Safety - Spain

PRB monitoring

▪ ENAIRE achieved the RP3 EoSM targets and exceeded them in four out of five management areas. Ferronats achieved the RP3 EoSM target in four out of five management objectives with only safety risk management requiring further improvement.

▪ In all five management objectives ENAIRE achieved higher levels of maturity than planned in the draft 2019 performance plan. ENAIRE implemented continuous monitoring processes to maintaining a high safety performance. Measures are defined for further improvements to the maturity levels such as stress management processes and the creation of just culture policies.

▪ Spain recorded better performance with respect to safety occurrences with lower rates of SMIs and RIs in 2020 compared with 2019. However, the rates of occurrences for both were above the Union-wide average rates in 2020.

▪ Spain uses specific automated safety data recording systems for both SMIs and RIs for ACC and TMA sectors and it is one of only a handful of ANSPs to do so.

Effectiveness of Safety Management (EoSM) (KPI#1)

Focus on EoSM

All five EoSM components of ENAIRE meet, or exceed, already the 2024 target level. Four out of five EoSM components of FERRONATS meet already the 2024 target level. Only the component “Safety Risk Management” is below 2024 target level, at level C. Improvements in safety risk management are still expected during RP3 to achieve 2024 targets.
