Abstract:

In order to reduce the rate of unsafe events caused by the air traffic controllers爷individual unsafe behaviors,behavior based safety(BBS)are applied to strengthen accident prevention system. Based on the characteristics of the air traffic control system,the rules and the implementation plan are established. It is found that the ten controllers' safety behavior index rises from 65.82% to 72.79% after implementation for 16 weeks,showing a big benefit. With continuous improvement in management system and hardware system,BBS can be used as an effective way to enhance controlling performance on the part of air traffic controllers.

Key words: air traffic controllers, BBS, safety behavior, accident prevention
