Voluntary Reporting Programs An oversight authority is a critical component of a voluntary reporting program These programs use employee input to identify: significant safety concerns and issues, operational deficiencies, non-compliance with regulations, deviations from policies and procedures, and unusual safety events
Acceptable Reports Must be inadvertent Must not involve gross negligence (that is, the individual did not intentionally introduce risk) Must not appear to involve criminal activity Must not appear to involve substance abuse, controlled substances, or alcohol Must not appear to involve intentional falsification

Aviation Safety Information Analysis and Sharing (ASIAS) ASIAS Overview
What is ASIAS. A collaborative Government and Industry initiative on data sharing & analysis to proactively discover safety concerns before accidents or incidents occur, leading to timely mitigation and prevention.
ASIAS moves from REACTIVE Analysis to PROACTIVE Analysis From What went wrong? To What COULD go wrong? 10 Photo Credits: National Transportation Safety Board
