Aviation licensed qualifications are essential and the consequences of employing staff without the correct and validated skills severe. All major aviation authorities advise the airlines and maintenance firms under their jurisdiction to ensure any pilots and engineers that they employ are correctly qualified and possess current aviation licensed qualifications.
Failure to comply with these requests can result in court action. After all, any organisation that employs staff without aviation licensed qualifications is putting passengers in danger and this is not acceptable. In addition to checking qualifications, aviation operators must assume responsibility that only qualified personnel carry out safety checks that require a license.
Authorities can request evidence relating to qualifications at any time and this must be provided. There is no margin for error or any excuse for mistakes. Aviation companies must have systems in place to monitor the licenses and qualifications of their staff. Any queries or clarification on grey areas can be resolved by contacting the aviation authority. If any doubt at all exists about the validity of the qualifications of an employee, then contacting the aviation authority is a must. Checks can be made in confidence and aviation licensed qualifications confirmed or denied.
