Report A Hazard

At GNWT-operated airports, safety is our top priority.

Reporting hazards and safety concerns is a key part of the Airport Safety Management System (SMS). Hazard reporting helps identify risks early, prevent incidents, and support safe airport operations across all 27 GNWT airports.

What should I report?

Report anything that could affect aviation safety, including:

  • Aircraft incidents or damage

  • Injuries to airside staff

  • Wildlife or bird activity

  • Fuel spills

  • Foreign object debris (FOD)

  • Airfield lighting outages

  • Vehicle or aircraft near-misses

  • Construction or airside safety issues

  • Any other safety concern

Why should I report?

All reports are reviewed to improve safety practices across our airports.

Reporting is focused on improving safety, not assigning blame. 

How do I report?

Airport employees, tenants, and contractors

  • Report concerns to your supervisor or manager.

  • Complete the Incident, Hazard, or Suggestion Reporting Form (This does not replace your company’s internal reporting processes.)

  • There are no penalties for reporting safety concerns. Reports are used to improve safety.

Members of the public

What happens after I report?

  • Your report will be reviewed and acknowledged.

  • You will be advised of the outcome once the review is complete.

  • Anonymous reports are welcome; outcomes are shared through the SMS Newsletter.
