Industry Safety Management F F Own choices made within framework of vague legal requirements (5 2) Internal sa ety control 

So far, the circle does not involve the industry s internal control. This is by no means a sign that this box in the matrix is less important. On the contrary, the internal control is a crucial part of safety management in both regimes. 

In relation to state safely management, the internal control provides an important input and basis for state safety eontrol (4) in that reports and the like flowing from the industry s own eontrol activities in practice quantitatively eonstitute the most eentral input - more eentral than supervision and verification carried out directly by state inspectors. This means that the quality of the internal control and its output have to be secured. Therefore, the internal control also constitutes a separate object of state control in order to ensure that it can serve the intended purpose. The internal control is made both a basis and an object for state safety control.
