Download or read book Critical Steps written by Tony Muschara and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-11-22 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Critical Steps happen every day at work and at home, purposefully. Work does not happen otherwise. If an operation has the capacity to do work, then it has the capacity to do harm. Work is energy directed by human beings to create value. But people are imperfect—we make mistakes, and sometimes we lose control of the work. Therefore, work is the use of force under conditions of uncertainty. A Critical Step is a human action that will trigger immediate, irreversible, and intolerable harm to an asset, if that action or a preceding action is performed improperly. Whether the human action involves clicking on a link attached to an e-mail message, walking down a flight of stairs with a newborn baby in arms, engaging the clutch on a gasoline-driven chain saw, or administering a medication to a patient in a hospital, these all satisfy the definition of what constitutes critical risks in our daily lives, professionally or personally. The overarching goal of managing Critical Steps is to maximize the success (safety, reliability, productivity, quality, profitability, etc.) of people’s performance in the workplace, to create value for the organization without losing control of built-in hazards necessary to create that value.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Picture this scenario: You're cruising down the highway, your hands lightly gripping the steering wheel, and your mind wandering in the symphony of your favorite songs. The sun's golden rays bathe your vehicle in warmth, creating the perfect driving experience. Yet, beneath this serene surface, a complex network of systems is diligently at work to ensure your safety. The brakes are ready to respond to your slightest command; airbags stand ready to deploy in milliseconds if the unexpected happens; and the engine hums along, reliably transporting you to your destination. This harmony, this dance of safety and technology, is precisely what functional safety in the automotive industry is all about. Functional safety is not an optional accessory; it's the foundation upon which the entire automotive world rests. The vehicles we drive today are marvels of modern engineering, packed with intricate electronics and software that optimize performance, enhance comfort, and increase fuel efficiency. However, this evolution brings an indispensable responsibility - ensuring that these sophisticated systems do not compromise our safety. This is where functional safety takes center stage.
