Consideration of Human Factors

SIRE

OCIMF guiding principles on human factors
These guiding principles summarise what we know about human factors and how we understand and address them. We use the principles asa simple script to talk about human factors, and as guard-rails for the improvements we make.

• People will make mistakes• People’s actions are rarely malicious and usually make sense to them at the time
• Mistakes are typically due to conditions and systems that make work difficult• Understanding the conditions in which mistakes happen helps us prevent or correct them
• People know the most about their work and are key to any solution• Plant, tools and activities can be designed to reduce mistakes and manage risk better• Leaders help shape the conditions that influence what people do• It matters how leaders respond when things go wrong. Take the opportunity to learn
