This manual provides detailed guidance on the principles and practices of aviation safety management. It is designed to support States in implementing an effective State safety programme (SSP) which is a key objective outlined in the Global Aviation Safety Plan (Doc 10004). This includes ensuring that service providers implement safety management systems (SMS) in accordance with the provisions of Annex 19. It focuses on the intended outcome of each Standard and Recommended Practice (SARP) and highlights the importance of each organization tailoring the implementation of safety management to fit their specific environment.
