Submitting Safety Reports
Air Maestro® contains a safety report register, which allows your organisation to manage information relating to safety events. When a hazard or occurrence eventuates, you can create a report on the system, recording all the relevant details. The system uses a wizard to prompt you for the required information depending on the report type and contributing factors.
When you lodge the report, all relevant personnel are advised of the report by email, an alert on the system or SMS. Relevant personnel can then participate in an investigation forum and discuss the issues raised from the event until a resolution is reached. Historical data is stored about each report for audit and reporting purposes. The safety report types are customisable for each organisation and vary according to you role and access levels. The default report types include:
Report | Description |
---|---|
Flight | Report a hazard or occurrence involving flight operations |
Ground | Report a hazard or occurrence involving ground operations |
Quality | Report a suggestion or complaint |
Clinical | Report a hazard or occurrence involving clinical operations |
Discretion | Report a deviation from your prescribed work practice controls. This report can only be submitted from the Timesheets screen, when you exceed a work practice control. |
