 Aviation Safety
The Air Navigation Commission defines aviation safety as the state of freedom from unacceptable risk of injury to persons or damage to aircraft and property.
Key to aviation safety is proper equipment. Cougar Helicopters Inc. strives to provide its staff with the very best in personal protective equipment (PPE) by:
- exceeding industry standards (Transport Canada/FAA);
- exceeding industry standards (OHSA /Canada Labour Code);
- communicating and sharing helicopter industry best practices;
- researching new and innovative safety equipment;
- assisting manufactures with trials and competency standards, such as the fall restraint/protection initiative with Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation; and
- attending safety workshops, seminars and conventions.
Cougar maintains a strict auditing, monitoring and management review system to proactively manage safety on a daily basis. We also have an online reporting system that enables us to track trends in order to mitigate any hazards that may normally go undetected.
As a good corporate citizen, Cougar deems it important to work with others in the industry promoting aviation safety worldwide.
