Air Malta has renewed its IATA operational safety audit (IOSA) registration following a comprehensive audit carried out by a foreign IATA-approved audit organisation.
IOSA is an internationally recognised evaluation system designed to assess the operational management and control systems of an airline.
The audit covers all the airline’s operational departments namely: organisation and management system, flight operations, operational control and flight dispatch, aircraft engineering and maintenance, cabin operations, ground handling operations, cargo operations and security management.
Each department is audited for the required documented policy and procedures, as well as the correct implementation.
IOSA is consequently the benchmark for global safety management in airlines. All IATA members are registered and must remain registered in order to maintain IATA membership.
