Safety
The company subscribes to the highest certification standards for the UN, ICRC, WFP, Oil Companies and IOSA in keeping with the variety of services offered. Our motto is “Do it right the first time”. The company actively encourages hazard and incident reporting; trains staff on safety management; documents the findings and mitigation action and strives for continuous improvement. In order to prevent accidents and to reduce their potential for damage or injury, ALS maintains an active integrated safety management system
based on international standards as laid out by ICAO.


  IOSA
The IATA Operational Safety Audit (IOSA) program is an internationally recognized and accepted evaluation system designed to assess the operational management and control systems of an airline. IOSA’s quality audit principles are designed to conduct audits in an international standardized manner.

ALS has completed the first phase of the IOSA audit and will soon be accredited as an IOSA operator.

  FLIGHT OPERATIONS
In ALS, responsibility for making its operations safer lies with each of its employees – from managers to
front-line staff. Each is responsible for implementing safety within the scope of the safety management
system. All staff are accountable to ensure that all reasonable steps are taken to prevent accidents and
incidents.

  SATELLITE TRACKING SYSTEM
ALS makes significant investments in staff training and state of the art systems such as Satellite Tracking. This enables real time operational control of the entire fleet. The impact of satellite tracking in aviation has been significant and has brought a new dimension to operating aircraft.

The position-reporting capability removes the “Search” from “Search and Rescue”. The unit is equipped with an Alert Button, which, when deployed, will immediately send the aircraft’s position and emergency situation to the concerned parties. In addition the system transmits periodic messages containing time, longitude; latitude, speed, altitude and bearing, and these can be customized to report at intervals of 1 minute or more.

Notification of events such as Master On, Engine On, Blocks Off, Takeoff, Landing, Blocks On, Engine Off, Master Off, Low Battery, Hard-Landing and Excess-G - all with to-the-second precision is recorded.
