Descripció del contingut i pla d'activitats:
Safety assessment is a crucial aspect of managing aircraft turnaround operations due to the fast-paced and complex nature of these activities. The turnaround process involves multiple coordinated tasks performed by various stakeholders within tight time constraints, making the environment prone to operational risks. Thorough evaluation and continuous monitoring of safety practices are essential to identify hazards, prevent incidents, and ensure the smooth and secure handling of aircraft on the ground.

By examining reported industry incidents and accidents, the report will identify the most common hazards affecting ground handling activities. These findings will serve as the basis for a critical evaluation of current safety practices, highlighting existing strengths and revealing potential shortcomings. To address these shortcomings, the report proposes an innovative safety tool: a quarterly audit checklist designed to support ground handling teams in consistently evaluating and reinforcing safety standards.

The specific objesctives of the thesis can be summarised as follows:
1. Define the turnaround process, identify stakeholders involved, and justify the importance of safety in this environment.
2. Hazard Identification: research and classification of the most common risks.
3. Analysis of Existing Safety Measures.
4. Proposal of a New Safety Implementation: design of a quarterly audit checklist.
5. Conclusion and evaluation.
