What is Safety and Quality?
By Secretary Europe
Published: Feb 8, 2006

This has become all the more important as the number of commercial, corporate and even private aircraft, and the intensive use made thereof, have witnessed a dramatic increase to cope with demand.

The creation of the European Aviation Safety Agency contributes to establish and maintain a high and uniform level of civil aviation safety in Europe. This system will also ensure a single European market for industry and air operators without competitive disruption.

The Agency additionally contributes to the Community objective of reducing the environmental impact of aviation through the definition and application of technical requirements that are in line with international standards.

What is Safety and Quality?
Safety means absence from risk or danger, while Quality can be formulated as fitness for a purpose. In our business Quality and Safety overlap – the more we strive to be fit for our purpose the higher the level of Safety.Safety - It can be difficult to get a grasp on the absence of something.

Safety however is in the individual's mind – if he/she is convinced that something is not safe, he/she will not do it. In this, attitude plays an important role.
