The System Safety branch is responsible for the evaluation of the safety of the aviation transportation system in Atlantic Canada and the conduct of aviation safety promotional activities both within and outside the Department. It maintains a continuing program of risk assessment and trend analysis of aviation incidents within the Region.

Visits: System Safety continuously evaluates the aviation system and identifies areas of high risk, in part by studying reports from such sources as the Civil Aviation Daily Occurence Reports and the Transportation Safety Board; and in part by maintaining close links with the aviation community through the conduct of safety seminars, training programs, safety visits, safety surveys, and safety reviews.

CASARA: System Safety provides the Transport Canada support to the Civil Air Search and Rescue Association (CASARA), a nation-wide volunteer aviation association dedicated to promoting aviation safety and providing aircraft and crews to support the National Search and Rescue Program.
