SAFETY IS AT THE HEART OF EVERYTHING WE DO
We’re proud of our industry-leading safety record and we’re at the forefront of developing and improving safety standards in the helicopter sector. We believe in taking care of our customers, our employees, our aircraft, and the environment.

Our Safety Policy
Our Safety Objectives
THE LATEST TECHNOLOGY, ONBOARD AND ON BASE
Thanks to our drive to always innovate and go beyond, we have a safety infrastructure that is second to none and spans every aspect of our business.
Our impressive safety record is built on advanced training programs, best-in-class maintenance practices and transformative technologies. Our modern fleet is equipped with the latest technology and innovative flight, terrain, aircraft and engine monitoring systems. Flight and performance data is also reviewed and analysed so we can constantly improve our global operations standards and training procedures.
YOUR SAFETY IS OUR HIGHEST PRIORITY
SAFETY CASE SYSTEM
We have developed a single and consistent way of assessing any hazards, no matter where they are in the world, using common risk language – meaning we are able to assess all hazards against a global standard of acceptable operational risk, and if any exceed that level, we can quickly act to bring that level down.
LINE OPERATIONS SAFETY AUDIT
Our programme capturing data about how our crews react to threats and errors which is translated into improvements in operations and training across our global standards.
AIRLINE INFORMATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Our aviation industry best practice planning software consolidates all crew management in one system.
AUTOMATED MAINTENANCE AND OVERHAUL SYSTEM
A comprehensive, fully integrated software system that coordinates maintenance, engineering and logistics across our global operations.
OPERATIONAL FLIGHT PLANNING SYSTEM
Our OFPS puts flight information at the fingertips of our crews, so that they can reduce cockpit workload and create the safest flight environment for our passengers.
FLIGHT DATA MONITORING
Our powerful safety tool that studies operational trends from flight data allows us to identify and address operational risks and constantly review and enhance procedures.
LEADING BEST PRACTICE ACROSS THE HELICOPTER SERVICES SECTOR
We take a leadership role in industry collaboration to develop, adopt, and share best practices, emerging safety systems, tools and initiatives across the rotary and fixed wing aviation industry. We’re a founding member of HeliOffshore, the global safety organisation for the offshore aviation industry, and we continue to support the International Helicopter Safety Team.
CHC ANNUAL SAFETY AND QUALITY SUMMIT
For 20 years, our three day, internationally recognized Summit has focused on one thing: practical ideas that help build safer, stronger operations.
This year, our theme Time to Change the Conversation? Challenging the Illusion of Risk in Modern Operations will examine whether Safety Management Systems (SMS) have improved how we manage risk or merely created an illusion of safety.
Strong safety performance depends on comprehensive systems and the effective application of lessons learned from operations. However, a safe outcome does not always mean the system worked as intended.Sometimes, success is achieved because frontline teams use their expertise to compensate for gaps in procedures, systems or resources.
When the outcome is positive, these adaptations can go unexamined. Over time, deviations can become normalized, weak signals go unnoticed, and opportunities to strengthen the system disappear.
Are we examining success with the same curiosity as failure, or allowing a positive outcomes to end the conversation before learning begins?
Join 400+ leaders from aviation, maintenance, energy, emergency response and other asset-intensive industries as we stress-test assumptions and challenge ourselves to systematically identify, scale and sustain learning across everyday operations.
We can't wait to share more about the 20th anniversary Summit’s program and speakers. To learn more and register for your ticket, visit the Summit website.
