RISK MANAGEMENT IN THE AVIATION GROUND LING (EGS COMPANY CASE STUDY)

ABSTRACT
Management of preceived risks in the business is considered one of the international
standards to evaluate the performance of the organization. So, the aviation industry
tended to this area from the eighties of the last century through the development of
many standards to ensure the effective application of this process. The basis from
the beginning was during manufacturing of the aircraft itself to ensure the presence
of replicate systems and alternative systems to ensure the secured operating of
aircrafts and with the normal development it became inevitable applying of such
process system in all fields of aviation to include the ground handling provided to
aircraft to ensure safety as well as achieving the appropriate service time (Ground
Time Turn Around).
In 2008, Egypt air Ground Sevices began in applying the integrated system of risk
management in a scientific way in cooperation with the International Air Transport
Association (IATA), this is for the company to be one of the first international
companies that apply this system successfully which reflected on the company's
reputation through the lower rates of delays and also reducing the value of insurance
premiums as a result of improving the ground handling of aircraft after the application
of the program.
