Along with technical progress and fast paced development in China railway, new requirements of inspecting and managing railway safety in a high-level and systematic way is challenging our traditional safety viewpoints. This paper presents an investigation of current safety management mechanism and status in China railway. Referring to the concept of safety management system (SMS), this paper proposes an applicable framework for conducting risk based evaluation principle and safety managing procedures to China railway construction in coalition with existing fundamental regulations. Also key issues that can impact the intrinsic qualities of performing such framework via safety assurance activities with practical safety principle are given.

As air traffic is continously growing and the number of potential hazards for safety is also rising, improvement of management systems is required to ensure an adequate level of safety. The management of change constitutes an important part of the safety management system (SMS) defined in Annex 19 to the Convention on International Civil Aviation. It is one of twelve elements of SMS found in the ‘Safety assurance’ component. The management of change put in place in an aviation organisation demonstrates the considerable development of an SMS. This process is essential for managing safety in an efficient way. The article reports on the state of implementation of the management of change in selected civil aviation organisations and also points out the difficulties related with carrying it out in everyday life. The paper focuses on managing changes of certified aerodromes and air navigation service providers. In the conclusions, tools are proposed that enable the reader to improve the process.

In the view of safety management and in accordance with the safety management system of “human – machine – environment - control”, the hidden risks linked to the safety management of LNG ship are analyzed in different aspects such as ship factors, environment factors, human factors and management factors respectively. Then, based on the safety principle of “prevention first”, this paper puts forward the corresponding measures, hoping to fundamentally prevent or eliminate the occurrence of non-safety factors. Finally, in reference to the successful safety management modes of other companies and the special properties of LNG ships, an effective safety management system is proposed and considered in this paper.

AbstractIn accordance with the new requirements of rail law, from June 2020, a railway undertaking or rail infrastructure manager applying for a single safety certificate/ authorization should demonstrate compliance with the relevant requirements of the Safety Management System (SMS) set out in the Commission delegated regulation (UE) 2018/762. To this end, he should provide proof to the national safety authority or, where applicable, to the European Union Agency for Railway Safety, of the establishment of a safety management system in accordance with Art. 9 of Directive (EU) 2016/798. According to Regulation, the organization should describe the scope of the safety management system, indicating which parts of the business are covered by it, considering legal requirements. The publication attempts to identify necessary changes and additions to hitherto functioning SMS.

Software Program

In this paper, a whole development process of a railway safety assessment program in South Korea is introduced. A railway safety assessment program is a web-based software program to examine safety documents automatically and to support railway safety assessor by providing checklists. The railway safety documents assessed in this program are safety management system (SMS) documents and engineering safety management (ESM) documents. The railway safety documents are examined automatically by software engines and results of the examination are provided to assessors. The program also provides the assessors with document checklists. The railway safety assessment program will become a beneficial web-based program for examining and investigating railway safety documents in South Korea.
