Ji-Young Lee and Seong-Woo Choi

Abstract— In this research, we suggested a SSQM (Standard Service Quality Management) program, and by using the SSQM program, we conducted service training for all the staffs. And then, we evaluated the decent appearance and positive service attitude of employees as part of service quality management based on a suggested assessment checklist format. It was the first time that the assessment was introduced to staffs of either overseas airport service department of Asiana Airlines or its outsourcing companies. This study revealed significant results that the staffs of Manila station displayed obvious improvements in both appearance and attitude. In this paper, we aim to show the practical SSQM Program for service quality improvement executed in real airlines and its effectiveness assessed by their employees.

Index Terms— Airport ground service performance, SSQM, appearance, attitude.
