Safety has always been a concern for aviation organizations; however, most of the research that has been done in this field is related to safety culture in flight operations and not directly related to the Aircraft Maintenance Organizations (AMO). However, the holistic flight safety depends on the conduct of individuals from both Aircraft Maintenance Organizations and flight operations. The risk factors from aircraft maintenance are very crucial and if not mitigated on time, can lead to more accidents and serious incidents. Safety regulations adopted by Safety Management Systems (SMS) may not be always followed because of alleged reasons including time constraints and cost reduction. This problem can be prevented by creating a safety culture. Hence embracing aviation safety culture is very important to guarantee the required safety outcomes. This research aims to provide an overview of the effective implementation of safety management systems and evaluate the safety culture in maintenance organizations in the UAE. The research outcomes and recommendations will help maintenance organizations to enhance the level of safety by adopting an effective safety culture and ensuring effective implementation of safety management system.
