The study is part of CANSO’s safety program and benchmarks individual ANSP’s performance against a range of metrics such as loss of separation (IFR), runway incursion statistics and Safety Management System (SMS) maturity.
Airservices CEO Margaret Staib said Airservices performed consistently well in relation to loss of separation metrics, coming in with one of the lowest loss of separation rates globally for IFR flights per million flight hours and per 100,000 movements.
“However, while we are among the world’s best, we should not be complacent about safety and we continue to focus our efforts on further enhancing our safety performance,” Staib said.
