Ep 12: Human performance in barrier/critical control systems

from Safe As Podcast · host Ben Hutchinson

How do you consider the role of people within your barrier or critical control system - threat or adaptable strength? What are some fallacies of human performance, like being unreliable bad apples, and how best to incorporate the strengths of people, while limiting performance variability? Today's paper is from McLeod, R. W. (2017). Human factors in barrier management: Hard truths and challenges. Process Safety and Environmental Protection, 110, 31-42.
