The document discusses safety management activities within the European Air Traffic Management Programme (EATMP). It outlines that EATMP focuses on developing guidance materials, providing support and training to help implement safety management systems. This includes initiatives to help states monitor safety and improve reporting of incidents, as well as developing methodologies to assess the safety of new ATM systems throughout their lifecycle. The overall goal is to enhance safety by promoting a culture of safety management across European air traffic management.

10. EUROCONTROL SAFETY MEASUREMENT & IMPROVEMENT PROGRAMME (SRC/Safety Group) “ The lack of consistency and availability of safety data at the European level has prevented meaningful conclusions being drawn on the performance of ATM safety across the ECAC area.” “ There is an urgent need to introduce a harmonised approach to national ATM safety performance reporting, encompassing a harmonised categorisation of safety occurrences, a common approach to confidentiality issues, and a means of identifying causal factors of ATM accidents and incidents”
