The aviation supplier FACC has opened a new FACC Academy a year ago. FACC Safety Center The new training and testing facility has been put into operation. Its aim is to sustainably embed safety awareness among the entire workforce through initial and ongoing training. The initiative builds on the high safety standards of the aviation industry, considered the safest mode of transportation worldwide, and aims to further optimize its already stringent standards and procedures.
In the new center, employees will be trained in security issues using specific case studies and interactive training content. The focus is on the so-called "Human Factor" and the individual responsibility of each person for safe processes. A key component of the training concept is the emphasis on an open communication culture as well as a "Just Culture" (fair error culture), since humans control all processes and are therefore the decisive factor for safety in aviation.
CEO Robert Machtlinger He emphasized that with its new Safety Center, FACC is among the world's leading suppliers to the international aerospace industry. The facility marks a shift in focus: while the conformity of products and processes has long been paramount in manufacturing and maintenance facilities, a systematic approach is now being taken. Security management This supplements the existing requirements. Development and production organizations like FACC thus assume expanded responsibility by systematically self-assessing safety-relevant factors such as teamwork and human error, and going beyond simply fulfilling existing approval criteria.
