WC 10.7.8 USE OF MULTIPLE ATCO RATINGS

 

IFATCA Policy is:

ATCOs shall not provide both surveillance approach service and aerodrome control service simultaneously.

ATCOs required to provide a surveillance approach service and a surveillance area service simultaneously should be strongly discouraged by MAs.

When ATCOs are required to exercise more than one rating during their operational shift, the procedure shall undergo a safety risk assessment with consideration of:

  • The human performance of the ATCO, specifically the risk of mode-switching errors;
  • Fatigue risk management;
  • The ability to maintain sufficient controller competency.

See: Resolution C6, C7, C8 – WP 159 – Montego Bay 2023
