Aviation Industry Focuses on Mental Health and Wellbeing
The aviation industry, while advancing technologically, faces challenges related to the mental health and fatigue risks of its workforce. This paper emphasizes addressing these 'invisible risks' and proposes using the SAFE™ pillars framework to build psychologically safe workplaces, integrating mental health strategies into safety management systems. By strengthening training, improving support systems, and optimizing the work environment, we can break down stigma and collectively build a happier future for the aviation industry. This includes fostering open communication and ensuring access to mental health resources.
