This paper is essentially a case study of a safety assessment of an air traffic system. Key issues concerning safety management system essentials; safety requirements derivation and safety assurance provision are discussed. The study is based on many safety assessments of air traffic systems recently undertaken for medium-sized UK airports. The impact of the EU directive on interoperability is also reviewed. It has reviewed the following three stages of safety assessments for air traffic systems, the issues that have arisen and how they have been addressed: i) how to establish the tolerable level of risk for a particular air traffic services context; ii) how to derive safety requirements expressed as the integrity required of a safety function, through the allocation of a risk reduction burden; and iii) how to provide assurance regarding the degree to which safety requirements have be met in practice.
