Australian Airports Liability and Compliance Guide
The inaugural edition of the Australian Airports Liability and Compliance Guide, launched by Julieanne Alroe, Brisbane Airport Corporation's CEO and Managing Director on 22nd July 2009, provides a number of tools to assist in the emerging challenge of regulatory compliance for Australian airports.
The Guide provides a detailed review of four key areas for airport liability and compliance risks including: airport design and development; operations, service and pricing; safety and security; and environment and culture.
Those key to ensuring airport compliance are airport operators, operational and risk managers, consultants, tenants and contractors. Underwriters, claim managers and brokers also have a vital role in understanding the ambit of airport liability and compliance risks.
The aviation team at Carter Newell encourages the use of this Guide where possible and we look forward to a strong ongoing partnership with Australian airports with a commitment to world class regulatory compliance and risk management.
