CANSO websiteCANSO Annual Information Data Collection 2025

At CANSO’s 26th AGM, in 2022, CANSO Members passed a resolution to enable CANSO to collect certain data in order to enhance communications and advocacy efforts on behalf of its Members.

Our annual information request for 2025, aimed at collecting key facts and figures (i.e. static data) about full Members, is now open and all CANSO Full Members are asked to complete this form by 1 August.

Data being collected includes topics such as:

  • Staffing (e.g. total employees, total number of staff in key roles, number of new ATC licences, age and gender demographics)
  • Financial (e.g. Total revenue, ATS revenue, annual OPEX/CAPEX)

All data will be managed in line with CANSO’s Data and Information Policy which governs collection, disclosure and retention of data.

Before completing the form, it may be helpful to take a moment to look at each area of the form so you have an idea of the information required, and can prepare your responses accordingly. You can use this blank form to help you do that.

This exercise is not aimed at performance metrics and does not overlap with other activities such as those of the Global Benchmarking Workgroup or the Safety Intelligence Workgroup, as these are voluntary activities that continue to bring value to participating members.

The form will be an annual exercise. Over time, the data collected will will allow us to track important trends and to improve our efforts on behalf of Members.

    ‘Full-Time Equivalent (FTE)’ represents the total hours worked by employees, standardized to the hours worked by a full-time employee. For example, if a full-time schedule is 34 hours per week, then an employee working 34 hours per week would be considered 1.0 FTE, while an employee working 17 hours per week would be considered 0.5 FTE. ‘Absolute number of employees’ represents the total headcount of employees in the organisation, regardless of their working hours or whether they are full-time or part-time.
