Aircraft Turnaround Safety & Management: Airside Risk Control Explained

Описание: Aircraft turnaround is one of the highest-risk phases of aviation operations. Tight schedules, multiple contractors, and simultaneous activities such as refuelling, cleaning, catering, and baggage handling create a complex and hazardous working environment for ground staff.
In this video, we break down aircraft turnaround safety, the key risks involved, and the management controls required to prevent serious accidents and fatalities during airside operations.
Based on HSE guidance, aviation best practice, and industry case studies, this video explains how effective coordination, risk assessment, and strict safety protocols protect people working around live aircraft.
In this video, you’ll learn:
Why aircraft turnaround is considered a high-risk operation
Common hazards during turnaround, including:
Running engines and APUs
Vehicle movements and equipment congestion
Manual handling and time pressure
The importance of airside risk assessments
Safe systems of work for refuelling, loading, cleaning, and catering
Why is coordination between airlines, ground handlers, and airport operators critical
HSE expectations for managing airside activities safely
Lessons learned from industry accidents and case studies
How effective turnaround management reduces injuries, delays, and damage
What aircraft turnaround safety means for NEBOSH learners and aviation professionals
Poorly managed turnaround operations can result in serious injury, aircraft damage, and significant operational disruption. Strong safety leadership and disciplined procedures are essential to safeguarding people and maintaining safe skies.
This video is ideal for NEBOSH learners, airside supervisors, ground handling teams, airport operators, aviation safety professionals, and anyone responsible for aircraft turnaround operations.
