In some industries, the safety control structure is called the safety management system (SMS). In civil aviation, ICAO (International Civil Aviation Authority) has created standards and recommended practices for safety management systems and individual countries have strongly recommended or required certified air carriers to establish such systems in order to control organizational factors that contribute to accidents.

The models for safety management systems differ somewhat One model is that of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). For some time it has required safety management systems in the management of aviation systems by member companies. Its model incorporates three principles ... 

ICAO publishes several documents to help aviation organizations implement a safety management system.

The comparative health of the institutions that support traffic safety outcomes is of course known to be crucial in determining the relative level of traffic safety performance that is achieved by any country compared with its peers. Institutional health remains a major potential barrier to improved traffic safety performance for many high- and most middle- and low-income countries to varying degrees. Traffic safety has steadfastly stood alone, quite separate from developments in safety management in other transport modes or in industrial safety. A recent review of the effectiveness of safety management systems undertaken by the Australian Transport Safety Bureau comprehensively covered aviation, rail, and marine safety systems with no reference to road transport ...

Regulatory authorities, operators and maintainers need to enforce a proactive approach to safety, whereby the safety management system not only ensures that the intended level of safety remains intact, but also that trends are monitored and used to make improvements before an accident or incident occurs. Trends can be monitored via internal programmes such as FRAC AS/DRACAS (see Appendix A) as well as via data-sharing programmes such as Flight Operations Quality Assurance (FOQA), Aviation Safety Action Partnerships (ASAP) and accident databases.
