The safety risk management element requires a formal hazard identification and safety risk management process for aviation service providers. Safety risk management must be considered essential to control identified risk to acceptable levels. Risk analysis and assessment activities determine the severity and likelihood of identified risks. Whenever possible and the situation warrants, a causal analysis should be performed and controls designed and implemented.
