Purpose and Scope

0.1.1

Purpose of the Quality Manual


The purpose of this Quality Manual is to set forth a Quality Management
System required by VAR 12.073.

0.1.2

Scope of applicability

te
d

This manual is authorised by the Accountable Executive (CEO) and is


applicable to all Company employees and contractors.

pr

in

This manual provides an assurance framework for the Companys


integrated flight safety and operational document systems (see SMS
Manual) and the Quality Assurance and Audit programmes. It will be
issued in soft copy and available to all staff on the Jetstar Pacific
Intranet.

w
he

The document system is comprised of the Companys suite of manuals


that outline in detail the procedures and processes for implementing,
controlling and monitoring Company operations within the scope of the
Air Operators Certificate and in accordance with the Law.

lle

Regulatory compliance is implicit in all Quality Management Systems.


As a minimum, the Company will comply with all Vietnam government
laws and regulations. The State Safety Program of Vietnam, Civil
Aviation Authority of Vietnam Regulations (VAR), Civil Aviation of
Vietnam Advisory Circulars, ICAO and IATA recommended standards
and guidance material, international civil aviation regulations,
international best practices and ISO 9001:2008 shall be considered key
elements in the benchmarking of Company standards and operations.

tro

Compliance and conformance shall be reviewed as part of the


Companys continuous improvement program and any areas of
improvement shall be addressed through documented processes.

on

This manual shall be reviewed at intervals not exceeding 12 months


and shall be updated as required by significant changes.

Quality Philosophy

nc

0.1.3

Quality, like safety are concepts that are owned by all Company
employees, ie. each employee is responsible for the quality and safety
of their work. A Quality Management System (QMS) is a documented
overarching management philosophy that provides the framework for
producing quality work. This quality support system is owned by the
Company and its department managers with SQA acting as its
custodian and the GMSQA as its sponsor.
Quality Assurance (QA) and Quality Control (QC) are important but
totally separate components of a Quality Management System (QMS).
QA provides the level of product and process conformance/compliance
assurance by comparing actual production processes with documented
processes. QC is the process of examining a product or process for
conformance using personnel who did not conduct the work.

Copyright Jetstar Pacific


Quality Manual

Issue 2.0

0-1
1/06/2016

Jetstar Pacific Airlines

Section 0 General

Instead of concentrating on the finished product or process, QA takes a


holistic process-based approach that identifies areas that could be
susceptible to errors, especially the interactions between multiple
business units and suppliers. QA is therefore a proactive process and is
performed by the QA department.

te
d

The QA department should remain independent of all aspects of


production and therefore should have no involvement in the planning,
performance, recording or certifying of the product or process
inspected. The QA department plays the role of critic, not policeman, by
identifying existing or potential defects and bringing them to the
attention of the responsible managers. In urgent cases, SQA and
Security managers have the authority to immediately halt any Company
process to preserve safety or system integrity pending escalation.

lle

w
he

Many products/processes are susceptible to errors that are difficult


if not impossible to find by direct inspection;
QC can degrade quality due to the knowledge that an inspection will
be done and the assumption that the inspector will assume
responsibility for the work. This leads to complacency caused by
minimal task ownership;
Quality cannot be inspected into a product/process therefore
rejecting work in its final stages is an inefficient and expensive way
to do business; and
QC is often part of the production process and so must remain
independent of QA functions to avoid conflict of interest.

pr

in

The process of examining a product/process for conformance using


personnel who did not conduct the work is called QC. Four key
limitations of QC are:

on

tro

QC is normally a reactive process that should be performed wherever


practicable by the department responsible for performing the work
(unless mandated otherwise by Regulation or the Company SMS). The
quality of QC should then be verified by the QA department via the
independent oversight audit program.

nc

While inspection of the final product/process remains an essential part


of the QA process, there are some significant differences between this
and a QC final inspection:

The primary purpose is not to find defects per se (although if faulty


items are found they will be rejected) - rather, the finished
product/process is inspected as one means of confirming the
satisfactory operation of the system as a whole;
QA does not sign for any work performed and therefore does not
interfere with the process;
QA inspections are done by sampling, rather than looking at 100
percent of the items involved;
QC philosophy recognises that not all work requires independent
inspections. The requirement for independent inspections is
normally determined according to the risk and mitigations/controls
that are already in place.

Purpose of Auditing

te
d

An audit is a systematic and independent process to objectively review


and evaluate the effectiveness, efficiency and economy of an operation,
process, procedures or system against established criteria. The audit
includes an observation of the way in which the operation or process is
being conducted against the way in which the published procedures say
it is to be conducted. Areas for improvement (findings) are then
communicated to the responsible Jetstar Pacific managers for their
corrective actions.

in

An audit should provide a mechanism for corporate governance and risk


reduction and should give the level of assurance of compliance,
conformance and safety of operations.
The main objectives of an audit are:

To establish whether the relevant regulatory, legal and Company


requirements/standards are adequately met;
To determine whether the methods/activities in use comply and
conform with policies, procedures, and instructions as planned, and
whether they are effectively implemented to sufficiently achieve
objectives;
To provide an opportunity to review and improve effectiveness of
the current management systems;
Identifying organisational and latent conditions that may adversely
affect safe and efficient flight operations;
Providing an effective line of communication throughout the
company;
Be a positive motivator for potential process improvement
opportunities;
To evaluate the effectiveness of systems controls.

(SME) may be seconded by the GMSQA or GM Security to ensure an
audit team has the required operational input to ensure the process
adds value to the Company.

in

An auditor is qualified to be a part of an audit team after completing a


recognised auditors course. A copy of the course completion certificate
must be kept on file in SQA or Security as relevant.

pr

Only qualified Lead Auditors will be permitted to lead an audit team.


Inexperienced auditors will be paired with experienced auditors until
deemed competent by the OQA Manager. All audits conducted must be
led by a Lead Auditor. Wherever possible an operational audit should
consist of at least two auditors, including the Lead Auditor.

w
he

An auditor qualification is perpetual. Audits shall be reviewed


periodically to monitor auditor performance. A list of qualified auditors
is held by the SQA Department.

2.4.2

lle

Form JP/OF 0058 identifies the Jetstar Pacific internal auditors


authorised to conduct Jetstar Pacific audits. This form can only be
updated by the GMSQA and GM Security or OQA Manager after sighting
the auditors qualifications and experience. This form shall be reviewed
at least annually and updated when required.

Independence

SQA and Security function is a support service to the business, whilst


also providing assurance and oversight to the senior management
team. However, auditors should not have any day-to-day involvement
in the area of the operation or maintenance activity that is to be
audited. In all cases the SQA will ensure that persons directly
responsible for the activities to be audited are not selected as part of
the auditing team.
Whilst performing some production functions, TQA generally functions is
an oversight service to the Part 5 Maintenance Organisation. TQA
auditors can audit functions for which they do not themselves have
production responsibility.

Audit Scheduling

2.6.1

General
The quality assurance programme includes the process and protocols
implemented within Jetstar Pacific to provide an effective level of
assurance.
The audit program is based on identifying the level of risk of each
supplier, contractor, departments and systems relevant to Jetstar
Pacific operations, and using the QRAG as the basis of measuring risk.

2.6.2

in

te
d

It is flexible to allow for the limited resources to be effectively allocated


to ensure an adequate level of assurance based on risk, and also to
enable unscheduled assurance activities when trends or new
operational requirements are identified.

Audit Plan

w
he

pr

The audit plan is normally established as an annual plan, and may


change according to operational priorities, change in risk and manpower
availability. Follow up audits or quality inspections may be scheduled
when deemed necessary by the Audit Manager or GMSQA or GM
Security to verify that effective corrective and preventive actions were
implemented.

lle

The audit plan is reviewed and approved at least on an annual basis or


as required by the GMSQA. A periodic review of follow-up of corrective
actions is conducted in accordance with Operations Corrective Action
procedure JP/OP 0004 and Maintenance Corrective Action procedure
JP/OP 0002.

on

tro

Audits not completed as per schedule in the Annual Audit Plan shall be
transferred to the next available occasion in the current year Audit Plan,
or where that is not possible, to as early as possible in the following
year in addition to that years audits.

Risk-Based Auditing
Audit frequency is normally assigned by risk. Significant changes to
senior management, the organisation, operations, systems or the
regulatory environment should be assessed for their impact on the
Company and the level of assurance required.

nc

2.6.3

Oversight strategies will usually be advised by risk assessment of


findings.
Refer to Section 1of the Jetstar Pacific Safety Management System
Manual, for the table that describes the levels of oversight required
based on risk.
Audit schedules should be reviewed at least annually or at such shorter
intervals as when required, and updated where necessary, to ensure
that the audit plan continues to be appropriate to the Company.

Actions are developed to resolve the Findings and Recommendations


that are made as a result of Internal and External Audits, Investigations
and Risk Assessments. For each Finding, the contributory factors must
be established and the Lead Auditor/Investigator will normally provide a
Recommendation that addresses the Finding. An Action must be
developed to address the Recommendation. The Action Owner must
develop an Action that adequately addresses the contributory factors of
the Finding. The Action Tracker, and where required the Lead
Auditor/Lead Investigator/Risk Assessment Facilitator will provide
advice to the Action Owner on the suitability of proposed corrective and
preventive actions if requested.

operations or safety of Jetstar Pacific aircraft, passengers, crew or


contractors.
Prior to engaging a provider, the Company is responsible for ensuring
that the QA and Safety systems of the provider are assessed and the
suppliers risk is evaluated. Any decision to select a particular provider
must include their risk profile as well as other Company or legal
selection criteria.
A written contract should exist between the Company and
subcontractor that clearly defines the services required and quality,
safety and security deliverables.

in

te

Wherever possible, a Quality, Safety and Security Plan should be


developed and included in the contract that describes how the
subcontractor will comply with the Companys Management Systems.
This should include evidence of mandatory authorisations/approvals.

pr

Department Manager

w
he

The Department Manager (or delegate) has direct responsibility for the
day to day management of the supplier operating in support of their
business unit. Operational, safety and contractual oversight is provided
by Procurement, Safety and an Executive Sponsor where required.
Where the department is directly involved in the selection of a Supplier,
the Head of Department is responsible for ensuring that the Quality
Manual requirements for Supplier selection are completed.
Procurement

tro

lle

When required and during the initiation and selection stage


Procurement holds responsibility for managing and coordinating the
response of suppliers. Procurement is responsible for ensuring that
Supplier Selection documentation is completed and signed by
responsible manager, and for ensuring that the safety risk assessment
is completed and used as part of the selection process.

nc

on

Once the third party provider has been engaged Procurement has a
responsibility to assist in communication to the supplier regarding their
contractual obligations, and informing SQA and Security of the details
of the Supplier so that the Assurance Plan can be updated to include
the Supplier.

Assessment and Audit Oversight

in

2.9.5

te
d

Further, there is a difference between those third party providers which


have limited or minimal impact upon the safe operations of the
Company and those that do. To ensure that providers are effectively
managed, a Risk Assessment conducted by the responsible Department
in consultation with SQA/Security should be applied to the service outsourced and the appropriate Supplier Management strategy adopted.
Further details of how risk assessments are to be conducted are found
in the Jetstar Pacific Safety Management System Manual, Section 2
Risk Management.

pr

Oversight strategies for suppliers and contractors will normally be


allocated by risk.

w
he

The department using the provider shall notify the OQA Manager (for
operational related), AQA Manager (for Part 12 related) or TQA Manager
(for Part 5 related), that a contract review or supplier selection is to be
conducted to ensure a suitable Management strategy is adopted.

The Company automatically accepts all OEMs as perpetual approved


suppliers under the quality system. However the supplier evaluation
checklists (JP.OF 0017 and JP.OF 0018) and risk assessments are still
required to be completed before engaging the OEM supplier, and
assurance activities shall be conducted according to the risk level.

lle

SQA will provide advice, support and expertise when requested to


ensure departments are meeting their oversight obligations. SQA has
final authority over assigned risk level.

on

tro

As a minimum, the department evaluating and selecting providers shall


complete the Supplier Selection Document JP.OF 0017 and Cover Sheet
for Supplier Selection Document JP.OF 0018. Both documents are
required for each Supplier that is being evaluated, and should form part
of the decision making process by the responsible manager(s).

nc

in

The audit program is reviewed and approved annually by the GMSQA


(form JP/OF 0020). Audit frequency is normally assigned by risk.
Significant changes to senior management, the organisation,
operations, systems or the regulatory environment should be assessed
for their impact on the Company and the level of assurance required.

pr

A periodic review of follow-up of corrective actions is conducted in


accordance with Operations Corrective Action procedure JP/OP 0004.

Scope

w
he

2.

This procedure covers all SQA and Security department personnel who
are required to carry out an operational safety, systems, quality
assurance or airworthiness audit. For Maintenance Audits, refer to
JP/OP 001 and JP/OP 002.

Responsibility

lle

3.

tro

The responsibility for the implementation of this procedure rests with


the OQA Manager.
Lead Auditors and Auditors are responsible for following this procedure
when planning and conducting an audit.

nc

on

All Department Heads are responsible for ensuring their management


team and relevant other employees and contractors are made aware of
the audit, and follow this procedure, in particular as it relates to the
Auditees responsibilities.

4.

Categorising Findings:
1)

All Findings shall be risk assessed using the process outlined in


the Jetstar Pacific Safety Management System Manual, Section 2
Risk Management.

2)

Audit Notification to Auditee(s)

tro

1)

lle

w
he

Formal Audits are normally carried out in according to the audit


schedule. Unscheduled audits may be conducted as requested by
Jetstar Pacific senior management team on the approval of the
GMSQA/ GM Security and/or OQA Manager. A Surveillance [Audit] (or
observation) is normally unscheduled, and the auditee will normally
not be given advance notice of the Surveillance audit. In order to
simplify the auditing process for the auditee, joint audits between SQA
and Security may be conducted with the approval of the GMSQA and
GM Security.

nc

on

The SQA or Security Department will formally advise the relevant


department head and responsible manager. In the case of port
audits of secondary or international ports, the Station
Manager/Representative will also be directly notified. The normal
process will be to provide Auditee management at least 2 weeks
prior notice regarding the timing of the audits, however
unscheduled / unannounced audits may occur from time to time,
at the discretion of the GMSQA, GM Security or OQA Manager
where there is a requirement to do so.
The Lead Auditor will establish initial contact with the Auditee, to
confirm the proposed audit dates are mutually acceptable and
seek access to relevant documentation and information for
preview prior to the audit.
The Auditee will have two working days from initial contact to
inform the Lead Auditor if the proposed audit date is not suitable.
If no information is received in this time, it is determined the
audit date is suitable and the process will continue. SQA/Security
will then send a formal letter, signed by the GMSQA/GM Security

JP/OP 003 Operations & Airworthiness Quality Audits

to the Auditee and any other relevant parties (e.g. Airports


Corporation of Vietnam, contractor ground handling agent,
etcetera). If a joint safety and security audit is being carried out
then normally a single formal letter will be issued, signed by both
the GMSQA and GM Security.
2)

Audit preparation

te
d

Once the audit details have been confirmed and relevant


documentation is received from the Auditee, the Lead Auditor will
convene the audit team (if applicable) to review and define the
objectives and scope of the audit, and identify priority issues that
may exist.

in

Research is performed to confirm relevant risks and controls


underpinning the business process/ project to be audited.
Research includes but is not limited to:
Analysing performance reports (for example JPASC, SubCommittee Meetings, OTP and PTS performance);

Reviewing incidents and occurrences, previous audit and


investigation reports and risk registers to understand the
control environment;

Understanding and reviewing challenges faced including


recent events or changes in the business environment (for
example Change Registers, recently issued INTAPs and
updates to operational manuals).

w
he

pr

lle

In addition, the Audit Checklists will be developed to cover the


scope and requirements of the audit (where checklists have not
been previously assigned during the Program Planning phase).

nc

on

tro

To ensure that the audits are performed efficiently and


effectively, the audit team will ensure that adequate planning and
preparation is conducted prior to the audit. The following
activities will be performed by the Audit Team during the audit
planning session to be held before commencement of the on-site
audit process:

3)

prepare on-site timetable and review / approve with Auditee;

review audit criteria against which the audit is to be


conducted;

Audit checklists are developed as a guide for conduct of the audit and
the operational areas to be explored. They are to be comprehensive
enough to ensure the audit is conducted in sufficient detail to cover all
aspects of the process being audited without being overly prescriptive.
Standardised audit checklists have been developed to cover a range of
common audits. In addition, Lead Auditors should review these
common checklists and where necessary amend the checklist to cover
particular audits to which theyve been assigned. The use of audit
checklists is not intended to restrict the scope of the audit or the Lead
Auditors authority to explore any risk issues identified during the
planning or fieldwork stages of the audit.

Audit checklists have been established for common Operational,


Systems, Technical, Airworthiness and Security related audits.
Additional checklists may be developed should the need be identified.
Audit checklists should be reviewed on at least an annual basis and

for the audit checklists under their area of responsibilities i.e. OQA
Manager (for Operational or Systems Audits), TQA Manager (for Part 5
Audits), AQA Manager (for Part 12 Audits) or .GM Security (for Security
Audits).

In preparation for individual audits, the Lead Auditor is responsible for


reviewing the standardised Audit checklists and where necessary
update the checklist to suit the audit being carried out.

pr

Procedures used for operational purposes, such as those involving


the operations of departments that support flight operations, the
aircraft, Flight or Cabin Crew, ground operations, passengers or
the safety of Jetstar Pacifics operations will be considered as
Operational Procedures. Such departments include but are not
limited to Flight Operations, Ground Operations, Maintenance,
Engineering, Catering and Cargo. Operational Procedures may be
port-specific, and will normally be retained by the contractor
and/or by Jetstar Pacific.

lle

All Operational Procedures must be registered, and a master list


must be maintained by the responsible department that identifies
all operational procedures. Operational Procedures shall be
reviewed at least on an annual basis, or whenever a significant
change occurs, whichever occurs first.

nc

tro

As an airline operating to international destinations, Jetstar Pacific


must comply with international conventions. Accordingly, all
Operational Procedures must be issued in English and may be
translated into Vietnamese where deemed necessary by the Head
of Department. In the event of any discrepancy in the translations
between the Vietnamese and English versions, the English version
will prevail.

Approval
A document may only be edited with the approval of its owner.
The owner is responsible for the documents content including
conformance to Company and regulatory requirements.
Change Management
For all document changes, the Head of Department / General
Manager will determine whether the Companys change
management process is to be applied.
Generally where a change to an operational procedure occurs, the
Companys change management process applies, and risk
assessment in accordance with the Companys SMS Manual
should be applied.

Change Management

4.

tro

lle

The document Sponsor is responsible for justifying if the change


management is required for each amendment. The Manager of
Operations Support is responsible for validating the correct change
management has been followed.

on

Where the procedural manual requires the CAAV to approve or accept


the manual, Jetstar Pacific shall submit the proposed policy or
procedure to the Authority at least 30 days prior to the date of
intended implementation.

nc

For an Approved Manual, the CAAV is required to respond and accept


the proposed policy or procedure before it can be implemented. For an
Accepted Manual, the CAAV may respond with objections if the
Authority wishes to do so. The Company will provide the CAAV with 14
calendar days to respond with objections to the proposed policy or
procedure. In the absence of a response from the CAAV, the Company
presumes that the proposed policy or procedure has been accepted.
Prior to the issue of a policy or procedure amendment (or new
policy/procedure), the department implementing the amendment (or
new policy/procedure) shall issue communications to staff and
contractors affected notifying them of the changes and the updated
policies and procedures, so as to enable them to carry out their roles
safely and correctly.
Due to the dynamic nature of aviation, from time to time, Jetstar
Pacific may require to issue an Operational amendment to operational

or accepted operational manual, the Head of Department shall evaluate
the urgency of the amendment so as to determine whether the change
can be delayed until the next revision of the operational manual or is
to be issued as a temporary revision.

Integration of Information

Information shall be located in whichever document is most


appropriate to the end user. While a procedure or process may be
sponsored by a department, it may be better accessible to end users
located in another departments manual. In this case information
Sponsors shall be identified in the document at the point of insertion.

pr

in

Specific information (like a procedure) shall only appear once in a


Company manual. If for any reason specific information must be
repeated in more than one manual, each occurrence shall reference
the other to insure that changes to one result in the same changes the
other.

To reduce duplication of reporting by Aircrew and Engineers, the
following is a guideline:
Aircrew will be responsible from the time of embarkation,
including transit at a station where maintenance support has
not been contracted and ceases upon disembarkation.

Maintenance staff are responsible for all Line Maintenance


bases.

Contracted maintenance staffs are responsible at all stations


where a maintenance contract is in force.

Reporting forms are readily available in Flight Operations


Department and Technical Department.

For MORs originating from Maintenance or Engineering, the


preliminary investigations will be carried out by the
Maintenance or Engineering Manager. The findings will be
passed to the Chief Technical Officer who will assess whether
any further investigations are necessary to close the report.
The Airworthiness QA Manager will oversight and provide
assistance as required.

For MORs originating from any other operational department,


the standard OSCAR review/actioning process described in the
SMS Manual will be applied.

Information on the occurrence to the Manufacturer shall send


promptly by Engineering Division if required.

All MORs should be closed as soon as practicable. In certain


cases the CAAV may decide to classify it as open, subject to
further investigation by CAAV or for other reasons shall be
controlled in an MOR OPEN file which shall be reviewed
periodically when necessary but in no event exceeding a sixmonthly interval by the GMSQA.

Severe weather, generally defined as strong winds and/or


thunderstorms and/or tropical cyclones is a constant danger to all
industries that maintain outdoor activities. The aviation industry is
particularly affected because of the open areas at airports, the large
metallic pieces of equipment including aircraft and numerous open cab
items of Ground Support Equipment (GSE) which form part of the work
area.
These procedures outline best practices that will minimise the
dangers associated with severe weather and assist staff to be alerted
for the approach of strong winds, thunderstorm or tropical cyclone
and where necessary take appropriate precautions. Station

management has a responsibility to oversee compliance with these


procedures and ensure that all airport operational staff are familiar with
the content of this procedure.
These procedures are based on Vietnam requirements, specific
differences for other countries where Jetstar Pacific operates will be
included in appendices in due course.
Detail procedures can be found in relevant department manuals.

3.1.

Strong Wind

in

Definitions

pr

3.

te
d

It is recommended that this procedure be practiced at each station


annually as a tabletop exercise.

w
he

Strong wind is defined as either a mean wind speed of 34 knots or


more OR wind gusts in excess of 41 knots (42 knots or more). These
speeds are determined in accordance with the Tan Son Nhat Meteorology
Office products.

lle

Note: Winds are forecast and observed usually in open spaces


(free from obstruction) at the observers station at
respective airports. As such, wind speeds around terminal
buildings, aerobridges, etc., can differ to those
forecast/observed due to funneling and other small scale
effects.

Wind Gust

tro

3.2.

3.3.

on

A sudden increase of wind speed, above the mean wind, usually lasting
a few seconds but can last up to one minute. Gusts are usually around
10 knots higher than the mean wind speed.

Mean Wind

nc

Mean wind is the 10 minute average of wind speed in any direction (i.e.
sustained wind speed).

3.4.

Thunderstorms (Lightning)
Thunderstorms typically involve weather conditions which may include
strong wind, wind gusts and/or Lightning. Lightning is an electrical
discharge between clouds or between clouds and the ground. Cloud to
earth lightening activity is a high/extreme hazard.

Tropical cyclone

3.5.

A tropical cyclone is a rapidly rotating storm system characterized by a lowpressure center, strong winds, and a spiral arrangement of thunderstorms
that produce heavy rain.

te
d

Tropical cyclone intensity is defined by the maximum mean wind speed


over open flat land or water. This is sometimes referred to as the
maximum sustained wind and will be experienced around the eye-wall of
the cyclone.
Tropical cyclone category:

pr

in

(1) CATEGORY 1 (tropical cyclone)


A Category 1 cyclone's wind speeds are 34 - 47 kt (62 - 88
km/h). These winds correspond to CAT 8 to 9 in Vietnam
national storm scale.

w
he

(2) CATEGORY 2 (tropical cyclone)


A Category 2 cyclone's wind speeds are 48 - 63 kt (89 - 117
km/h). These winds correspond to CAT 10 to 11 in Vietnam
national storm scale.

(3) CATEGORY 3 (severe tropical cyclone)


A Category 3 cyclone's wind speeds are 64 85 kt (118 158 km/h). These winds correspond to CAT 12 to 14 in
Vietnam national storm scale.

tro

lle

(4) CATEGORY 4 (severe tropical cyclone)


A Category 4 cyclone's wind speeds are 86 - 107 kt (159 201 km/h). These winds correspond to CAT 14 to 16 in
Vietnam national storm scale.

(5) CATEGORY 5 (severe tropical cyclone)


A Category 5 cyclone's wind speeds are over 108 kt (202
km/h). These winds correspond to CAT 17 or above in
Vietnam national storm scale.

4.1.

Communications
Effective communication is an essential element to support this
process. Each airport will communicate to the Jetstar Pacific station
manager and ground handling agents (GHA) through various methods,
whether they are visual, audible or other options. Jetstar Pacific ground
personnel must ensure effective teamwork and communication during
severe weather conditions. Notification must cover all personnel,
contractors, visitors and passengers (approaching and departing the
terminal, aircraft arriving and departing). These procedures must be
incorporated with the existing building emergency control procedures
and their notification methods.

te
d

Communication of the activation/cancellation of the severe weather


procedures can be achieved by using one or more of the following
methods:
Two-way radios (ground to ground) are an effective means of
notification and communication;
Wireless intercom or mobile phones the use of fixed telephone
systems during thunderstorms must be kept to a minimum (hands free
or cordless are exempt);
Contact to aircraft via ACARS.

lle

w
he

pr

in

Each Jetstar Pacific Station manager should develop a local notification


contact list to streamline the notification process and a record of
notifications/events be recorded. Advice must be passed (usually by
Ramp Operations and the Passenger Service Manager) to all personnel
who may be working on the ramp/tarmac. This includes but not limited
to:
Ramp staff;
Cabin cleaners;
GSE personnel;
Cabin crew;
Maintenance and engineering (line) staff;
Catering staff;
Customer Service Agents;
Outside contractors (refueling companies, etc.);
Technical crew. Notification to technical crew is essential due to their
requirement to notify cabin crew, for aircraft walk around purposes,
passenger notification, etc.

Procedures

tro

4.2.

nc

on

Depending on the weather condition observed at the airport, the


station manager or his/her delegate will arrange several actions to be
taken on a day-to-day basis to assure minimal damage during a
severe weather event. Preparation may prevent or minimise damage
when advance notification of approaching severe weather event
occurs without warning. These may include but are not limited to:
Recheck all parked equipment to ensure that the brakes are on.
Park rolling stock against or near a building where possible or otherwise
in secured parking areas away from the aircraft.
Clear debris from all areas and keep it clear. Use a restraint system on
ULD racks.
Keep only equipment in the area that is currently being used.
Retract aerobridges away from overnighting aircraft.

All managers, supervisors and contracted GHA personnel must be notified


in order to commence safeguard measures as detailed in this section of
the procedures. All ground personnel must ensure that procedures are
in place to have adequately restrain all plant and equipment, which
may be subject to unplanned movement due to the strong winds. All
ground personnel should have knowledge of aircraft and equipment
limitations and capabilities under these circumstances.

in

The safe loading and unloading of empty aircraft Unit Load Devices (ULDs)
must be assessed and managed appropriately throughout this phase. The
Ramp Supervisor shall communicate with their Ramp Staff. Empty
ULDs must have the ULD flap closed and locked in position.

w
he

pr

Outlined below are preventative measures that MUST be followed:

Remove all non-essential ground support equipment from and or


near the aircraft. Remove any loose equipment, e.g. cones,
ladders, etc.

Any other miscellaneous items of equipment must also be adequately


secured, including any equipment belonging to outside contractors
(e.g. contractors rubbish bins).

All empty pallets and Unit Load Devices (ULDs) are to be adequately
restrained (e.g. tied down or racked) with doors securely fastened
so that they do not cause damage.

lle

Note: For ULDs stored unrestrained, tie them together, or to firm


structure.
Rolling stock with ULDs loaded on them must have the park-brake
applied where fitted, and, if not fitted, rolling stock must either by
chocked and/or connected in a train.

tro

nc

on

Note: Pallet locks must be raised on rolling stock to restrain ULDs.


However, on some rolling stock this restraint facility may not be
available and the ULD must be physically restrained to the rolling
stock.

Barrows and Dollies (with or without ULDs loaded on them) must be


moved to a protected area and have the park brake applied (where
fitted). If no park brake is fitted, the barrows and dollies must then
either be chocked, or connected in a train.

All ground support equipment must be cleared of rubbish and/or


other loose items to prevent FOD on the tarmac.

Where possible, hook up the tow tractor and tow bar. If time
permits and parking areas are available, move aircraft into
hangars or park the aircraft in sheltered areas or face aircraft into
the direction of the wind.

Section 6 Safety

JP/OP 0020 - Severe Weather Control Procedures

Where possible, retract aerobridges and or mobile stairs away


from the aircraft.

Aircraft must be checked to ensure they are properly chocked, brakes


parked with exposed doors closed. Where possible, the aircraft
should be turned into the wind and control surfaces locked. These
procedures must be in compliance with the relevant Aircraft
Maintenance Manuals (strong wind parking conditions).

The loading and unloading of empty aircraft ULDs must not be


performed due to the ULDs being unrestrained on the loader. In these
circumstances, empty ULDs will be planned to remain onboard the
aircraft, and the outbound loads can also be planned to remove the
requirement of any empty ULDs. This process is in consultation with
pilot-in-command.

All ground support equipment must be secured, high lift vehicles


are to be lowered and stabilisers deployed, mobile stairs moved to
protected areas, pallets and ULDs tied down and rolling stock
chocked, or adequately restrained.

Maintenance stands and non-motorised steps must not be used or


must not be left unattended at or near an aircraft unless suitably
restrained. Alternatively, clear all stands to a protected area well
away from any aircraft. Brakes must be individually checked and
set.

If thunder is associated
Ensure that staff working on the tarmac are informed of the
approaching thunderstorms or tropical cyclones and where necessary
are withdrawn from open areas should the storms come in close
proximity to the airport. Refueling must be stopped.
If thunder can be heard, there may be a risk. Louder or more frequent
thunder indicates lightening activity is approaching, increasing the risk for
lightening injury or death.

nc

If a tropical cyclone is approaching


It is not safe to have any aircraft at the affected port. Flight Dispatch
with the consent of CEO/COO should evacuate aircraft(s) out of that
airport as soon as practical before the forecast arrival time of the
cyclone. This includes ferrying aircraft(s) currently on the ground at
that airport.
In case the evacuation of an AOG aircraft is not possible, when
tropical cyclone approaches (Tropical cyclone CAT 2 and above - CAT
10 and above according to nation storm scale with wind speed exceed
50 kt), technical department shall:

Operations shutdown

te
d

Operations shutdown because of heavy thunderstorm or tropical


cyclones is decided by the respective airport authority. Where the
airport authority has not issued a full airport operations shutdown, and
the Station Manager or delegate has reason to believe there is a
substantial and immediate danger to personnel or aircraft, the Station
Manager or delegate shall immediately inform Jetstar Pacific OCC (who
will activate BL CAT) and should take action to safeguard JPA staff and
aircraft as a matter of priority over operations.
During the operations shutdown:

Fuelling operations must cease and if safe to do so, the usual


disconnection sequence applied. The refueling equipment
should be moved clear of the aircraft to a safe area and the
refueller must take shelter.

Open ramp areas are to be evacuated.

If passengers have not commenced boarding an aircraft,


consider holding them in the gate lounges. If passengers are
boarding, review this process and consult with the flight crew.
Consider leaving those who have boarded onboard the aircraft.
This will also apply for de- boarding of passengers under these
circumstances.

No place is absolutely safe from the threat of lightening,


however, some places are safer than others, e.g. inside
terminal buildings, fully enclosed metallic vehicles or safety
shelters.

During the operations shutdown period, personnel should not:

4.6.

The GMSQA, Head of Human Resources and Head of Department must


approve the return to work of an employee who has been stood down
due to a breach of the A&OD policy or DAMP.
A key aim of the Policy is to encourage employees to recognise if they
have a problem with alcohol or other drugs and to voluntarily obtain
the assistance they need.
Where an employee voluntarily seeks help (i.e.: self-referral) from
their Manager/Supervisor, HR Department manager, Company Doctor
or SQA, the Company will endeavour to ensure discretion and strict
confidentiality is maintained whilst the employee seeks assistance for
their dependency. It is not mandatory for an employee who self-refers
to be stood down from work duties.
Self referral does not apply when the employee has already been
involved in an incident or show cause situation where an employee has
been identified as having a potential alcohol and/or other drug

It will be the employees responsibility to pay for the specific services
engaged themselves.
Should an employee who self refers wish to remain at work in a SSAA
role, they will be closely monitored for signs of usage of Drugs and
Alcohol to determine if they are fit for duty. If they exhibit signs of
Drugs and Alcohol use whilst at work (refer Appendix 2) then they will
be stood down, and disciplinary/criminal action may be initiated in
accordance with the Just Culture process and Vietnam laws.
