Safety and passenger confidence in the air transport system are key objectives in Finnish aviation safety policy.

The aviation safety programme, plan for aviation safety and safety performance indicators and targets are advanced safety management mechanisms at the national level. They help us respond to the challenges of the diverse aviation system and strengthen the resilience of Finland’s aviation system. Well-functioning safety management structures maintain our high level of safety and ensure safety operations also in rapidly or slowly changing situations.
Finnish Aviation safety objectives and safety performance targets and indicators (SPT, SPI)
What are SPTs and SPIs?
FASP Annex 2: Finnish aviation safety objectives and safety performance targets and indicators (SPT, SPI) defines the acceptable level of safety performance we are working to achieve in Finnish aviation. The acceptable level is determined by setting strategic safety objectives, and the necessary safety performance indicators and targets.
Updated version 6.0 was published 1st January 2024, and is in force as from 1 February 2024. The English version will be published later and will be available in this web page. The previous version 5.1. with English translation can be found via this link (External link)
Why SPTs and SPIs?
Strategic safety objectives define safety policy visions and objectives in more concrete and practical form for managing safety. They and their related SPTs and SPIs are required for monitoring the achievement of the targeted level in practice. Ultimately, they are one step in translating safety policy into everyday actions.Why SPTs and SPIs?
