Part 3: Safety Management System
3.1 Safety Policy and National Perspective
Droneswork adopts best industry practice to ensure that all its flight operations using small
unmanned aircraft systems is carried out as safely as possible.
Droneswork addresses operations in the UK and covers regulations, procedures and specific details
concerning individual countries. Where specific National Aviation Authority requirements are
addressed, these are preceded by the following prefix to lines and paragraphs as appropriate:
{UK} CAA-UK – United Kingdom - Civil Aviation Authority
Safety is the primary responsibility of all personnel involved in droneswork operations.
By the use of proactive and systematic management droneswork is committed to:
v Setting and achieving the highest possible operational and RPAS maintenance
standards;
v Complying with all applicable legislation;
v Considering best practices;
v Providing appropriate resources;
v Enforcing safety as one primary responsibility of all managers (and operational
personnel);
v Not blaming someone for reporting something which would not have been otherwise
detected.
Safety is of paramount concern in all decisions that droneswork makes and the management must
ensure that this policy is rigorously applied.
All droneswork personnel must comply with this manual and all relevant statutory regulation.
Management must ensure that droneswork personnel, equipment, operations and documentary
approvals are kept up to date with any current regulations and standards.
Safety is everybody’s responsibility and it is the duty of all employees to bring to the attention of
their colleagues any potentially unsafe practices or situations.
We are committed to a “Just Safety Culture”, in that we have an open, flexible and fair reporting
culture with the intention of learning from any errors or omissions to the benefit of a continuous
improvement in safety standards.
We are committed to the continuous improvement in the quality of everything that we do. This,
ensures airworthy UAS, safe operations and regulatory compliance, but also satisfies our
customers’ expectations, provides a sound commercial basis for our operations and strengthens the
business.
We intend to maintain a process of continuous improvement in safety performance with the ultimate
aim of minimising the risk of an accident occurring.
droneswork provides all staff with appropriate training to enable them to conduct their duties safely.
