Safety - Cyprus

PRB monitoring

▪ Cyprus (DCAC Cyprus) improved its performance in safety risk management and safety promotion, reaching the RP3 target in 2023. Only safety policy and objectives require improvement. This management objective has not improved much over RP3.

▪ DCAC Cyprus maintains its safety action plan, which is regularly updated, detailing the measures put in place to achieve the safety targets.

▪ Cyprus recorded a stable performance with respect to the safety occurrences with a slight decrease in rate of separation minima infringements (SMIs) and no occurrences of runway incursions (RIs) in 2023.

▪ DCAC Cyprus do not use automated safety data recording systems.

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

Focus on EoSM

Only “Safety Policy and Objectives” component is still below RP3 EoSM target level with four questions to be improved. Over 2023, “Safety Risk Management” and “Safety Promotion” were improved and reached the target levels.
