Download or read book Safety at the Sharp End written by Rhona Flin and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many 21st century operations are characterised by teams of workers dealing with significant risks and complex technology, in competitive, commercially-driven environments. Informed managers in such sectors have realised the necessity of understanding the human dimension to their operations if they hope to improve production and safety performance. While organisational safety culture is a key determinant of workplace safety, it is also essential to focus on the non-technical skills of the system operators based at the 'sharp end' of the organisation. These skills are the cognitive and social skills required for efficient and safe operations, often termed Crew Resource Management (CRM) skills. In industries such as civil aviation, it has long been appreciated that the majority of accidents could have been prevented if better non-technical skills had been demonstrated by personnel operating and maintaining the system. As a result, the aviation industry has pioneered the development of CRM training. Many other organisations are now introducing non-technical skills training, most notably within the healthcare sector. Safety at the Sharp End is a general guide to the theory and practice of non-technical skills for safety. It covers the identification, training and evaluation of non-technical skills and has been written for use by individuals who are studying or training these skills on CRM and other safety or human factors courses. The material is also suitable for undergraduate and post-experience students studying human factors or industrial safety programmes.

This book was released on 2022-04-26 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human Factors Handbook for Process Plant Operations Provides clear and simple instructions for integrating Human Factors principles and practices in the design of processes and work tasks Human Factors, the science of interaction between humans and other elements of a system, draws from disciplines such as psychology, ergonomics, anthropometrics, and physiology to understand how and why people behave and perform as they do—and how best to support them in performing tasks. The goals of the Human Factors approach are to improve human reliability, minimize the risk from human error, and optimize the working environment, human wellbeing, and overall system performance. Human Factors Handbook for Process Plant Operations guides supervisors, managers, and engineers on incorporating Human Factors principles and practices into plant maintenance and operations. With thorough and accessible coverage of all Human Factors topics of relevance to process industries, this easy-to-use handbook uses real-world anecdotes and case studies to demonstrate effective training and learning, task planning, communications, emergency response, risk and error management, and more. Throughout the text, the authors offer valuable insights into why people make mistakes while providing advice on how to help workers perform their process operational tasks successfully. Explains all essential Human Factors concepts and knowledge with clear descriptions and illustrative examples Offers actionable advice and models of good practice that can be applied to design, process operations, start-ups and shut-downs, and maintenance Addresses job aids, equipment design, competence, task support, non-technical skills, working with contractors, and managing change Discusses how lack of Human Factors considerations during the engineering design phase can adversely affect safety and performance Describes how to use indicators to both recognize and learn from human error and performance issues Written by highly experienced operating and maintenance personnel, Human Factors Handbook for Process Plant Operations is an indispensable resource for everyone involved with defining, planning, training, and managing process operations, maintenance, and emergency response in the food, pharmaceutical, chemical, petroleum, and refining industries. The missions of both the CCPS and EI include developing and disseminating knowledge, skills and good practices to protect people, the environment, and property by bringing the best knowledge and practices to industry, academia, governments and the public around the world through collective wisdom, tools, training and expertise.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern threats in aviation, the famous black swans, are unexpected events, sometimes inexplicable, and usually of unpredictable consequences. Modern tools capable of detecting, mitigating, and neutralising these threats are required before they degrade flight safety. The "Pilot Competencies", a set of competencies defined by ICAO, IATA, and EASA, are mandatory, not only in the operation of the flight, but also in the training programs of all pilots, regardless of the type of aircraft, operation, nationality, authority, or company for which they work. This book explains, using traditional methods, how to train to be a safe pilot, that is, competent and resilient, perfectly prepared to face modern threats through the efficient and effective use of these competencies, integrate them into the environments of Human Factors, CRM, TEM, and make the pilot ecosystem a safe place to manage the flight.

Download or read book Symbiotic Safety written by John Bratllof and published by . This book was released on 2020-11 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Being a Safety Professional is not for the weak. There are numerous competing forces, personalities, and agendas. Intuitively it should be simple. How could it be hard to convince people not to get injured or killed? The reality is that it requires a tremendous amount of leadership and skill to successfully navigate an organization and its employees toward safety excellence. The unskilled will advocate for more resources. The poor leader will blame others. The truly successful safety professionals understand the role of safety extends beyond the prevention of accidents. They use their leadership skill and influence to improve overall operational success. Many safety professionals have focused almost all their efforts on compliance monitoring and safety training. Both of these are good ideas. The frustration begins to build because these activities achieve a moderate amount of success, but not a great amount. A frequent limiting factor in many organizations is the safety professional's failure to fully understand how operational efficiency is connected to safety success. Many organizations with charismatic safety professional will be lured into dedicating more resources into nonproductive roles to improve safety via more inspections and safety training. This resource dump is touted as the company's increasing commitment to Safety. Unfortunately, more resources thrown at the same problem will have an even smaller impact. The key component that is often overlooked by safety professionals is that safety and operations work better together. There should not be an Operations Manual and a separate Safety Manual that would indicate one set of procedures to accomplish what we get paid for and then another set of procedures to help ensure no one gets hurt. Safety professionals should be focused on the organizations' operational side to help blend safety and operations into a homogenous activity. This way, the organization produces its product with one set of procedures that is efficient and safe. Never again should there be friction or opposition between safety and operations. Both should symbiotically help each other improve. Achieving this symbiosis requires the modern safety professional to have a tremendous amount of leadership and communication skills. A poor leader or communicator will not be able to bridge the gap between safety and operations. Symbiotic Safety will help safety professionals understand the symbiotic relationship between safety and operations and equip them to understand the leadership and communications skills required to blend them successfully.
