Abstract

Aircraft ground services are essential to the aviation industry and aviation services, yet management systems and improvement measures for operations and safety have not been adequately addressed in the revision of the old aviation law. This study utilized structural equation modeling and the UTAUT model to analyze the perceived acceptance of smart safety technologies among ground handling service workers. The findings indicated that perceived ease of use had a more significant than perceived usefulness impact on the acceptance of smart safety technologies among ground handling service workers. In light of these findings, it is recommended that the aviation safety management authority establish a policy vision for the adoption of smart safety technologies and consider implementing measures such as the introduction of smart safety technology test beds to enhance safety management and work efficiency of aircraft ground handling services.
