What handlers screen for
Airside driving permits, GSE type authorisations, dangerous goods training and station-specific inductions are the practical gatekeepers. Shift tolerance matters just as much — the operation runs at 04:00 and in December, and reliability is worth more than any line on a CV.
JobAvion records permits, GSE authorisations and training validity so handlers can staff a station without discovering at the gate that a certificate expired last month.
Why ground handling sits in the same network as maintenance
A technical delay is a ground handling problem and a maintenance problem at the same time. Keeping handlers, engineers, operators and parts suppliers in one professional network means the people who have to solve a turnaround problem together are not scattered across four disconnected systems.
