... Section V Linking Risk Assessment and Risk Management
From page 139...
... In large, complex, md dynamic environments like aviation, nuclear power, medicme, and other industries where sometimes mmor errors or flaws m systems c m lead to serious incidents or accidents, the challenge of mamtammg safety is sigmiflcant. Therefore, effective risk mmagement, which includes risk assessment and risk mitigation, is crucial to ensuring safety.

... . Since that time, ASRS has accepted almost 580,000 reports from pilots, air traffic controllers, flight attend mts, mainten mce techmici ms, md others descnbmg aviation safety events that they experienced or witnessed (Figure 1)

... ASRS meets annually with these countries to coordinate and compare information concernung worldwide aviation safety through the international Confidential Aviation Safety Systems (ICASS) , a group formed in 1988 that has smce been recognized by the International Civil Aviation Org mization (ICAO)

... But a gap analysis and study of these reports revealed that these reports were extremely sensitive and would require different methods of analysis and evaluation. In addition, although ASRS hears from pilots, arr traffic controllers, flight attendants and mechanics, other groups of personnel involved directly with the security processes have not been exposed to or educated about the confidential reporting model of ASRS.

From page 144...
... In reading and amalyzing these reports, specialists in aviation transform the report data into information that can be used to assess risk in the system. Because of the conditions of reporting and limited hmnunity established between NASA and the FAA, ASRS is a robust source of information for both threat and vulnerability identification, its main contribution to risk assessment and thus, to risk management.
From page 145...
... Responses to the threats and vulnerabilities identified by ASRS and risk management are developed through mechanisms outside of ASRS, although ASRS can provide a neutral forum for continuing discussions to reduce threats and vulnerabilities. SUMhL\RY ASRS is a proven, effective system for confidential reporting and an exemplary system for application in other industries interested in safety improvements.
