Introduction
Safety in the aviation environment isn’t just about procedures or audits. It starts with people.
With their vigilance, honesty, and involvement.
And above all: their ability to report risks, even the smallest ones.
Safety: A Shared Responsibility.
Too often, safety management is seen as a task “assigned” to one person or department. But in reality, a strong safety culture relies on one fundamental principle: everyone contributes.
- A supervisor notices a risky habit on the tarmac
- A technician spots a missing step in a procedure
- An employee experiences something unusual but isn’t sure it’s “serious enough” to mention
These small moments, if ignored, can pile up until one day… it’s too late.
That’s why every report matters.
The Role of Connected Systems in This Approach.
Promoting a reporting culture is essential — but the tools must support it. A poorly designed safety management system can unintentionally hold that culture back.
A well-designed tool, on the other hand, should:
- Make reporting simple, quick, and accessible to everyone
- Adapt forms to the severity or category of the event
- Allow for clear follow-up without adding workload
- Encourage communication between the departments involved
And most importantly: it must connect with the other tools already in place.
Connecting Safety and Training: A Powerful Multiplier
When a reported event leads to concrete action — for example, a preventive training in Nabu Pro — the employee directly sees the positive impact of their report.
That’s when the magic happens:
- The act of reporting becomes a valued gesture, not a waste of time
- The company demonstrates that it listens and acts
- And the safety culture takes root, report after report
In summary
Building a strong safety culture doesn’t happen overnight.
But it starts with one report.
Then another.
And another.
With the right tools — simple, connected, and people-focused — every report becomes a building block in the wall of prevention.
