People, employees and customers, not products and machines, must be the arena of an organisation’s core competence. The success of an airline, like any other business organisation, depends, to a large extent, on managerial decisions affecting the organisation’s structure, strategy, culture and numerous operational activities. The industry is a knowledge-based service market that requires practitioners or managers to acquire a sound knowledge of management theory and practice. There are some managers who are capable of taking right decisions owing to their practical experience on the job. Others are able to do so because of the knowledge they acquired in the school. All in all, academic knowledge is not a waste as it provides reasons for decisions taken.

28 Control Lapses in the Nigerian Aviation Industry
CONTROL LAPSES IN THE NIGERIAN AVIATION INDUSTRY: EVIDENCE FROM BELLVIEW STAFF AND PASSENGERS Onyuka Felix Mcdubus, Ph.D Abstract Recent air crashes in Nigerian airspace have sensitized Nigerians about the inadequacies in the aviation industry. What are these lapses and how can they be contained?. This study attempts to answer these questions using Bellview Airline staff and passengers as respondents. We found that the problems are not intractable. The aviation ministry in Nigeria has to look inwards for the solutions. When accidents occur on our highways, the causes are often identified as either the fault of the drivers, the problem with the vehicles, or the state of the roads. Not much of public attention is drawn to such accidents probably because the lives affected are limited in number per accident or because low income, less known personalities travel by road. It is a different issue when air crashes occur. Air accidents are attributed firstly to the inefficiency of the air traffic controllers and only secondly to the airworthiness of the aircrafts. In this study, we will look at the two issues critically and empirically. The Problem Nigerian Aviation industry has been rated as the most unsafe in the world. The Bellview crash and the Sosoliso crash were viewed by the public as quite avoidable . Gandi (2005) indicated that everything in our airports is dead. He also noted that due to government attitude to its policies, airlines appear to be virtually on their own in implementing maintenance and safety standards. Kyari (2005) indicated that where the owner of an airline is “all in all”, there is bound to be lapses.

36 Benchmarking Human Capital Strategies of Domestic and Foreign
Uhboma et al: Benchmarking Human Capital Strategies of Domestic and Foreign Airlines BENCHMARKING HUMAN CAPITAL STRATEGIES OF DOMESTIC AND FOREIGN AIRLINES: EVIDENCE FROM NIGERIA UGBOMA OGOCHUKWU1; UGBOMA CHINONYE2; IBE CALLISTUS3 Department of Transport Management Technology, Federal University of Technology, P.M.B. 1526, Owerri, Imo State, Nigeria, West Africa. E- Mails: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract The object of this research is to investigate the human resource management strategies in the Nigerian Airline Industry. A comparative study was conducted in Nigeria’s airline industry to examine the extent to which Domestic Airlines (DAs) and Foreign Airlines (FAs) operating in the country are using Human Resource Management practices. The findings reveal that real differences exist between the domestic airlines and foreign airlines with respect to barriers to their human resource practices. Kruskal Wallis and ANOVA tests performed show that for the foreign airlines, lack of tangibles and non-supportive management culture are the strongest barriers to the FAs human capital practices while for the DAs, all the barrier factors mentioned are significant at 0.05 level of significance. The study recommends among others that there should be total commitment by the top management, continuous training of employees and knowledge of what accounts for the success of HRM practices in airline organisations. Keywords: Human Resource Management, Domestic Airlines, Foreign Airlines, Nigeria. Introduction Benchmarking has become increasingly important, as organizations strive to compete globally by improving quality and reducing costs (Brillinger, 2001). For many, this means observing, adapting and re-applying best practices from others within the same industry sector (Appleby and Mavin, 2000).
