The purpose of this study is to reveal the importance of a sustainable maintenance management that will support the effective, efficient and safe flights of aircraft and the provision of airworthiness conditions in order for businesses to be permanent in the sector and continue their aviation activities despite the increasing competition conditions in the aviation sector. The full fulfillment of the airworthiness condition is possible with an effective maintenance management system. Sustainable maintenance management focuses on optimizing maintenance processes by considering the social, economic and environmental responsibilities of businesses. In this context, the Corporate Social Responsibility approach emerges as an inseparable part of the sustainable maintenance management approach. Aviation businesses should not only consider their own commercial interests but also their responsibilities towards the environment and society while continuing their activities. In this study, sustainable maintenance management is discussed under three main headings: sustainable human resources management, sustainable material management and sustainable waste management. The need for qualified maintenance personnel in the aviation sector continues to be an important problem for growing aviation businesses. In terms of material management, the long-lasting, efficient and environmentally friendly use of materials is among the main priorities of manufacturers in line with sustainability goals. Sustainable waste management includes the disposal of oil, hydraulic fluids, tires and other consumables resulting from aircraft maintenance without harming the environment or recycling them into the economy. In the conclusion of the study, it was concluded that sustainability-oriented maintenance management practices would provide cost advantages to aviation companies and provide high social prestige.

摘要

The purpose of this study is to reveal the importance of a sustainable maintenance management that will support the effective, efficient and safe flights of aircraft and the provision of airworthiness conditions in order for businesses to be permanent in the sector and continue their aviation activities despite the increasing competition conditions in the aviation sector. The full fulfillment of the airworthiness condition is possible with an effective maintenance management system. Sustainable maintenance management focuses on optimizing maintenance processes by considering the social, economic and environmental responsibilities of businesses. In this context, the Corporate Social Responsibility approach emerges as an inseparable part of the sustainable maintenance management approach. Aviation businesses should not only consider their own commercial interests but also their responsibilities towards the environment and society while continuing their activities. In this study, sustainable maintenance management is discussed under three main headings: sustainable human resources management, sustainable material management and sustainable waste management. The need for qualified maintenance personnel in the aviation sector continues to be an important problem for growing aviation businesses. In terms of material management, the long-lasting, efficient and environmentally friendly use of materials is among the main priorities of manufacturers in line with sustainability goals. Sustainable waste management includes the disposal of oil, hydraulic fluids, tires and other consumables resulting from aircraft maintenance without harming the environment or recycling them into the economy. In the conclusion of the study, it was concluded that sustainability-oriented maintenance management practices would provide cost advantages to aviation companies and provide high social prestige.
