“No one seems to care; through CHIRP I realised more people do care.”
β CHIRP Ambassador
Our team and set of specialist consultants work alongside six advisory boards comprising expert volunteers in aviation, maritime, and human factors. We adopt a unique approach that combines independence, confidentiality, impartiality, and human factor safety to process the reports we receive. Once this is completed, we follow up to produce a human factor analysis relevant to the different sectors within aviation and maritime. We create additional impact through communicating messages drawn from this analysis to the wider industry to inform policy and help encourage better working practices, working with other experts and organisations to achieve this.
Reports with educational themes and identified value for wider dissemination are published in the respective Maritime, Air Transport, General Aviation, Cabin Crew, Drone/UAS and Ground Handling & Security FEEDBACK newsletters. In addition to email and hard-copy distribution, all FEEDBACK newsletters are available on the CHIRP website and can be accessed using the CHIRP App as well.
Through our work we aim to ensure,
- Better leadership, awareness, and attitude towards safety issues.
- Improved safety culture by changing behaviours, so that practices, processes, and procedures are as safe as they can be.
- Adoption of safety outcomes identified in CHIRP reports by regulators, managers, and individuals.
“Whenever it has been possible, we have engaged with regulators, managers, and individuals to encourage the adoption of safety outcomes.”
