What is the purpose of the diamond of safety?

The diamond of safety is designed specifically to ensure safety around the aircraft. It serves as a visual and physical guide for personnel working near the aircraft, highlighting areas where caution is necessary to prevent accidents and injuries. By establishing clear boundaries and indicating zones where safety protocols must be observed, this system helps to maintain a safe working environment. It reinforces the importance of being aware of surroundings, especially when vehicles, equipment, and personnel are in proximity to operational aircraft. This focus on safety minimizes the risk of incidents, which is crucial in high-stakes environments like airport operations.
