In Annex I point 1 of Section 2 is replaced by the following: ‘1. SAFETY KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS (a) The first national/FAB safety KPI for the first reference period shall be the effectiveness of safety management as measured by a methodology based on the ATM Safety Framework Maturity Survey. With regard to Member States and their national supervisory authorities and air navigation service providers, certified to provide air traffic services or communication, navigation and surveillance services, this KPI shall be measured by the level of implementation of the following Management Objectives: — Safety policy and objectives; — Safety risk management; — Safety assurance; — Safety promotion; — Safety Culture. (b) The second national/FAB safety KPI for the first reference period shall be the application of the severity classification below based on the Risk Analysis Tool methodology to the reporting of, as a minimum, three categories of occurrences: Separation Minima Infringements, Runway Incursions and ATM-specific occurrences at all Air Traffic Control Centres and at airports. Member States may decide not to apply the method at airports with less than 50 000 commercial air transport movements per year. When reporting the above occurrences Member States and air navigation service providers shall use the following severity classes: — Serious incident — Major incident — Significant incident — No safety effect — Not determined; for example insufficient information available, or inconclusive or conflicting evidence precluded such determination. Reporting on the application of the method shall be done for individual occurrences. (c) The third national/FAB safety KPI for the first reference period shall be the reporting by the Member States and their air navigation service providers through a questionnaire established in accordance with paragraph (e), which measures the level of presence and corresponding level of absence of just culture. (d) During the first reference period, there will be no EU wide safety performance targets. However, Member States may set targets corresponding to these Safety KPIs. (e) In order to facilitate the implementation and measurement of the safety KPIs, EASA – in consultation with the Performance Review Body - shall adopt before the start of the first reference period acceptable means of compliance and guidance material in accordance with the procedure adopted under Article 52 of Regulation (EC) No 216/2008. (f) Eurocontrol shall provide, in a timely manner, the information needed for the development of the documents referred to in point (e), including at least the specification of the Risk Analysis Tool methodology and its further development and the details of the methodology of the Safety Framework Maturity Survey and its weighting factors. (g) The yearly measurement of the KPIs referred to in points (a) and (c) (questionnaires on effectiveness of safety management and just culture) by national supervisory authorities and air navigation service providers shall be reported to the EASA for the previous year by the national supervisory authorities before 1st February of each year. These yearly measurements shall be used as input for the monitoring functions described in points (h) and (i). If any changes in the yearly measurement of the KPIs occur the national supervisory authorities shall present those changes before the next yearly report is being due. (h) National supervisory authorities shall monitor the implementation and measurement of the safety KPIs by air navigation service providers, in accordance with the procedures for safety oversight established in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1034/2011 (3). (i) In the context of its standardisation inspections the EASA shall monitor the implementation and measurement of the safety KPIs by national supervisory authorities, in accordance with the working methods referred to in Article 24 of Regulation (EC) No 216/2008. The EASA shall inform the Performance Review Body of the outcome of these inspections.
