About REPCON
REPCON is a voluntary and confidential reporting scheme administered by the Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB). It allows any person who has an aviation, marine or rail safety concern to report it to the ATSB. The scheme is established under the Transport Safety Investigation (Voluntary and Confidential Reporting Scheme) Regulation 2012 for the purpose of enabling the ATSB to identify unsafe procedures or practices, and give information to relevant industry participants to facilitate action and awareness about transport safety issues.
