The results of the work of the UNECE ITC on the development of the SafeFITS tool were reviewed, the indicators proposed in the framework of this tool for assessing the effectiveness of making management decisions in order to ensure road safety were analyzed and the possibility and relevance of its application in Ukraine were considered. Keywords: road safety, road traffic incident, road traffic fatalities and injuries, road safety performance indicators (RSPI), road safety management system.

The article is an attempt to present the two modern concepts of safety management systems. The first is the sunflower pyramid used especially in Europe, the second is the ISO 39001 standard (Road Safety Management System) of international scope. The idea and possibilities offered by use of both concepts of safety management, as well as an attempt to assess the impact of their actions on decrease in fatalities in selected EU countries, were presented. As a result of the conducted analyses, a downward trend was noted as to the number of certificates issued for compliance with the ISO 39001 standard in the world, which may indicate an appearance of the more adequate management systems, or other tools or concepts to improve the road safety, or inadequate education society and low level of awareness in this area of stakeholders, including politicians, scientists, producers, drivers (professional and reliable), as well as other road users, including unprotected ones.

Abstract. Five aviation service providers participated in a study aiming to identify factors that impact the implementation of a safety management system and the safety performance of the organization. Safety managers were interviewed and their comments analyzed using grounded theory approach. Hindering factors were categorized and integrated into a model.

The development of the audit method has included the identification of possible performance indicators at each level of the sociotechnical pyramid for a range of areas of work in which accidents have been shown to occur most frequently. The measurementof performance indicators is part of a feedback loop which causes safety improvements. Integration of performance indicators into the audit system has been tested at three operating chemical industries in Terengganu and Selangor in Malaysia. A summary of the weaknesses of the similar elements identified in the three audited plants is presented. Analysis on the approach used enables the identification of deficiencies in safety management aspects. Keywords: Accidents, audit, deficiencies, performance indicators, safety management, and sociotechnical pyramid.

Road safety is the crisis condition in developing countries such as Indonesia. Based on 2016 data, the dead tolls of road accidents were 26,000, or 10.9 fatalities per 100,000 inhabitants. The majority of victims was between 15 and 29 years old (IRSMS, 2016). This condition shows the human capital lost caused by many dead prematurely on road. The Long Term National Road Safety Plan (RUNK) declareted in 2011 has the main goal is reducing road fatalities by 50% and 80% in 2020 and 2035 respectively. Indonesia National Police (INP) has the main role to coordinate and realize safer road users in the RUNK. Integrated Road Safety Management System (IRSMS) is the road accident data- based application that was developed by INP and it must be the evidence based for decision policies and development action plan activities. Establishment of Traffic Accident Research Centre (TARC) has the main objective to sinergising Indonesia traffic police with academia and researcher to carry out in depth study as well as to develop programmes that able both structural and cultural to construct safety concern society. INP understands that enforcement program solely cannot solve road safety problem. It recognizes that achievement is not possible without understanding the problems and incorporation with all stakeholders in road safety. Keselamatan di jalan raya adalah sesuatu hal yang kritis di negara berkembang seperti Indonesia. Data kecelakaan pada tahun 2016 menunjukan 26.000 orang, 41.9 orang per 100.000 penduduk meninggal di jalan raya dimana mayoritas korban berusian 15 – 29 (IRSMS, 2016). Kondisi memperlihatkan kehilangan negara atas aset sumber daya yang dimiliki. Rencana Umum Nasional Keselamatan (RUNK) pada tahun 2011bertujuan menurunkan fatalitas di jalan raya. POLRI mempunyai peran utama dalam mengkoordinasi dan menciptakan pengguna jalan yang berkeselamatan. Integrated Road Safety Management System (IRSMS) adalah aplikasi pencatatan data kecelakaan yang dikembangkan oleh POLRI harus dijadikan basis pengambilan keputusan dan aktifitas kampanye keselamatan di jalan raya. Pendirian Traffic Accident Research Centre (TARC) bertujuan menciptakan sinergitas antara KORLANTAS POLRI dan akademisi dalam melakukan in-depth study serta. Penciptaan program yang mampu secara struktur dan kultur menciptakan masyarakat yang berperilaku pengutamaan terhadap keselamat karena melakukan tindakan represif semata-mata tidak dapat menyelesaikan masalah keselamatan jalan.

Purpose Previous research studies have testified that safety culture positively affects safety performance. However, the progression by which safety culture affects safety performance has not yet been examined. Also, how safety culture affects the overall safety performance at different levels of the organization is yet to be explored. In order to address this issue, the purpose of this paper is to study the effect of multilevel safety culture upon safety performance over time. Design/methodology/approach A conceptual causal-loop diagram is constructed using the group model building approach to establish the relationship between safety culture components (e.g. psychological, behavioral and situational) and the factors associated with safety performance (e.g. risk level, safety behavior, unsafe conditions, unsafe acts and incident rate). Considering the dynamic nature and intricacy of the safety management system, the system dynamics approach has been employed to develop the model. Findings The results indicate that the safety culture at the tactical level (middle management) and operational level is much more effective than strategic level (top management) in ameliorating the safety performance of the organization. Research limitations/implications The scope of this study is limited to the effect of multilevel safety culture on safety performance. The focus is on the dynamics of personal, behavioral and situational factors of top management, middle management and workers to reinforce the safety performance of the organization. Future research can be protracted to build other models of safety. Practical implications First and foremost, the findings summarized in this paper can be implemented by organizations to achieve the total safety culture to upgrade safety performance. Originality/value This paper presents the holistic view of multilevel safety culture in an organization’s hierarchy. It shows how multilevel level safety culture in an organization interacts with the safety management system to enhance the safety performance of the organization.
