They are responsible for enforcing them and for implementing all the corrective actions that that may be determined.
Each employee, in turn, shares responsibility for his or her safety by conducting their tasks in a safe and conscientious manner, and by observing all safety rules and regulations of the company.

Keewatin Air LP is committed to the safety of its employees and customers. Safety in all departments is the responsibility of each employee. To ensure this commitment, it is imperative that we have uninhibited reporting of all incidents and occurrences that may compromise the safety of our operations.
Each employee shares the responsibility for communicating any information that may affect the integrity of company safety. Employees can be assured that this communication will not result in reprisal, thus further allowing a timely, uninhibited flow of information occurring within the Keewatin company culture.
Keewatin Air LP has developed a safety reporting system for use by all employees for sharing information concerning safety issues within the company. An employee can utilize the online Safety Management Systems website to file a safety occurrence or identify a safety hazard.
Keewatin Air LP has a fully functioning Safety Management System (SMS) as per Transport Canada’s Canadian Aviation Regulations. Keewatin Air LP’s SMS is to be used as a safety reporting system by all employees for sharing information concerning safety issues within the company. An employee can utilize the online Safety Management Systems website to file any safety occurrences or identify safety hazards. Keewatin Air LP’s SMS can protect the identity of the employee who provides information by allowing a person to submit safety occurrences and/or hazards anonymously.
All employees have the duty to utilize this program to assist Keewatin Air LP in continuing its leadership in providing our customers and employees with the utmost level of safety.
