Fiumicino and Ciampino airports to obtain the RINA Biosafety Trust Certification

von 3 August 2020 bis 31 Dezember 2020

Major international recognition for Fiumicino and Ciampino airports in the fight against the spread of Covid-19 and in preventing biological risk from pathogens.

The two Rome airports managed by ADR are the first airports in the world to obtain the Biosafety Trust certification, issued by the certification body RINA SERVICES, relating to the correct application of the system for preventing infection from biological agents. This recognition demonstrates how the protocols adopted at “Leonardo da Vinci” and at “G.B. Pastine” are at the forefront in the procedures for containing the spread of the virus and are an example of best practice to be used as a benchmark to minimise the risks of spreading epidemics.

This certification was obtained following a careful investigation by RINA, which examined the detailed Management System for Preventing and Controlling Infections, implemented by Aeroporti di Roma in order to contain the spread of all possible pathogens that could be transmitted within the airport, from the least dangerous viruses to the most harmful, such as Ebola, Anthrax and Sars-Cov2 (Covid-19). The RINA inspectors initially acquired all the documentation on the operating procedures and protocols at Fiumicino and Ciampino. They then checked compliance with the international reference standards on which this innovative certification scheme is based (ISO 31000 – risk management and ISO 22301 – business continuity). Lastly, they verified, through on-site inspections, the correct application of all procedures.

At the end of the investigation, RINA certified: “the System for Managing the Prevention and Control of Infections at Fiumicino and Ciampino airports, aimed at minimising the risk of contracting diseases, related to pathogens identified and potentially related to the following fields of activity: the provision of airport services, including management and support services (first aid, terminal services, flight control, operational safety, aircraft de-icing and hoisting activities, managing cargo at cargo city); the running and maintenance of systems and infrastructure; the management of ICT systems; commercial and real estate sub-concessions. The coordination of activities involving engineering, procurement and overseeing airport infrastructural works, assistance activities for passengers with reduced mobility, security checks, cleaning, disinfecting and maintaining green spaces, mobility services and car parks.”.
