Safety - Latvia
PRB monitoring
▪ LGS achieved its RP3 EoSM targets in four out of five management objectives. Improvements are still needed in the safety risk management objective, but the achieved levels are consistent with what was planned in the draft 2019 performance plan.
▪ The main measures the NSA plan to improve performance rely on further implementation of the Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/373.
▪ The PRB notes that compared with the maturity level reach during RP2, LGS continued to improve the maturity of its safety management during the first year of RP3. For the safety risk management objective, LGS needs to improve in two EoSM questions to achieve the target, which should be feasible through an increased compliance with the regulation.
▪ Latvia recorded stable performance with respect to safety occurrences with marginally higher rates of SMIs in 2020 with respect to 2019 and no occurrences of RIs in 2020.
▪ LGS should improve its SMS by implementing automated safety data recording systems.
