Original Title:
Ο ανθρώπινος παράγοντας στην διαχείριση επιχειρησιακού ρίσκου στην αεροπλοΐα.
Translated title:
Human factor in operational risk management in aviation.
Summary:
From the beginning of his creation, man influenced with his actions and decisions the
natural and smooth flow of processes created in the environment that interacted. It was with the
abilities and feelings of potential danger and the cause of creating precarious situations. His
relationship with other people and interdependence with them combined with the unimpeded
imposition of his views and beliefs, resulted in his influence in dangerous situations with
deliberate or unintended consequences. With the development of technology and the creation
of aviation could not be left uninvolved. The main manager of the innovative aviation sector is
also considered to be the main factor in the creation of air accidents. His mistakes and
misguided decision-making have an impact on operational risk management in both the air
force and civilian aviation. The manner and timing of decisions determines the consequences of
air accidents and the number of victims.
Over time, human factor analysis models have been developed aimed at finding and
understanding human error. In addition, they aim to take measures and create a database of
unsafe situations so that to reduce the number of accidents through the training of pilots. The
emergence of safety organizations in aviation, has create the need to develop a safety culture
with the aim of developing rules and limits to minimize human error and feedback on the
operational risk management system with comprehensive and confirmed accident reports.
Through the study of accidents, we found that the human factor is involved to about 80% of the
aviation accidents. There is an urgent need to create a collective and organic safety culture in
order to get rid of empirical habits and past mentalities that cannot eliminate air accident rates.
Unfortunately, absence of accidents considered to be not possible because man will always
hold positions which, by his actions or decisions, will determine the safety of flights.
