Single Engine OPS

Earlier JAR-OPS and the new EU-OPS (1.240 (a)) states: "An operator shall ensure that operations are only conducted along such routes or within such areas, for which; (6) If single-engine aeroplanes are used, surfaces are available which permit a safe forced landing to be executed."

Now, flying VFR obviously makes this doable. Weather allows a good lookout for safe forced landings, and using VFR charts also allowes the route to be chosen accordingly, and every pilot should have this in their blood.

But how are these procedures regarding IFR and night OPS conducted? Any airline specific procedures to put forward?
