51 The airside safety training program focuses on individuals who have duties that require access to airside areas to complete initial and recurrent airside safety training. This includes operators of ground support equipment (GSE) such as tugs, deicing vehicles, loaders, and catering vehicles, to name a few. The training outline comprises operational and management issues that reflect a safety manage- ment document. • Safety philosophy; • Safety regulations; • Hazards; • Human factors; • Airside markings and signage; • Emergency situations; • FOD prevention; • Personal protection; • Accidents, incidents, near misses; • Risk assessment; and • Airside safety supervision. Airside driver training for ground handling personnel typically addresses: • Role and responsibilities of vehicle operators; • Vehicle equipment standards; • Hazards of airside driving; • Reduced visibility procedures; • Accident and incident reporting procedures; • Rules and procedures for driving on ramps (aprons), stands, and airside roads; and • Rules and procedures for driving in aircraft maneuvering areas. The topic of risk management is presented to help ensure that risk management processes are learned and implemented. In general, risk management typically includes the basic elements of: • Safety hazard identification; • Security threat identification; • Risk assessment; • Risk control; and • Risk monitoring.
