four-point Likert scale was used. This four-point scale was used in this study to measure the level of implementation of Safety Risk Management System in terms of; Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment and Mitigation Process and Risk Probability. The study's findings revealed that a safety risk management system is being implemented. Using the Key Informant Interview, it served to confirm if hazard identification and risk assessment is performed in the workplace. On the other hand, this KII lend to support a recommendation for the enhancement of the existing SRM system to be fully implemented to improve plans into a continuous cycle to focus on the hazard identification to mandatory reporting and additional safety officer to ensure the implementation of remedial action necessary to maintain agreed safety performance in assessing and mitigating the risk.
