Cougar Helicopters Inc. is a firm believer that by identifying threats or hazards before they occur, the possibility of harm to individuals is greatly reduced. Out of that belief, we have created an effective corporate safety culture, put in place systematic risk management, and given clear set responsibilities and accountabilities at all levels. Cougar takes pride in going above and beyond for our staff and our passengers.


According to Rick Banks, Director of Safety, who oversees all aspects of safety within Cougar, "We have one goal - eliminate hazards that can cause an accident or incident. It has nothing to do with beating the statistics of the industry; it's all about care and concern for those we employ and transport." Cougar is constantly finding new ways to promote safety in the workplace and the industry.

Cougar's safety management system (SMS) is comprised of the following:
  • Aviation Safety
  • Health Safety and Environment Management
