    Beyond Human Error: Getting to the Root Cause of Safety Incidents
    8 Oct 2026

    When a safety investigation ends with “human error” or “failure to follow procedure,” are we really addressing the root cause? In this episode of Portside Safety by Baldwin, Ryan, Anne Marie, and Todd discuss why effective investigations must go beyond blame to uncover the decisions, pressures, and processes behind safety incidents—and how asking better questions can lead to safer operations.

    Bridging the Gap Between Flight Ops & Maintenance
    31 Aug 2026

    Better safety starts with better communication. In this Safety Chat, the Portside Safety by Baldwin team explores how flight operations and maintenance can work more effectively together, from clearer write-ups and standardized communication to building stronger relationships across teams.

    They also discuss how communication gaps can contribute to normalization of deviance and why a strong SMS and safety culture help teams identify issues before they become bigger problems.
