Title:
Learning From Our Mistakes
Topic:
Compliance Philosophy and a 'Just Culture'
Speaker(s):
FPM's Bill VanArtsdalen and John Sibole
Brief Description:
At this forum we will have FAASTeam Program Managers (FPMs) speak about the FAA Compliance Philosophy and how it is being applied. In 2015, the FAA in an effort to embrace a “just culture” implemented a new Compliance Philosophy. A “just culture” is one that has both an expectation of, and an appreciation for, self-disclosure of errors. A “just culture” allows for due consideration of honest mistakes, especially in a complex system like the NAS. But even unintentional errors can have a serious adverse impact on safety, and so we must ensure that the underlying safety concern is fixed in all cases.

Additional Event Information & Acknowledgement of Industry Sponsor(s):
The Federal Aviation Administration is revamping its Compliance Philosophy in an effort to identify systemic risk to all in the airspace system by gathering and sharing information from the pilots themselves. Education and remedial training for situations involving pilot error resulting from lack of understanding, flawed procedures, diminished skill or simple mistakes is the FAA’s preferred choice of remediation leaving certificate action reserved for intentional acts of non-compliance.
The FAA is turning its focus from enforcement to an educational approach centered around remedial training and addressing key safety issues. The FAA will now offer remedial training as an option to certificate action. The FAA’s new compliance philosophy is designed to better understand what causes pilot error and to help facilitate open and honest communication to bring about positive and lasting change. In this way, the FAA can focus on fostering a culture of safety, while also improving pilot skill
