EcoOnline’s EHS system supports safer airport operations
EcoOnline is celebrating its partnership with Menzies Aviation, in place since 2019, for its enhancement of the company’s MORSE system.
This system focuses on safety and compliance across Menzies’ global network, which operates at over 295 airports in 65 countries.
Malcolm Rae, Head of Risk Systems & Data at Menzies, said: “We influence safety from the moment passengers walk into an airport to when they leave.”
EcoOnline said that the partnership has driven data-driven solutions for risk management, compliance tracking, and incident reporting.
Improved safety outcomes through data-driven tools
EcoOnline’s EHS platform, integrated with Menzies’ MORSE system, enables employees to identify and address risks in real time.
Menzies Aviation has reported a 128% increase in hazard reporting since implementing the platform.
Serious personal injury rates have also declined, from 1.8 incidents per 1,000 full-time employees in 2019 to 0.7 in 2023.
Graham Cowing, Vice President of Safety Standards at Menzies, said: “EcoOnline’s platform equips everyone with the tools to report hazards and ensure our people go home safely.”
Leadership commitment to safety
Safety is prioritised at all organisational levels at Menzies, as the company noted that its executives begin every board meeting with a “Take 10 for Safety” discussion.
Real-time dashboards from EcoOnline inform these discussions and keep safety central to decision-making.
Cowing said: “Safety is a core value that starts with leadership. Every executive member is committed to getting involved.” These efforts have reinforced accountability across the organisation.
MORSE Week reinforces global safety commitment
Menzies hosts bi-annual MORSE Week events to promote its safety culture.
The most recent event, held from 28 October to 1 November 2024, focused on emergency response planning.
Employees engaged in tools, support, and team-building opportunities to enhance their commitment to safety.
Tom Goodmanson, CEO of EcoOnline, said: “By prioritising safety and collaboration, Menzies Aviation—together with EcoOnline—is setting new benchmarks for industry standards.”
