Safety - Finland
PRB monitoring
▪ ANS Finland achieved the RP3 EoSM targets in four management objectives and must improve in only one area: safety risk management. According to its 2019 draft performance plan, ANS Finland should have achieved the RP3 targets in 2020.
▪ The reason for not achieving the target on safety risk management is under assessment by the Finnish Transport and Communications Agency. No circumstances have been identified as of yet that should prevent ANS Finland from reaching the target.
▪ Compared to the maturity achieved at the end of RP2, the EoSM performance has remained stable as ANS was only deficient in safety risk management in 2019. ANS Finland has two out of three EoSM questions to improve on safety risk management, which should be feasible during RP3.
▪ Finland recorded good performances with respect to safety occurrences. Lower rates of both SMIs and RIs were achieved in 2020 compared with 2019, although SMI performance was higher than the Union-wide average.
▪ ANS Finland should improve its SMS by implementing automated safety data recording systems.
