The article states that Africa and Middle East have safety cultures that are “not as rigorous” as, presumably, those in Europe and the United States. Is this true or are the authors once again buying into the sentiment that exists that people think that we in Africa and the Middle East are just not quite good enough?
According to the IATA, sub-Saharan Africa still has an accident rate 44 percent higher than the global average, seems they may have a point……..
Is the problem with the “standards” or with training and application of the standards?
Is it an attitude, selection or leadership problem?
It is my privilege to lead a team of passionate and highly competent, professional, aviation security compliance and training specialists who provide advice, training and practical assistance to the aviation industry with a focus on playing a key role in keeping aviation safe and secure for all.
As a team this is what we are passionate about. This is how we make a difference to the world we live and work in.
Training and education is at the heart of security and safety and this is my passion. We invest time and resources in the custom design of eLearning experiences to enhance the training and growth of all in the aviation security and safety fields.
I explore methods, procedures and systems to combine people with technology to achieve the best personal growth for people and enhanced aviation security by engaging people in playing an active, daily role in aviation security.
